My stay

The room was large and comfortable. Not necessarily senior accommodating as my mom fell going into the bathroom. The restaurant was friendly and very good, but way too expensive. The pool was beautiful and well maintained. Customer service was great all around.

"Given the significant presence of French-speaking clients in the area, it would be highly beneficial to consider hiring bilingual staff who are fluent in both French and English. This would help better meet customer needs, improve service quality, and strengthen the establishment’s reputation for hospitality and linguistic inclusion."
