My stay at this resort was quite the mixed bag. While the accommodations were spacious and luxurious, my experience was marred by cleanliness issues and limited dining options. The service had its ups and downs, and overall, I didn't feel it lived up to its five-star reputation, especially given the high cost of my stay.
