Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Although this is a very beautiful property, their focus during our time was on an upcoming wedding. Bar was closed and minimal dining options. We felt like an "after thought"and probably were. Our breakfast was very average. Our room was nice but overall unless you are attending a wedding there, I would pass on this property.

The toilet was dirty and not cleaned probably, wet towel left over taps in sink, and shower leaked all over floor and took them over an hour to clean the water up
