Note that we've only stayed here off season so the summer experience may differ from ours. This is our 3rd year coming and we'll be back again!
Great value. 5 star service from the staff. Fantastic food and wine. We love to park ourselves in the bar, watching a game and drink wine and eat some wonderful bar food (the fresh made potato chips are scrumptious!) Bedding is luxurious and very comfortable. The spa is one of the best we've ever experienced. They have Balianese as well as Thai massage that is hard to find elsewhere and superior to all. The indoor pool/whirlpool is wonderful and relaxing and well maintened. Couldn't ask for a better, and economical romantic getaway!
