The facility was phenomenal and the staff - from our maid Marie to
Reo at the concierge desk - did everything to enhance our stay without our asking.

I have to give particular mention to the staff - warm, polite, efficient and calm (despite a busy weekend) and very professional from check in to helpful concierge (thanks Joey) to the excellent pool service.
