Great overall experience. Ask for room facing the pool, The complementary boat to the other side of the river near the centre is a great touch, traffic heavy in the city so allow extra time. Trains better than taking a taxi, or a Grab. Breakfast is a dream. Staff super helpful. Wellness centre is superb if you need a reboot. Would recommentd!

A lovely resort with lovely staff. One of the best resorts I have stayed in (and I have stayed in quite a lot). Drinks were a little expensive outside of happy hour, but I would certainly stay here again.
