Over hyped, over priced and WAY under delivers. It is truly a shame when someone takes such a beautiful location and turns it into a racket. Trust me, you'll have a better experience staying at a Marriott and buying a spa package from a real spa. The other reviewers point out an experience similar to ours.
Rates = way to high for what you get. Food = The 3 meals we received were not even as good as most high school cafeterias. Bland, no true vegetarian or otherwise modern healthy food. Facility = only "state of the art" if you are talking about 1980's facilities. Small, bland architecture and not at all in harmony with the environment. Overall, things were in minor disrepair anywhere you looked. Trails/paths were not well maintained and a bit dangerous to walk on, especially in the dark. Staff was marginally friendly and helpful but were not doing a very good job. Example: Dishes from dinner were still on tables while breakfast was being served and the woman attending the pool actually started trying to run guests off hours before the pool closing time.
Oh, and I think everything is for sale... art, books, tapes.
I could go on and on... bottom line, absolutely wonderful location in the hills and bordering the nature preserve... but spend your hard earned money somewhere else.
Pros: Location
Cons: Virtually everything else
