Really good Dining Experience

During my stay, I enjoyed breakfast at the Long Pavilion every morning. The extensive a la carte menu provided delicious options such as the omelet and chia pudding. Dining while overlooking amazing views added to the wonderful experience.

Unmatched Spa Retreat

I took part in the beach drop-off activity, and it was one of my favorite experiences. We were provided with a cozy setup complete with chairs and umbrellas. The service here truly enhanced the overall leisure experience.

Luxurious Bedroom Comfort

The bedroom in my pavilion was furnished with a comfortable king-sized bed and soft pillows. The turn-down service added a lovely touch, with chocolates and aromatic oils creating a serene atmosphere to come back to after a day of adventures.

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.

Overall, it was a nice stay but certainly not without its flaws.
