We enjoyed the soaking pool and it was so relaxing. The entire property was clean and just a relaxing energetic space. Adding this to our regular rotation of date night ideas!

Absolutely amazing service! Wonderful massage and soaking pools. Food wasn’t the best compared to everything else or I’d give a 5 star.
