Lovely property. Punjab grill was excellent food. The only thing that could have been better was the pool area staff was not on top of it. We had to wait forever for drinks. The doorman Salman was amazing. He remembered our names, provided water for our excursions, and went above and beyond. He was excellent and ill remember his great service to customers.

10/10 Exceptional

The property was outstanding. The service by the doormen and valet staff was exceptional. Special call out to Salman and Devi. They took care of us like we were the only ones there. Also a special call out to Priya at the restaurant who took care of us on a couple of occasions and she was a delight.
