Fantastic stay. Beautiful grounds and so clean and tidy.

8/10 Very good

Great location for a long weekend.
We went for a long weekend, the location was great which allowed us to maximize our time. Only 10-15 minutes from the airport. The rooms are comfortable and property is beautiful. The food is okay, but not great. There's nothing nearby so you must eat all your meals here. Breakfast is a big buffet with lots of choice. Loved the yoga offered on the weekend. So sad that such a big hotel, can't offer yoga on other days as well. The spa is very beautiful.
