The restaurant Dash was delicious and although you could also have breakfast (until 11 am) at the sister property by the water, we preferred it upstairs. The spa was also lovely. Had a pre-departure pedicure (lying down) and facial. We will be back for sure and will explore the Manor next time. Read less

The view of the mountain at breakfast or an evening drink with the sunset capped it all off. Thanks for a great stay. Read less

We enjoyed breakfast every day at the hotel and the one evening meal we had in-house was amazing. The staff were always smiling and nothing was ever a bother.… Read more
