Staff is terrific.
Pros:

It’s a resort. Everything is close whether you’re going from the room to the pool or spa or restaurant. It’s also close to Toas plaza and close to local attractions.

Pros:

Beautiful property grounds

Cons:

Lots of bugs. Found two in our room and we also saw a snake around the property. Carpet in rooms that needs to come up. Stranger set up for bathrooms. No doors, curtains. Another nasty thing to get rid of. They were filthy.

Nice relaxing but expensive place
Pros:

Beautiful setting, new feel

Cons:

Staff was ok but not as welcoming as in similar priced resorts. Restaurant only served breakfast for one out of 2 days staying there. Breakfast is overpriced- massively.

Pros:

Landscaping was beautiful. The car valet and transportation staff were wonderful.

Cons:

Room was dated and worn for the price charged. Gym was dated and no mats. Cleaning staff left used coffee mugs by our door for two days and never replaced with clean mugs.

Super nice property, staff was very friendly and welcoming! Rooms need to be freshened up a bit.
Pros:

The property is absolutely beautiful, pool area is really neat. The restaurant and the whole property was decorated very nicely. All the staff we encountered were super nice and friendly!

Cons:

I feel like the rooms, at least the one we stayed in, needs some updating. Some of the furniture was broken and worn, the lamps had seen better days and kept tipping over because they were a bit wobbly, the room was stayed in wasn’t the cleanest. I feel like the price was a little high for the state of the rooms.

Pros:

Room was lovely, quiet, clean.

Cons:

Porches are so close together. I recommend putting an outdoor shade on each side of the porch that can be raised or lowered

Pros:

Myrth was my therapist and it was an unbelievable 80 min deep tissue massage.
I have had many massages over my 64 years and she is up there with my top 3 massages.
Very intuitive human!

Winter Bear was very helpful at the desk. Clear and concise and friendly

Pretty but disappointing
Pros:

We checked in to a lovely room with comfortable bed but it’s a long walk to some of the rooms with luggage especially in the rain. There was no lamp on one side of the bed, no plug ins of any kind for phones near the bed and the shower was not nearly hot enough. I expected more for the price.
