The resort was excellent and would stay again.
Pros:

The gardens were absolutely gorgeous I had no idea they would be so wonderful. Ruth from transportation was wonderful and very knowledgeable about the area. Front desk staff was also excellent.

Cons:

Some random loud person was knocking on our door in the middle of the night.

Pleasant and good.
Pros:

We didn't make use of any of the facilities other than the room and lounges for dinner and breakfast, both of which were good. The dinner lounge carried the distinct odour of bleach which was rather unpleasant. Changing tables/places helped the matter considerably. This is not a complaint, I am aware that cleanliness is a must.

Cons:

See above.

Pros:

The atmosphere was very spa like feeling. Very comfortable and relaxing. We enjoyed our room, outdoor springs and indoor pool.

Cons:

The bathroom ceiling paint is peeling and door trims are skuffed up. Indoor pool fencing also scuffed up. For the money we are paying, these should be addressed in patching and painting.

In general we had a nice time and would consider staying here again, hopefully the pool loungers and room situation wil
Pros:

Very rustic and quaint. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The pool staff and housekeeping were exceptional- Thank you so much Amy for the refreshing drinks poolside on a scorching hot day 😎

Cons:

The building in general definitely needs updating and renovation. Our room, which was in the unattached building 100s section had a musty scent, probably due to the age of the building, which was bothersome. Doors should have Security going in and out of our building, especially at night, it was just open access to our hallways, room key sensors to enter the building should be considered. The pool itself was mediocre. Although the pool staff was wonderful there were not enough
loungers to accommodate hotel guests. Allowing day passes during busiest times for non hotel guests may help avoid this situation. The water cleanliness could be better maintained as far as cleanliness because of the amount of people in and out of the pool as well.

Great place for a weekend get away.
Pros:

Pool and Spa: They have both indoor and outdoor pool. The indoor pool setup like a greenroom which also have enough natural light coming in. Combine with Sauna and hot spring. It's an amazing relaxation experience. The only problem is you can only use the facility until 12pm while the checkout is 11am. The timing is slightly off.

Cons:

The restaurant quality for the price I would expect better food.
