While some mountain views might be partially obscured, the natural beauty and wildlife, from zebras to abundant birdlife, are a constant delight. The grounds are beautifully kept, and the attentiveness of the staff, evident even in quick responses to minor issues, makes for a remarkably peaceful and well-cared-for stay.”
