We had a wonderful two night stay at Matt’s! It is a beautiful location that we keep returning to time and time again. Wonderful hosts that are friendly and very accommodating. We highly recommend staying here!
They were welcoming, however in terms of amenities there was no toilet paper when we arrived. Other than that, the place was nice. We enjoyed our time there, the resort is beautiful and great resources, the pool, the sauna, etc.

Glad you enjoyed your stay, and we were able to accommodate early check in on a next day booking, as we had guests checking out that same day! Sorry our cleaner missed putting extra rolls under the sink, but as soon as you messaged me she brought 2 extra rolls to your door within 20mins.
