The hotel has two pools. The adult-only pool measures 55 meters long and is suitable for swimming laps. The hotel also features elephant sculptures and paintings along the path to the lagoon wing. I saw a wood carving shop just outside the hotel, it offered souvenirs.
The gym needs more equipments.

mixed feelings about my stay

adult poolbeach proximityrestaurant availabilitylimited dining
the adult only pool was quite pleasant. its proximity to the beach was a plus.
the rotating availability of the restaurants made planning impossible. i found it odd they sold the hotel based on having three restaurant options but then reduced it randomly to two. this made dining choices quite limited.

The spacious room had sunlight streaming through expansive windows. It created a warm and inviting space. I savored leisurely breakfasts with fresh coffee and gourmet pastries each morning on the terrace, with the sun kissing my skin. Evenings were spent enjoying exquisite dinners at the elegant restaurant, its ambiance added to the pleasure.
