Staff were very friendly but I asked a few times for a Palm tree branch to be trimmed back as it was scratching on the roof and making a really loud noise inside the cabin. Even after multiple complaints nothing was done about it (2 minute job to trim), which woke us up multiple times during both nights of our stay.
