Our stay at the spa resort was really enjoyable, with spacious, clean rooms and a variety of fun activities to keep us entertained. The highlight was definitely the hot pools, where we spent a lot of time relaxing. However, we did encounter some issues with the bathroom cleanliness in our studio, and the dining experience could use some improvement. Overall, it's a great family-friendly getaway that we would consider returning to.
