Remarkable views from every window in our villa. But more important, the staff at Azur made us feel like VIPs. Last but not least, the chef created some unique, unforgettable breakfast dishes.

Staff were friendly but room was disappointing. Looked out onto a wall! We didn’t opt for a Mountain View but didn’t expect a wall! Also in order to park cost of $35 a night.Be warned, difficult to find somewhere to park on the road and we’re not in busy season. Music audible early in the morning too which was disturbing after a 5 hour drive previous day
