acceptable breakfastparking feehidden costs
The buffet breakfast was acceptable.
The parking fee felt ridiculous. It's in the middle of nowhere. I found extra hidden costs popping up that weren't clear beforehand. To use the pool during the day, you had to pay the full spa cost. That seems excessive.

The breakfast buffet was fantastic. The spa is the BEST I have ever been to. I liked that drinks were brought to me at the pools. The "glasses" are actually plastic, but they are good quality!!!
I ordered a pizza from the lounge bar after seeing it advertised. It had a horrible frozen base.

breakfast offered a good choice of items.
the last time i visited was before restrictions, i found the spa access to be quite limited this time. access was restricted to specific hours. the outdoor pool required a separate charge, and it was fully booked. this felt unrelaxing.

I was thankful for the friendly staff and the beautifully maintained grounds. There were even rabbits hopping around. i appreciated that the hotel is pet-friendly (a great bonus for animal lovers!). i liked the package we got on arrival. It included a dog bed, towel, bowl, and some treats.
Access to the pool was limited. It should be open to residents at all times without extra spa costs.
