The best thing about this resort is the view. There are not many hotels where one can walk out of the door and enjoy a great balcony with views of the valley. One can go there repeatedly just to enjoy the view, especially at night with starry skies above and brightly lit Salem town below. Of course, the other positives are the various activities planned by the resort, decent restaurant, friendly staff, but the one this that sets this resort is the view.
