Xandari is a beautiful and peaceful escape. The surroundings are breathtaking, with lush gardens and stunning views. The food at the restaurant was fresh and flavorful, and the staff made me feel truly cared for. My room was spacious, the bed was very comfortable, and I left feeling completely refreshed. I can’t wait to return!
