Our stay was delightful! We spent a lot of time on the beautiful plantation with our stay in the Mckenzie Suite providing a perfect blend of old-world charm and modern comforts. The friendly staff made our experience even better. However, the wifi was a bit spotty, and the pool could use some attention. Overall, it was a memorable visit with breathtaking views and delicious meals.
