My stay at the resort was a wonderful experience! The spacious layout of the hotel, divided into clusters, ensured privacy and comfort while providing access to beautiful pools. The service was exceptionally attentive, with a special mention to the fantastic restaurant that offered delicious meals at great prices. While it wasn't the quiet escape I hoped for due to many families with children, it was still an enjoyable stay overall.

I had a lovely stay at the resort, and I only wish we had more than one night!

However, I recommend staying for at least two nights to truly appreciate this beautiful place and its amenities.

I really enjoyed my stay overall, especially the beautiful layout of the resort and the accessibility to nearby attractions. The rooms had a nice earthy feel, perfect for a group getaway.
