"As I was there in a quiet time, it was a luxurious experience. I really appreciated the Salt Village which is incorporated in the hotel, with wonderful eateries, breakfast and lunch cafes.. the resort is super comfortable but.. I suspect in holiday times there would be a real crush and perhaps the experience would not be as peaceful and easy."
