The numerous pools look great. I used the gym daily. It features treadmills and bikes.

beautiful gardensinconsistent cocktailsmixed wines
the gardens are beautiful, kept tidy all the time.
i don't think it's a true 5-star hotel, the restaurants were a problem. waiters sometimes filled glasses with different wines, mixing them. also, cocktails tasted different each day, made inconsistently with too much syrup sometimes.
