The resort spa offers a tranquil escape with its clean and comfortable rooms, complemented by friendly staff. I enjoyed the luxurious atmosphere, though the dining experience, particularly the breakfast, could use some improvement. The amenities, including the spa and pool area, made my stay enjoyable, but the Wi-Fi issue was a bit inconvenient since it wasn't included in the package.
