So i wouldn't call ot a spa and resort persay as much as its a family vacation spot. It was our honeymoon and we couldn't go anywhere without screaming kids running around. Couldn't even enjoy a night in the hot tub in peace and quiet cuz parents and their toddlers treated it like a kids pool. If you enjoy staying in your room the whole time for some relaxation then this is the place for you. But if you are looking for a quiet get away in nature this is not it. The restaurant on site did have great staff but options are very limited on food selection and definitely over priced for what you get. The overall location and atmosphere is gorgeous but again if you are using it as an get away escape you will be let down. The majority of guests there were families with multiple young kids running around with no respect for anyone elses space or privacy.
