Honest review
What could be better
- —The hotel needs to urgently improve staff training and professionalism, as guests reported rude and aggressive behavior, especially from management, and a lack of accountability for service failures.
- —The resort must be completely transparent about its policies and any disruptions, such as disclosing construction work, power outages, and parking fees prior to booking and check-in.
- —The hotel should ensure its services match its luxury branding, as guests found their experiences—from mismanaged photoshoots to lackluster lounges and unhygienic rooms—fell far short of expectations for a hotel of this caliber.

How we choose
Every hotel on this list is cross-checked across Google, Booking.com, Tripadvisor, Agoda and Hotels.com — plus first-hand traveler accounts on Reddit, Instagram, and TikTok.
