I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms offer a stunning view of the mountains and are spacious and modern. The service was top-notch, with attentive housekeeping and a convenient free shuttle service. The location, perched on a hill with panoramic views over the bay, was simply breathtaking. Dining with a view of the bay was a delightful experience, although I wished for more diverse breakfast options. The facilities were luxurious and well-maintained, making my stay truly memorable.
