During my stay, I found the resort to be adequate with some nice features. The pool was clean and inviting, and the gardens were lovely. However, the dining experience left much to be desired, particularly with the restaurant service being disorganized. The location wasn't ideal as it required quite a walk to reach the beach, which was disappointing. Overall, it was a pleasant stay, but there are definitely areas that need improvement.
