My stay at this resort spa was quite pleasant overall. The rooms were absolutely beautiful, spacious, and impeccably clean. I really appreciated the friendly staff, who often seemed to be cleaning and maintaining the area even when it looked fine. However, the dining options could definitely use some improvement, as I found the meals to be lacking and service there quite slow. The hotel's facilities, especially the pool area, were great, making the experience enjoyable, but it would be ideal if they managed parking better.
