Rating8.1Adults OnlySix room categories including swim-up rooms with private pool access added in the 2022 renovation. No lifts to upper floors — a genuine consideration for guests with mobility concerns or who've packed heavily. The swim-up rooms are the standout upgrade for guests who want direct pool access without the daily sun-lounger competition.
