Absolutely incredible stay! The hotel is set in the most beautiful grounds with nature and wildlife all around and easy access to the local beach and nature trails! We stayed out of busy season so the pools and facilities were very quiet. Rooms were spacious and well equipped and the staff went above and beyond. Food and drink was expensive so we ate in local restaurants. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back! A true 5 star experience!!
