“The grounds here are truly beautiful, with the lodges and spa offering a serene escape that's hard to leave. While the spa facilities are a definite highlight, particularly the steam rooms and relaxation areas, the dining experience can be a mixed bag, with some finding the restaurant offerings pricey. It's a comfortable base for exploring, though be prepared for the drinks to feel a touch expensive.”
