This hotel is a beautiful oasis with stunning gardens and a peaceful atmosphere. The amenities are top-notch, including spacious junior suites and excellent pools.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel with stunning views and beautiful grounds. The rooms were luxurious and spacious, perfect for relaxing after a long day. The breakfast was one of the best I’ve ever had and the private beach was a major highlight. However, there were some hiccups with the service, especially around the pool area, and the dinner prices were a bit steep for the portion sizes. Overall, it was a fantastic experience with just a few areas that could use improvement.

We had a lovely family vacation at this resort, enjoying the spacious rooms and well-kept grounds. The beach area was decent but required reservations for certain amenities, which was a bit frustrating. The dining options became repetitive after a few days, and service could improve. Overall, it was a nice stay, but not sure if we would come back due to the price and dining experience.

My wife and I recently stayed at this resort and found it to have many great features, particularly the staff and accommodations which were top-notch. However, the heated pool situation could definitely use some improvement as it became overcrowded with children. Overall, it’s a pleasant place but consider visiting during off-peak times if you're looking for a quieter experience.
