    Review: 2026-06-01

    Loved the butler, housekeeping and the Terra and Zuma restaurants. The kids club disappointed: their daughter did not want to go back the next day.

    Review: 2025-06-24

    Praises the cleanliness, organisation and well-kept grounds. Lowered the rating because of high prices even for simple services and long waits for buggies.
