From arrival to departure, our stay was magnifique! The staff was incredibly hospitable, the accommodations were some of the best I’ve experienced, and I fell in love with the toiletries! My only complaint (not really a complaint) is that I was unable to purchase a bottle of the body wash and lotion before I left. 5 stars!
