My stay at the resort was truly memorable. The luxury spa experience was a standout, and the food was exceptional, particularly the breakfast, which was the best I've ever had. The only downside was that some areas in the spa were crowded, which detracted a bit from the relaxation vibe. Overall, it was a wonderful experience that I can't wait to repeat.

My stay at Galgorm was a wonderful experience overall, especially with the exceptional treatments and gorgeous spa facilities. The private tub experience by the river added a lovely touch to our trip. However, I found that the spa area was quite crowded, making it less serene at times, and there was a brief hiccup with the jacuzzi booking. For the value received, I believe the experience was worth it, but some improvements could enhance the enjoyment.
