Reviews and Ratings
I had a lovely stay at this resort, situated right by a river which offered stunning views. The staff was incredibly welcoming and helpful, making me feel at home. While the dining experience was good with some standout dishes, the cleanliness in certain areas could improve. The overall value for money is decent, but some amenities, like the spa, were a letdown.
Overall, my stay was pleasant, especially due to the spacious and clean rooms and the fantastic location by the river with beautiful views. However, the service at the spa left much to be desired as they were poorly managed and I had issues with my appointment. The dining experience was quite enjoyable, with some standout dishes. It's a decent place to stay for the value.
The resort has a beautiful location by the river, but the experience fell short in several areas. The rooms were spacious and clean enough, though some damage was evident. Dining options were fine, but the service, especially in the restaurant, needs significant improvement. The spa services were disappointing, which is unfortunate for a resort setting. Overall, it's decent value for money, but it could greatly benefit from better management and upkeep.
The resort has a beautiful location along the river with scenic views. The rooms are quite spacious and fairly clean, but there are some maintenance issues that need addressing. Although the staff is polite, the service left a bit to be desired, and I found the spa not up to par. The dining options were decent but limited, and overall, it feels like it has potential but requires more attention to details.
I stayed here while on a group tour, and overall it was a decent experience. The room was lovely and had a boutique feel, but there were some areas needing improvement, like the dining options and the number of sunbeds by the pool. The location was a pleasant surprise, as it felt friendly and non-commercialized, which I appreciated.
