Loved it. A bit busy around the pool with loud DJ music, but that was only on 1 day, the Saturday afternoon. Kind of felt like a party than a relaxing spa experience. Otherwise, perfect place to stay. Beautiful hikes all around. Would recommend. 5/5.

First, Grant greeted us at the valet. He was so helpful, he made check-in easy. Our room was great. We had a view of the garden with a balcony on the second floor. The grounds and amenities are incredible. The highlight of our stay was undoubtedly Grant at the valet.

Best part of this hotel- the pool. The menu is great and the staff at the pool is super friendly. We booked a veranda king room and didn’t like the location of the room; the girl at the front desk was very reluctant to change our room and didn’t offer any sympathy. We notified the hotel it was our anniversary prior to checking in, but did not receive any special welcome at all during our stay. Property is clean and very pretty. Great dining options. Expensive self park, it’s 45 a day. 55 for valet. Wish the front desk staff was a little nicer, but they just didn’t care.
