This place is beautiful, It is in a secluded gated locked down area. Umm - you're pretty much locked in. Which is fine. But the amenities and food is super expensive. This place was more expensive than Bora Bora (for whatever reason). Yet, that Peruvian restaurant was well worth it. The Beach club downstairs via the funicular was also good. Why the 3-star rating? (1) Our butler was a bit useless and umm -- lazy. We didn't feel engaged and he did not cater to us when we really needed it. (2) The toilet door and lock is designed poorly where it locked us out. (3) The Mexican and breakfast restaurant staff kept messing up our food order. And not to mention, like slooooooowwwww. Interesting enough, the slooooooowwwww service has mentioned in other reviews. Because of the poor service, we cannot fully recommend this place.

For the price, just not the value you would expect. Menus limited. Service is slow. The spa is over priced and confusing. Setting was lovely but just not at all what I was expecting. Rooms quiet and clean. And comfortable.
