I recently hosted a corporate event at this resort, and overall it was a fantastic experience thanks to the beautiful lawn and a well-set stage where everyone enjoyed the evening. However, my stay in the room fell short of expectations with issues like cramped space and poor maintenance. While the service was responsive and supportive, there are still areas that need improvement, particularly in how guests are managed and treated. The food was top-notch, which made up for some of the downsides.
