Resort renovations:

The resort periodically undertakes renovation projects aimed at significantly enhancing our guest experience. The lobby bar, one of the restaurants, the cultural center, the fitness center, and the meeting spaces are all scheduled to be completed in April or May 2026. Additionally, a new lounge is set to open in August 2026. The resort is diligently working to minimize any disruption to our valued guests while these important upgrades are in progress. Our unit is in a different building from the main lobby, where the renovation work is currently taking place.

We appreciate your understanding and patience as the resort works to transform itself to provide guests with the best possible experience, and we look forward to presenting a fully refreshed and upgraded resort. Furthermore, most units at the resort anticipate an increase in nightly rates following the completion of renovations. The rates have been temporarily reduced to accommodate the renovation process.
