The Saxon Hotel is a serene oasis with beautifully landscaped grounds and luxurious villas that provide a relaxing atmosphere. The service was attentive, particularly with the personal butler, but dining experiences could be enhanced, as some services were inconsistent. Overall, it's a fantastic spot for relaxation, but the dining options fell short of expectations considering the upscale nature of the hotel.

I recently had an incredible stay at the hotel, where we were treated like royalty during our short visit. The elegance and beauty of the place left a lasting impression, and while the luxury suite provided a fabulous experience, the dining could use some improvement. Despite a couple of minor hiccups, I left feeling eager to return for a longer stay.
