Highly recommend
Pros:

One of a kind, stunning, clean, very well constructed, incredible service. I came for the gardens as a plant lover and they were beyond my expectations. Truly the nicest gardens I seen on my trip and the set up of the hotel compliments them. Full of stairs and trails and spots to sit and just enjoy. I loved it

Cons:

It was an expensive night stay for one night, however I knew that going in to it and it was a treat to myself. Still worth the money in my opinion

Overrated
Pros:

The view

Cons:

They don’t accept cash in the restaurant, and this was important information that they didn’t mention.
The kitchen closes from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m.
I bought a cookie and it had ants in it.
I ordered my meat well done twice, and they still didn’t cook it properly. Also, the food is not good.

Stunning location and experience
Pros:

Location and the property itself are phenomenal. Feels like Lake Como. The garden is wonderful. The staff were super friendly. We had a shared bathroom work with other guests and it was always super clean.

Cons:

A lot of visitors are allowed on day passes so sometimes it feels a bit like you're fighting for space with them. Ideally they cap the entrance numbers and need a few more day beds

A stunning, unforgettable stay with incredible views and helpful staff — just a bit busier than expected with people tak
Pros:

We had an amazing stay at this hotel. The setting is absolutely breathtaking — nestled into the hillside with stunning views of the water, beautiful architecture, and lush greenery everywhere you look. It truly feels like a hidden paradise, peaceful and special, and the rooms and common areas are just as gorgeous as the scenery.
The staff were also incredibly helpful and kind throughout our stay, which really added to the overall experience and made us feel well taken care of.

Cons:

The only downside was that there were quite a lot of people constantly taking photos and videos of themselves around the property, which sometimes took away from the serene atmosphere.
