The resort is beautiful. The buildings; the gardens; the pools; the food - all spectacular. Very peaceful. Delicious food in all the restaurants!! World class buffet breakfast and dinners. The staff - some were excellent and some weren't very friendly. The gardeners, in particular, were so knowledgeable about the flowers and trees - we really enjoyed learning from them.
