This property is nothing but beautiful and in a peaceful location, though I would day some of the services in the pool bar area was not upto the standards one would expect as a 5 start resort. Furthermore, vegetarian options were very limited for lunch and dinners. Breakfast, however was excellent! Shoutout to Isabella on the reception desk, she was excellent!! Made my check- in process so smooth. Loved the hotel beach, quite spot to relax and kayaks were available too to venture out on some water sport activity.

The property and surrounding area was lovely, but despite daily requests for vegan options for breakfast and dinner pre-paid for and emailed to hotel it was very limited. Last afternoon asked if they could make a vegan burger for evening and was given risotto and only buffet food was carbs rice and chips but saw on bar menu vegan burger. So service was poor in that respect. Also drinks prices very high, shower gel and shampoo in room but no conditioner. Received a bottle of wine for using Expedia but no cork screw, when asked for one told I would be charged room service fees
