I had a lovely stay at this resort spa. The atmosphere was peaceful and the amenities were mostly excellent. My room was both clean and spacious, but I expected more luxury from such a place. The spa services were terrific but somewhat pricier than I anticipated, yet the experience was still worth it. One downside was the dining options; while they had some delicious homemade products, I wished for more variety that was a bit more cost-effective.
