This was the best resort my husband and I have ever stayed at, the staff were so accommodating and friendly and we always had good laughs with them. They have the best recommendations for tours. The rooms will leave you speechless they’re so beautiful! The pools and springs are amazing and somehow even though there are a lot of guest it never feels too crowded.
