Paradise on earth
Pros:

It was truly paradise, we didn't want to leave. The breathtaking view, the wonderful friendly staff, the gardens, the pool - all fantastic! I can't rate this place highly enough, one of most wonderful places I have ever stayed in.

Cons:

Just a few more vegetarian options and salads on the menu would be good. Though the chef kindly made some delicious special dishes for me, it would be good to offer them regularly
