TESTIMONIALS

“We would like to say a big thank you for all of the hard work leading up to the day and especially on the day. The communication leading up to the day was everything I was looking for. We would definitely recommend The Resort to anyone looking for a “hub” for their wedding. It was great to have the ceremony, photos and reception in one location. We both look forward to coming back soon to celebrate our anniversary.” – Chloe + Michael

 

“We loved the accommodation, and we loved the reception venue. The bridal party and their partners stayed at the hotel. Also, it was like our own private place for a weekend. Our guests all had a great time, and all our guests had great things to say about the service, the food and, of course the drinks. Everyone especially enjoyed the indoor/outdoor aspect of the Reception.” – Charlotte + Andrew
