9.4/10 Exceptional! (105 reviews)
Amazing place. Can’t fault a single thing. We stayed in a two bedroom suite and it was amazing. Staffs are very polite and helpful. Always ready to help with a buggy. Spa was amazing in a very scenic set up. Secluded yet just a few mins drive to main city centre. Pool area is nice but the pool is rather small. Breakfast is very good, made to order. Complimentary guided trek to little Adams peak just behind the resort. They gave discount vouchers for Ravana pool club and zip lining but we didn’t have time to try. Overall fully recommend.

"Beautiful property. Lovely pool. Originally had a Heritage Room but we asked to be moved to a garden room due to excessive noise from wedding photoshoots! Shame because otherwise would have been a perfect stay. Staff were lovely."
