“The expansive views of the dam and surrounding mountains create a truly tranquil escape, enhanced by staff who are notably pleasant and helpful. It's a setting that feels both private, even when busy, and rich with activities from spa treatments to horse riding. The well-maintained chalets and the opportunity to observe local wildlife add to its distinct character.”
