Really good experience

fine dining attentive staff diverse dishes cute atmosphere
Everything was top notch here. All of the staff members are very attentive to detail and friendly. The cuisine featured fine dining with great flavors and diverse dishes to suit various dietary needs. It is a vacation destination that allows one to destress easily and appreciate the great sunsets each evening. Thanks to everyone for the warm hospitality and cute atmosphere.
i found that the overall layout of the hotel felt a little uncomfortable and not very thoughtfully designed (perhaps just my personal preference).
