    A beautiful location. I like how the resort had a family side and an adults only side. Very friendly staff. Clean and well presented rooms. Could have stayed longer.

    We came here for our honeymoon in March 2024 and had the most wonderful time. We loved the relaxed nature of the place, the beauty, the wonderful swimming, snorkeling and kayaking in the calm waters just in front of our rooms. The food esp breakfast was wonderful and we would commend the Island night completely.

    Restaurant could be run better. Service was slow especially between meals . I think they could make more money there if they had a manager watching the tables and servicing them quicker . Especially dinner time offer dessert rather than have your table wait and have to ask for the menu.

    Location is amazing . Villas were nice, clean and lots of space . Front desk staff were lovely

    The shower was either incredibly hot or really cold (but absolutely didn’t detract from our stay) The tv was broken, but also didn’t detract from our stay

    Wonderful staff more than happy to help! You can tell how much the family run business takes pride in their hotel. Great location! Loved the cultural night presented by the locals.

    Some of the decor, was showing age, but we understand everything will be renovated this year so were happy to go into nit-picking mode to help with this.

    The location was excellent. Close to the beach, transport, eateries, etc.) Everyone was very helpful, including advice on places to visit. Nice scrockery.

    We booked the waterfront villa so the view to the sea was amazing. A really comfortable room with a lot of space. There were free bikes that we used to explore the island or go to the mini market and the atm. There were also free kanoes. Amazing place.

    Roosters that crow (all day and night) - lol (but not lol).

    The food here was fantastic (every time) for all meals we had at the resort, which was pretty much all of the meals as we did not have any means of travelling to other locations on the island. Accommodation was clean, tidy and comfortable, and met our needs. The facilities were great, and the location was excellent.

    They need to address the issue of slippery tiles in the bathroom. They are very dangerous and I suggest they get bath mats.

    The whole experience from the time we arrived to when we left. The staff were friendly and fun, very helpful and made sure we had a great time from the moment we were picked up from the airport. The food was delicious especially the breakfast. Being able to snorkel right outside our room was fantastic and it was good snorkelling. We liked how private it was.
