The property was stunning, and you felt very cared for. The decor was beautiful and comfortable. This was one of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed at. The only thing I did not like was that you could not use the spa even though you were a guest in the hotel. You had to pay a day spa fee or get a service. You should be able to use the steam room and sauna as a guest of the hotel.
