royal experience

pristine beach dedicated team beautiful design folk music
my stay included a visit to the pristine private beach, well maintained. the expansive swimming pool was very clean and regularly checked by the dedicated team. the hotel is undeniably beautiful, especially its design. folk music welcomed guests providing a grand welcome (a nice touch!).
i noticed limited shampoo was available. there was no conditioner. getting tea at breakfast required multiple requests, because they have one small kettle.
