My stay at the resort had its highs and lows. While the facilities, including the spa and health club, were outstanding, the rooms left a lot to be desired due to cleanliness issues and lack of proper ventilation. The location was decent, although a construction site obstructed the view from my room. The dining experience was enjoyable but could have been better with more options for breakfast.

The hotel has a beautiful spa area that offers a variety of relaxing treatments and facilities, providing a great escape. However, there were issues with cleanliness in the changing areas and some service lapses that affected the overall experience. The breakfast was adequate, but could be improved in terms of quality and service efficiency. Though our room was pleasant, the noise from construction was a downside, and the value for money didn’t quite meet expectations.
