We have been fortunate to stay in some of the best hotels in the world but this quickly became our favourite. Here you can experience service beyond belief! Every wish is your command. It's as though every staff member has magical powers to read your mind and then deliver more than you could ever have dreamt. Mark the Manager was... more

Imagine a rustic pristine setting with outrageous luxury pampering.The setting is beyond belief, right on the water. We have all traveled extensively and sampled some of the greatest hotels in the world. The Point is now one of our favorites. My wife and went in September for my 50th Birthday and discovered it to be a top notch service oriented... more

A beautiful setting. Gorgeous rooms. Terrific small touches -- gas tank of car filled upon leaving. Lovely staff. What happened to the food? The food we ate was at best uneven and at worst really sub-par. Some examples would be: at dinner the only course out of four that was at all acceptable was the meat. We were not the... more

My husband and I stayed at The Point for a long weekend to ceebrate our 20th anniversary the weekend of May 5th. There are not enough good things to say. From the moment you arrive in a setting of spectacular lakeside beauty - to the non check-in process - you are just offered champagne and taken to your room, followed... more

The Point takes customer care to an entirely different level. For example, one day we asked if we could have lunch on the lake on one of the property's boats. Unfortunately the boat in question had already been booked my another guest, so as an alternative the General Manager took us out to an island on the lake and set... more

I spent 2 nights at The Point in June 2006. The Point is in a class by itself. I have stayed in many of the world's top hotels and The Point surpasses all of them. The lodging is beautiful, an old hunting lodge decorated to perfection in rustic style. What really sets The Point apart is the quality of the... more

I'd heard such great things about The Point... and I wasn't disappointed. It is very, very special. Yes, it is expensive, but considering it's genuinely all-inclusive, you could spend a lot more at a high-end hotel in one night in New York City. The most wonderful aspect of The Point is the staff. Everyone here seems to genuinely adore working... more

My wife and I stayed at the Point based upon tremendous critical acclaim in the national press. Our experience was less than overwhelming. The arrival experience is first rate, giving the sense that you are entering a private estate; which in essence it is. However, after being shown through the gates and directed to the main building, we felt lost.... more
