"Checkin went smoothly and the room was nice. My only issue was the breakfast, they had a nice varity but only 1 or 2 of things (one english muffin or two chocolate milks). I noticed this every morning (going different times each day) for my 5 day stay. The eggs were warm at best and when I asked if they had a microwave to warm them up, I was told NO without an explanation or additional information. I would recommend anyone staying here but take the breakfast back to your room to warm it up...

"Wanted a staycation to just getaway for the weekend with the husband. Wanted a quiet place to decompress. They delivered. Not you fancy, frou-frou, Four Seasons. But if you want a beautiful escape from the world, this is it. Enjoyed the wine tasting and touring the wine cellar (sooooo cool!). Lounged out by the pool. Did yoga in the meditation garden. Fed the koi fish. Definitely want to go back. It felt like we were going back in time to Tuscany or the south of France. "
