Absolutely Incredible in Every Way!
Pros:

From the moment we arrived, Rusack Hotel delivered an experience that was nothing short of magical. Every detail , from the elegant design to the warm, welcoming staff, was perfectly executed. The check-in process was smooth and friendly, making us feel instantly at home.

Our room was stunning: spacious, immaculately clean, and beautifully appointed with thoughtful touches that showed genuine care. The views were breathtaking , waking up to the old course and ocean just outside the window was pure bliss. The bed? So comfortable we actually looked forward to sleeping in!

The service throughout our stay was exceptional. Every person we interacted with was attentive, professional, and genuinely happy to help. Whether it was dinner recommendations, arranging transport, or just offering a smile, their service elevated the whole experience.

Breakfast each morning was a delight, fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. And the hotel’s atmosphere (beautiful interiors, perfect lighting, peaceful vibe) made it a joy to relax and unwind.

In every way , comfort, aesthetics, service, food, location, Rusack Hotel exceeded our expectations. If you want an unforgettable, five-star stay, this is the place. We can’t wait to come back!

Cons:

There are no negatives to mention
