The house’s unique architecture - the way half of the house was opened up, for a pool and massive trees and plants and the way the sun shone through was truly special. The furniture and comfort and amazing decor was extremely pleasing. The bed was very comfortable, and I had an excellent massage. The staff were wonderful, efficient and very helpful.
