My stay at the resort was quite pleasant with a clean and modern atmosphere. The staff was exceptionally accommodating, making my experience enjoyable. However, I found the dining options slightly lacking, especially in breakfast variety. The spa facilities were luxurious, but the prices felt a bit high for some services. Overall, it was a good experience but could improve in the dining department.
