Beautiful Grounds

The grounds were absolutely beautiful. There were so many choices for swimming. We had the private thermal pool which was amazinig after a long hike or early in the morning to help wake up. The rooms are not huge but were big enough for a couple. The breakfast buffet was well staffed with lots of food choices. Will stay again!!

Our only regret is that we didn't have time to stay longer. Everyone was really friendly and helpful. We booked the double bed room w thermal pool because the king w thermal pool was sold out. It was the best two nights of our trip... the set up is perfect. The breakfast is really good too. The grounds were immaculate. The waiters and hosts were all great! We can't wait to come back.
