Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were spacious, comfortable, and exuded exquisite luxury with butler service included. The service was excellent, with friendly staff who went above and beyond. The location was perfect, nestled between White Sands and the sister resorts, offering beautiful paths for morning walks. While the dining choices were varied, the overall experience was occasionally marred by inconsistencies in service quality. The facilities were top-notch, offering everything I needed for a luxurious stay.
The hotel is set in a stunning location, surrounded by lush vegetation, making you feel like you're in the middle of a jungle. The rooms, while spacious and quiet, have a partially old feel to them. The service from the staff was incredibly kind and polite, ensuring a very enjoyable stay. The dining experience was fantastic, especially at the White Sands buffet. The facilities are top-notch, providing everything you need for a comfortable stay.
