    This wasn’t what I expected – Good or Bad?

    The food was delicious, accommodating dietary restrictions. Staff were attentive, making my stay enjoyable.

    Check-in was chaotic, with unprepared rooms and a lack of communication causing frustration.

    The open design brings in so much light, creating a serene environment perfect for unwinding. I enjoyed a personalized breakfast with a creative twist on traditional dishes, and the outdoor shower was a refreshing surprise! Be sure to explore the gym. it's well-equipped for travelers.

    Loved the spacious villa with a private pool. The cooking class offered a fun way to learn local dishes. Unfortunately, the gym had some equipment issues during my stay.

    The kids especially loved the interactive activities, and the vibe around the place made it a perfect family getaway. Relaxing by our private pool was a hit with everyone.

    My wife says that more family-friendly activities would be great.
