“An Excellent Weekend”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 May 2013 NEW

I had very high expectations of this resort, due to previous reviews and the high cost of this vacation. I can gladly say that we were not disappointed. We booked a couples package that was fairly all inclusive, and I would recommend it for others if they only have a short time to visit and don't plan to leave the... More

“"Jewel on the Hill"”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 May 2013

I've been reluctant to say anything disparaging about this resort after all of the rave reviews that have been posted. It must have been my presence of mind on arrival and extremely high expectations. I was on a one week package...with many treatments and sessions included....all treatments were excellent...however I found myself very busy keeping up with my schedule...there is... More

Went with a group of women last spring. Did a review, but I see it's no longer posted. The spa is large and busy. Services - meh...not great. Hotel service not great - poor check in experience.

“Excellent staff & accommodations”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 May 2013

First and foremost, the staff was excellent throughout; very courteous and friendly. We were greeted whenever we ran into one of them whether down the hall or on the grounds. As we headed for one of the many trails, one of the groundskeepers even stopped his tractor to offer help in case we were lost. The room was large, probably... More

“A jewell of luxury and spectacular views”

This was the perfect 3 night getaway for my wife and I on a second honeymoon. Our lakeview room was superbly furnished, and the unique European design was evident right from the start. We loved the amazing tub right next to the ceiling to floor glass wall, overlooking Okanagan lake far below us. A good network of beautiful trails surround... More

Went for one night with 3 girlfriends to celebrate a 50th birhtday for one of them. The only negative thing was we only spent one night! Two nights would have been ideal. We felt like we were so far from home at this unique place, yet we were only 40 minutes from home. We are so lucky to have such... More

Even if just a one night stay, this is the resort to be at for a relaxing, superb getaway. The setting is spectacular, the rooms luxurious, and the Spa so divine! We would highly recommend this experience to anyone! We rented three rooms for our family and all of us enjoyed every minute!
