It was a spectacular day with gorgeous weather, the food and service was great. There was a miscommunication about our drinks included in the package, but it was quickly resolved by the server and her manager. Also, please consider having decaffeinated coffee as an option for those guests that cannot consume caffeine. We asked for it but it was not available. Overall, we had a great time.
