Lots of ants in the room - to be expected in this location. The property was beautiful with lots of greenery, birds etc. The hot springs were great, as was the pool. The breakfast was nice and we enjoyed a couple of meals at the hotel but got tired of the food pretty quickly and had to venture out for different options

Clean room. Amenities at hotel were nice. Sometimes in evening felt ignored if you were not directly in the restaurant for food. Hot tub great and individual room hot tub nice. A little bit too hot. I wish there was a way to add some cold water to moderate it. Grounds lovely and felt very private. Felt safe. Nice to walk around. Staff overall nice and helpful. Clean rooms and towels.
