La Joya Lodge Conference Centre and Spa
Wonderful property with peaceful surrounds, spacious design inside and out, and good amenties. However it is spoiled by an obvious management policy that's shoved in your face the minute you enter the property that you are not allowed to bring your own alcohol and if youy do, it will be confiscated ...
