Paradise on the hill!
Loved our trip to The View! The pods are so unique, lots of privacy and a great view from every unit! The road wasn't as bad as I thought at all, so had no trouble in our AWD Kia Sportage. The pool was beautiful, and staff so friendly.

Fabulous setting and beautiful views from the room and pool. Staff were absolutely brilliant - all friendly and helpful and did everything to make my stay comfortable even with social distancing. There are some good hikes close to the hotel if you don't want to drive back down the rough road (although it wasn't as bad as I'd feared). On the down-side, wifi is only available in limited areas, the pool looked like it was due a clean and there are a few little bits of maintenance that make it slightly tired looking such as missing or broken lights on the walkways. At this price, these are things that should be fixed.

Great experience!
It was a great experience! One of the very unique hotels I have ever stayed in. It would be great if you could extend the check out and heat the pool.
