However, I heard some guests had issues with their rooms and service at the front desk, which can be a drawback. Overall, it’s an excellent resort with a few minor hiccups.

I recently stayed at this resort and, to be honest, my experience was quite disappointing compared to previous visits. The beach remains stunning, and the gardens are beautiful, but the service and food options fell short. There are ongoing renovations that made some areas less enjoyable, and it seems like they’ve cut back on amenities that used to make this place special. While the staff was friendly, the lack of dining choices, especially at night, really put a damper on my trip.
