Overall, my stay was a mixed bag. The rooms offer great privacy and views, making it a lovely getaway, but the service fell short of expectations on several occasions. The breakfast options were fresh and interesting, but the dining experience was marred by booking issues. While the amenities were impressive, the service definitely needs some tuning to match the resort's luxury promise.

I had a mixed experience at this resort. The views were absolutely jaw-dropping, and the breakfast options were both fresh and exciting. The personal touch from the staff added to the enjoyment, but the service fell short overall, especially during busy meal times. While my room was spacious and well-designed, certain aspects like the response times and attention to detail need improvement for the price we paid. Overall, it was a nice stay but certainly not without its flaws.
