Decent Stay

friendly staff beautiful presentation missing towels digger proximity
The restaurant staff showed true dedication.. Their efficiency and friendliness. The views were indeed lovely and the atmosphere was relaxed. Breakfast was perfect. Its presentation was beautiful.
I had to ask for towels, a minor inconvenience. I was not informed about changes to the spa.. Diggers were within 5 meters of the hot tubs and inside the relaxing room.

generally positive, but some issues

excellent food casual restaurant great service room temperature temperature information spa showers
the restaurant offered excellent food. Dinner in the main restaurant was enjoyable one evening. The more casual restaurant was also very nice. Staff demonstrated great service.
the room's temperature was hard to regulate, sadly. The thermostat seemed to only provide temperature information. There was no hot water in the morning, so i had to use the spa showers.
