    * The main restaurant was closed the time we stayed. * The shower in the rooms needs a curtain or a barrier glass as everything we showered we needed to use all the towels to wipe the floor. * State clearly on your site that airport transfers have a minimum Pax requirement. *

    The distance away from the noise. It really is a beautiful resort and village.

    One of the front reception staff was extremely rude when we checked in which didn’t get our stay off to a good start. Towels in our room looked like they had bleach stains on them and were not suitable for paying guests. Food was pretty average. Tours were pretty expensive.

    Apart from front reception staff the staff were friendly and helpful. Room was fairly clean, comfortable bed and pillows. Loved the daily newsletter. Loved the gold class cinema night.

    Was very quiet while we were there (start of the week) and think food portions could be increased for the price.

    Amazing setting with fantastic beach loungers and snorkelling. Lovely staff.

    Our room the shower head was broken. Communication not clear as I rang reception from our room to see what time the restaurant was open and was told from 8am until 10pm. As we arrived to the restaurant the opening hours are from 6pm to 10pm. Walk long distance from our room to the restaurant on the rainy night arrived at the restaurant completely wet. However we were given towels to dry while waiting for our tea, which we were very grateful for it.

    The property was nice and tidy. Friendly,polite and respectful staff. The rooms were very spacious and cleaned.

    Although a beautiful location, the reef in front of the resort is not sheltered. there is hardly a chance to snorkel or swim in the ocean if the weather is not perfect. We had a garden view room with a connection door to the other room, which was closed off with wood. We could hear everything what happened next door, not very enjoyable, specially with active neighbour’s. The white towels although they smelled fresh and washed, where badly stained. As this is not exactly a cheap room, I expected more and was rather disappointed.

    Although very isolated, It’s a beautiful location. If you’re not the relaxing kind, a car to explore the island is a must. The garden view room was large and clean, but furnished badly without style, more like a motel room and not a resort. Large balcony :) which was nice, only 2 chairs for a room with 3 beds.
