Value for money spa

Spa at the resort is truly value for money. The massages and other services offered at the spa are indeed relaxing and come at a much cheaper cost than other similar spas. Guests specifically liked the hot stone massage where they said that the stones were hot only up to the desired level and the staff performing the massages did it very gently.
