The hotel is in a prime location, nestled around the beautiful golf course, making it a great spot for a getaway. The rooms offer stunning views, particularly from the balconies, and are quite spacious. However, the dining experience could use improvement as it felt quite ordinary. Additionally, the facilities, especially the spa services, have a lot of potential but were a bit underwhelming compared to what you might expect from a spa hotel.

I recently visited this hotel for a relaxing getaway and while there were some highlights, there were also significant downsides. The spa treatments were a standout, leaving my daughter and me feeling rejuvenated after our massages. However, the cleanliness of our room was highly disappointing and really affected our overall experience. The bar area was cozy, but some of the staff's service could have been more pleasant. Overall, I received decent value for money, yet my experience with the room left much to be desired.
