This resort has spacious rooms and a peaceful atmosphere, making it a nice choice for families. However, it is still undergoing some construction and there are issues with dampness in certain areas. The dining options are varied, but there could be improvements in terms of service around the pool. Overall, it offers good value for a relaxing getaway.

I had a pleasant stay at the Urban Valley Resort and Spa Hotel, where the staff were genuinely friendly and attentive. The rooms were spacious and clean, though some amenities felt a bit less luxurious than expected.
