What Creators Are Saying

Selected quotes from our creator panel.

The Good

five out of five nothing was too much trouble attentive and the lady even made my tea correctly

It was fabulous. Um yeah, I had the uh the vegan starter mane and dessert and they were all wow.

We got so lucky with ours, we were assigned Mighty Mouse. but an absolutely top guy.

We're staying here all day till sunset. Getting picked up at 6:00. It's a full on day. Gorgeous, gorgeous place on Antigga.

It's a great cabin. We love it, don't we?

The Watch-outs

we were awoken again about4 to 6 to more noises I just can't believe that two cabins could be so bad

it's pretty obvious that's not what's underneath and that's why the cabin was probably empty from the start

I think you'll agree it's a little bit of a design error on cod's part

we really love this cabin and we have been quite happy to stay here but unfortunately this gorgeous cabin was ruined by the noises

we've been woken again at an Earthly hour uh and I don't think I can do this for the full fortnite
