Beautiful accommodation and swim and spa facilities - breakfast was disappointing on a number of levels
Pros:

Accommodation was excellent

Cons:

We had the buffet breakfast which was very disappointing / fruit plates were not refilled regularly - we were at an 8am sitting - ordered a coffee which tool 25-30 minutes to bring and then it was boiling hot and I couldn’t drink it for another 10 minutes which was impossible as we had a boat cruise booking - suggest a decent coffee machine option / there are plenty of quality coffee commercial coffee machines

We were lucky to be upgraded to a one bedroom apartment with balcony and lake views. Was very nice, clean, tidy and spacious.
