nice spa and room experience

professional therapist spacious rooms
I enjoyed the sea salt detox treatment at the spa. Shiolah, my therapist, was professional and unobtrusive. the rooms were spacious with wonderful views (it's something!). the bar staff were friendly and accommodating.
The lack of a steam room in the spa was a slight disappointment. I hoped for that facility to complement the sauna. more variety of options would have enriched my relaxation.

The pools provided ample space for relaxation. Swan shower heads were a great way to relieve tension at the shoulders. however, i missed having a steam room. That would have enhanced relaxation.

Kanchan gave me an excellent hot stone massage during my spa day with my husband. The experience was really relaxing.. the pool was also lovely. I received a complimentary late checkout and luggage storage. All staff members were helpful.
I found the car parking to be expensive.

faulty air conditioning numerous flies
The breakfast offered numerous choices to eat and drink..
The air conditioning did not work making the room uncomfortably hot. We opened the door to try and cool the room down, yet this led to numerous flies inside. Staff had to vacuum the ceiling overnight because of this. Considering the price paid for the stay, I found this very disappointing

very pleasant stay

comfortable bed good amenities excellent advice
the hotel was lovely. the bed was really comfortable and all amenities was well stocked and good quality. we visited the spa as a couple and had back, neck, shoulder, and head massages from hema and marzena. hema gave me excellent advice about future therapies that would benefit me in addition to the excellent massages i really appreciated.
i booked a double a month in advanced but got a twin accessibility room with a night light you couldn't turn off. they refuses to compensate in any way despite the false advertising. terrible as it'll continue to happen to others, honestly shocked at everyone involved.
