While the resort offers beautiful surroundings and spacious, clean rooms, its quiet atmosphere may not be ideal for everyone. The service and dining options could use improvement, and the location requires some travel to access local amenities. Overall, it might suit those seeking a serene getaway, but it fell short of expectations for us.

The resort is set in the hills with a beautiful view, but the location is remote, and getting to town or shops requires a shuttle ride.

Our stay had its highs and lows. The property itself is stunning, nestled in a jungle-like setting with great views and spacious rooms. However, the dining options were subpar, and we consistently encountered issues with service, especially regarding bar availability and food temperature. Overall, while the natural beauty is impressive, the dining experience and service aspects definitely need improvement.

The hotel is located in a beautifully landscaped area, but getting to amenities requires a lot of walking or relying on golf buggies.

My stay at the resort was unforgettable, with spacious and well-equipped accommodations that include stunning ocean views. The staff were incredibly attentive and made my experience truly special.

I spent a weekend at this resort, and for the price of about $150 a night for two, it was a decent getaway. The staff were the absolute highlight—always friendly and helpful. However, noise from ongoing construction and some dining experiences left a bit to be desired. The pools were small but not crowded, and while the beach was a bit of a trek, the food there was much better than at the poolside. Overall, it was good value but had a few drawbacks.

Rooms

I had a mixed experience at this resort. While the rooms were spacious and well-equipped, and the food was generally great, there were significant issues related to service, particularly with our luggage mishap. The location offered beautiful views but was a bit remote, and getting to the beach required a shuttle. Overall, it had its highs and lows.

Rooms

Our villa was spacious, equipped with a mini fridge and had a nice balcony. However, dresser space was limited, which made it a bit challenging to store our clothes.

Service

The service staff were friendly and accommodating, and they even celebrated my husband's birthday with special decorations. However, communication during our luggage loss situation was lacking.

Location

The resort is located on a hillside with lovely forest surroundings, but it's quite far from the beach, requiring a shuttle that doesn't run frequently.

Dining

The food was generally very good, with a great buffet and delicious meals at the a-la-carte restaurants. I particularly enjoyed the poolside snacks.

Facilities

Facilities were decent, with well-maintained areas and beautiful grounds, but the swimming pool could be better integrated with the overall resort layout.
