How I ranked the rooms
I weighed privacy (standalone bungalows and private patios), space (suites and villas), and wellness features (dedicated fitness or spa access), plus who the room best suits (couples, families, wellness guests).
Where facts were required I used the resort’s published room types and on-site amenities — pools, spa, and The Retreat — rather than third-party opinions.
