Civana is a beautiful resort that offers a wonderful blend of wellness activities and stunning surroundings. The food was consistently excellent, and the spa facilities were enjoyable. However, there were some annoyances like slow service in the restaurant and a confusing class sign-up process that could be improved. Overall, it’s a relaxing destination that shows promise but needs some tweaks to fully realize its potential.
