I didn't want to leave my beautiful suite. Savon has excellent service overall. Their spa is an experience worth staying at this property for. Amazing hospitality by all the staff we encountered, from the GM to the butler. They even left us treats for our Anniversary celebrations with delicious chocolate-covered strawberries. We just missed their 25th anniversary celebrations the next day, but the preparations looked grand. Highly recommend staying here if you are in the area. ##### Leela Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Magdalene Nov 4, 2023 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities What a beautiful property!
