Staying at this resort spa was a lovely experience overall. The rooms were spacious and modern, and I really appreciated the convenient beach access. However, the dining options, particularly for breakfast, left a bit to be desired, and the pool area, while nice, was sometimes crowded. The value for money was decent, although some amenities came at an extra cost.
