special staffpoetic viewgentle melodymissing lotion

We came to celebrate our anniversary, and the staff made it special. we had the double or twin room sea view. Its view was like a poem. each morning, sunlight painted the room in soft hues. The waves whispered gentle melodies.

The bathroom lacked body lotion. A small detail, yet it would enhance the experience.
