The resort is an incredible find nestled among beautiful mountains, offering luxurious comfort and stunning views. My room was clean and spacious, overlooking an impressive pool, making it a great spot for relaxation, especially in the evenings. The breakfast was varied and delicious, but I found a few shortcomings in their dining options. Although the lack of a swimming pool on the property is a downside, the overall experience was fantastic, and I would love to return.

My birthday dinner at what was advertised as a five-star hotel ended in disappointment due to service failures and unprofessional staff. While the stay started with promise, mismanagement marred the dining experience. Despite my complaints, there were no efforts made to rectify the situation. On a positive note, the nice view and stunning location were highlights, but they weren't enough to justify the high expectations or costs.

I had a decent time at the hotel, which is quite beautiful and surrounded by nature. The rooms were clean and spacious, making for a comfortable stay. However, the dining experience left much to be desired, with breakfast options that could be improved. Additionally, while the location is serene, it felt a bit isolated from the city's amenities. Overall, it's a good getaway if you need some quiet time, but be prepared to venture into town for better dining options.
