The resort spa offers a relaxing escape with spacious and modern rooms, and the staff is incredibly welcoming. The pool area is fantastic for lounging, though the dining options could be improved, especially at breakfast. While the facilities are generally good, I found the Wi-Fi to be a bit frustrating as it wasn't complimentary and had to be paid for. Overall, it's a lovely spot for a getaway, but there are some areas that need attention.
