Hi! Love this article! I just wanted to mention that Sparkling Waters of Hanover now rents the entire 10 person villa, so the description way undersells. The pool photographed is for the villa. The Airbnb link provided to the cottage no longer works as it is now the Airbnb link to the main villa that is operational. Hope this is helpful!
