Decent location, some disappointments
outdated roompoor breakfast
The room I got, a garden view cottage, felt a little outdated. The bathroom had issues (I wasn't a fan of the open-air design that let insects in). The breakfast buffet was disappointing compared to other resorts I have visited. There was a lack of variety. the resort needs some serious maintenance updates.

I appreciated the lush, tropical landscaping that surrounded the resort. The location directly on the lake provided beautiful views (especially at sunset). I also found the on-site butterfly garden to be a peaceful and charming addition.
