I recently stayed at a resort spa that exceeded my expectations in many areas. The location is simply perfect, as it's right next to the sand dunes, offering an incredible view. The rooms were clean and modern, providing a comfortable retreat. However, the service, while generally attentive, had some moments of inconsistency. Overall, the spa facilities were a highlight, but I think they could benefit from a bit more variety in the dining options.
