Very expensive for no reason. Choose somewhere cheaper.
Pros:

Beautiful hotel

Cons:

For $500+ per night there is an expectation that the room has high end products.

Bliss
Pros:

It is in amazing position with simple classy fit out.
Room and bathroom was spacious and had all you need for a nights stay

Cons:

The only thing that spoilt the stay was the food and drink menu around the pool.
Very ordinary with no healthy options.
Drinks out of cans .
Not what you would expect for a classy hotel
