"The moment we stepped onto the property, we felt like we were staying in a 5-Star resort. The location is breathtaking, and we enjoyed how close the three golf courses we played were. The views are nothing less than amazing. The free parking was another bonus since we rented a car, which allowed us to explore the area off the resort. All the restaurants had nice selections of food, and the buffet each morning was well prepared, with breads and meats. etc. We plan to return next year."
