Reviews and Ratings
I had a wonderful stay at this sprawling resort. The rooms were excellent, leading to the restaurants at night, and I enjoyed a delicious signature cocktail along with a plate of fresh fruit. The service was so friendly and helpful, always going the extra mile to ensure my needs were met. The location was simply breathtaking, offering stunning views and easy access to various attractions. The dining experience was impeccable, with beautiful setups and delicious meals. Overall, a fantastic experience with great value for money.
The hotel offers spacious rooms with beautiful outdoor showers and patios, featuring a 40-inch TV and super comfy beds, though some areas might be outdated. The service is exceptional, making guests feel like part of a family with their attentive and helpful demeanor. The location, while breathtaking, can be windy at times. The dining experience is highlighted by beautifully styled food, but with limited buffet choices. Overall, a great value for those seeking a relaxing stay with friendly staff and stunning surroundings.
