I can't rate this experience more highly. The place was immaculate, luxurious and at the foot of an incredible cliff/mountain in scenery that actually stole my breath. To use a couple inadequate words it was pure beauty. The receptionist was so welcoming and truer words than hers have not been spoken, "you'll regret only staying for one night".
