大有所获 / 远非失望 / not disappointed in the least

In my opinion it's 大有所获

Normally when I hear or use this kind of phrase, it the opposite of whats being said. So far from disappointed would mean your not disappointed in the least (一点也不失望). maybe like 远非失望

Another example:
Your account is far from (being) true/is far from the truth.
你所说远非事实.
