My stay at the resort was quite good, with spacious and comfortable rooms that made for a cozy retreat. The service was attentive, and I appreciated the helpfulness of the staff. However, the dining options left a bit to be desired, especially in terms of variety. While the location is convenient for the airport, it's not ideally situated for exploring the area, which is a downside if you're looking to venture out.

This resort has some great features, especially the clean and spacious rooms that are nicely furnished. The service from the staff was genuinely helpful and attentive, which really made a difference in my stay. However, I did notice a strong damp smell in my room, which was a bit off-putting. Also, the dining options were quite limited, and it would have been nice to see more variety on the menu.
