Food was the best I've tasted in a long time, buffet breakfast was amazing. So much choice and all completely fresh. Staff were superb, couldn't do enough and went above and beyond. Hotel was gorgeous, unfortunately though we never got a chance to go in the pool or spa. Room was nice, nothing special. ...
