Please accept our sincere apologies for the condition of the hot tub during your stay. We understand how disappointing this must have been, especially for the kids, and we truly regret that it did not meet expectations.
The hot tub is serviced on a regular maintenance schedule, and it should have been properly handled prior to your arrival. Unfortunately, this was not the case, and we are very sorry for the oversight. Once we were notified, our team worked as quickly as possible to address the issue, but we regret that it still disrupted your stay.
