Beautiful well kept hotel. We stayed in one of their suites overlooking the golf course. Partial view blockage from some high shrubs. Suite was very spacious and clean. Everything worked. Service all round was great. Staff were friendly and helpful. Only complaint is the lack of a refrigerator and microwave in the room. There was a “cooler” which puzzled us as to what its purpose was, because it certainly neither cooled anything down or kept anything cool. We would stay here again in a heartbeat and would definitely recommend it. We also played golf at the adjoining golf club. Again a wonderful experience, really well maintained course. My wife and I planned just one game, but couldn’t resist a second round the following morning. The course had a full range of challenges for every golfer. We rented clubs and the sets they gave us were spanking new and really high quality.

When you staying in Spa hotel, first of all you thinking about relaxing massage you gonna get upon arrival. We were lucky to get in very fast, we both were unlucky with the service we got. Everybody is super polite and nice, but you you position yourself as Spa hotel with massage services-train your staff to do proper massage, both of us got something far away what calls massage. It’s one of one 10. First disappointment. Room was very his and specious, dated, but that’s fine. Water pressure could be better, maybe because shower was leaking? Front desk ladies very polite and helpful. Restaurant ladies all very helpful, for breakfast and dinner. Nice walking path. Would I go back, if I ever in that area? Probably, no.
