I had a lovely stay at this resort. The location is truly stunning, with views of both the sea and the river. The landscape is beautifully done, perfect for unwinding. The staff was generally friendly and accommodating, though there were a couple of minor service hiccups. While the room was spacious and comfortable, it could use some updates. Overall, a solid experience but with some areas needing improvement.
