Self contained was missing basic essentials like a mixing bowl or bowl for microwave. They also overcharged my account and it is still not resolved 5 days later.
Michelle, 5-night trip

Nice 3 days break with the family

The Big4 was something different for our family of four. It is like an adventure seeing lots of different birds in the premises and listening to the birds every morning was a delight. The kids loved the pool and water park. The two bedroom villa was comfortable and the staff kind. I would like to come back but not in the same villa because it had a very bad odour. We bought an air freshener and opened the windows as I cannot describe how bad the villa smelled. Rather than that, we enjoyed it!

Place was generally very worn, needs a big upgrade. Shower head barely dribbled water. Was clean though.
