I had a wonderful stay at this resort which is beautifully set within landscaped gardens, offering calming pathways and a splendid view. The service was outstanding, with staff going above and beyond to ensure our comfort. Although the bathrooms could use some updating, overall, it was a revisiting experience where the warmth and attentiveness of the team truly stood out. It was great value for the money, especially given the quality of service and amenities.

We had a fantastic week at the resort, enjoying beautiful landscaping and various activities organized by the staff. The rooms were clean and spacious, perfect for our family, though there was some room for improvement in housekeeping. The breakfast experience was slightly marred by staff shortages, but overall, it was a relaxing stay that we are eager to repeat.

Our stay at this resort was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms offered a great view of the lake and were spacious, which was impressive. However, the dining experience fell short, being pricey and not up to the mark compared to other places. The location was fantastic, close to the lake and perfect for outdoor activities. The service was good overall, but some aspects could definitely be improved.
