I had a wonderful stay at the resort spa, where the ambiance was truly relaxing. The rooms were spacious and modern, making my time there very comfortable. The dining options were impressive, especially the breakfast selection. However, the pool could have been a bit larger for the number of guests. Overall, it's a great value for money given the amenities provided.

The spa treatments were heavenly, but I did find the dining options lacked variety, especially during breakfast.
