the golf course views were decent i suppose. nothing to write home about, but acceptable.
the wedding situation was a disaster there were multiple weddings and the noise was constant. service suffered too. i asked for a simple thing like a bottle of water and it took ages to arrive. the staff seemed more focused on the wedding guests, charming for them, but less so for regular paying folks.
