    Magnificent location, eclectic and stunning interior design, warm & friendly staff, delicious food (for goodness sake have the butter chicken curry, it is life-affirming), and views for days that change every 10 minutes as the sun moves along its course. Highly recommend.

    A lovely property, very well thought out. The design aspects have been considered i will take some away for my own consideration! Comfy beds, a good shower and good facilities inside and out. The host communicated well.

    Infinite Blue has everything to offer that you can ask for. The place is amazing, it is very well taken care of and very clean. The views are stunning - a swim in the infinity pool is mandatory! And watching the sunrise at the terrace will be a very long-lasting memory. The room was very comfortable, with great design and calm. Cindy is an exceptional host who wants to make sure that you have a great stay - she gave us a lot of great recommendations! The breakfast is really good as well - definitely recommendable!

    Stunning boutique hotel with beautiful ocean views. Tastefully decorated with beautiful artwork in and around the hotel. Lovely outdoor area where you can lounge and admire the views. The rooms are spacious and clean. The staff are simply amazing. We needed to extend our stay at the last moment and the team were so accommodating to this and any other requests we had. The nightly turndowns are heavenly.

    It’s a lovely boutique hotel with stunning views of the bay. The bathrooms are AMAZING, and the staff super friendly and helpful. The bed was really comfortable. We took advantage of the low season discounts so we enjoyed the most incredible room. It’s really a lovely hotel! Breakfast menu is great, but the dinner menu not so much.
