My stay included a spacious villa. This villa offered privacy with two floors. Dining at the Thai restaurant was a highlight thanks to the executive chef. His efforts enhanced our experience.

The decor in the villa could use some updating.

The living accommodation was gorgeous. I saw a spacious bedroom had a large bed, a lounge area, a bathroom, and a cloakroom. The fridge, coffee, and tea options were well-equipped. The grounds are fine. It is a calm and serene oasis with a huge and fine pool.
