quiet caravan stay

cute staff
the caravan was super clean upon arrival. staff were very cute. my stay was in may so it was quiet and restful (i appreciated this a lot). there was plenty of room in the caravan. i found it to be an ideal location for exploring the island.
the toilet facility wasn't properly cleaned. there were skid marks on the toilets. also, there was no hanging facility for my towel in the bathroom, a little inconvenient.
