My stay at the resort was a mixed bag. On one hand, the staff was attentive and accommodating, and the amenities were enjoyable. On the other hand, the room situation was very frustrating, as I was moved multiple times, and the room I ended up in did not match what I had booked. The dining options were decent, but I expected better considering the price.

The resort is visually stunning, with a beautifully maintained exterior. However, the service fell short, particularly with housekeeping and concierge, which left me feeling inconvenienced during my stay. While the front desk staff were friendly, the amount of time I spent requesting basic amenities like towels was frustrating. Overall, it has potential but needs significant operational improvements to match the resort's appearance.

I had a very mixed experience at this resort. The atmosphere was truly relaxing with beautiful views and great amenities, making it suitable for both families and business travelers. However, the lack of accurate information about shuttle services was disappointing, and some safety concerns arose during our stay, particularly during a power outage. Overall, it's a great spot for relaxation but needs improvements in communication and safety protocols.

My stay at the hotel was enjoyable overall; I found the staff to be exceptionally kind and helpful, making me feel welcome. The outdoor facilities, including games and pools, were a nice touch. However, I had some concerns regarding the dining options and the pricing of meals. While the environment was pleasant, I believe there's room for improvement in the food offerings, especially for breakfast, which felt a bit overpriced for what was provided.
