The property is beautiful, but what really stood out was the staff and level of service. All of the staff were extremely attentive, friendly, and helpful. We had dinner in the restaurant one night and did the tasting menu with wine pairing. Everything was incredible. Such a relaxing stay. I would gladly go back.

While the property is beautiful the rooms are not $700 per night worthy. They are barren, bathrooms very tiny, air conditioning barely worked. The balcony was wonderful however we've started at other properties with balconies with views and have spent considerably less, even in high demand areas.

Everything about our stay was amazing!!! From the friendly staff, our beautiful room, the delicious breakfast, and of course the VIEW!!! The location is so perfect, simply breathtaking and so easy to get to/from the train and the ferry. Highly recommend taking advantage of the Botanic Garden in the sister property next door, it’s incredible!
