10/10 Excellent
"The location was absolutely perfect—right across the street from the promenade! We loved taking an evening stroll before dinner. The staff was wonderful, especially Reza and Lenox, who drove the shuttle whenever we needed to get around. Breakfast was outstanding, and the service was wonderfully quick!"
