My stay at this hotel was absolutely wonderful. The view from our room was breathtaking, and the private plunge pool added a special touch. The service from the staff was among the best I've encountered, making us feel like family. However, reaching the hotel requires a bit of travel from the airport which might not be ideal for everyone, and the cost can add up quickly depending on the room choice. Overall, it provides excellent value for an unforgettable experience.
