My stay at this resort spa was quite pleasant with a stunning beach view and well-maintained amenities, making it a luxurious getaway. The staff was generally attentive and accommodating, enhancing the overall experience. However, I felt that the dining options could use some improvement, particularly at breakfast where choices were limited. The price was decent for what they offered, but the internet access being paid separately was a bit of a drawback.
