loved every second!
pleasant staffexcellent spaplentiful breakfastavailable lockers
the staff were super pleasant and well mannered. the facilities and spa were excellent as well as all the staff that worked there! breakfast was plentiful and delicious it really set me up for the day.
I found no lockers for hotel guests in the fitness suite. everyone seemed to be using mobile phones at the poolside and in the jacuzzi. It was a little distracting!
