The resort offers beautiful views, but unfortunately, it was quite disappointing overall. We faced numerous issues during our stay that overshadowed the positives. While it had spacious accommodations, the maintenance and service left much to be desired, making it hard to enjoy the facilities and the overall experience. Our family had a tough time especially with the cleanliness and staff engagement.

I had a delightful stay at the resort, especially enjoying the beautiful surroundings filled with charming birds and the spacious accommodations. The dining options were quite good, but I felt the restaurant could use a refresh in terms of decor and atmosphere. Overall, while my experience had some highlights, the cleanliness and maintenance in certain areas left something to be desired.
