"We loved our stay Amazing property and fantastic staff"

"The property has been around for 40 years. Transfers from seaports and airports were seamless. Check-in was a little chaotic and even had an issue with another guest being checked in before us. No apologies from the staff even though I called it out. Aside from swimming pools, the beach and other amenities; nothing really stood out. The room we stayed in was massive. It does need an upgrade. There’s visible signs of wear and tear. Food is not allowed in the rooms due to ants. However, fruits and soda were offered in the room and fridge. Those also attract ants. Given the nature of the property, there were a lot of mosquitoes, be prepared. Staff around the property were polite to say good morning etc. what we did not like were the staff at the 2 restaurants we ate at. This is where we felt that we were foreigners in our own country. It felt that we owed the staff something even though we paid for the services. It was also evident that teamwork was lacking. We weren’t a demanding bunch but a little hospitality and simple smile would’ve been appreciated. This is not our first island resort, and while this has the best view among all that we visited, the way we were treated by the staff took the beauty away. In our 3 days and 5 visits to the restaurants, only Regina made a difference and knew how to treat her guests. Hope the rest of the staff have the same attitude as her. There is a need for restaurant staff retraining on how to treat their guests."

"Plenty of drinking water and a kettle for tea, coffee, powders. Beach is only steps away for great sunsets, pleasant staff and motobike parking. "

"Great view and sunset. Public road a bit too rough to get to resort. Recommend at least 2 night stay which was perfect with full day island tour and snorkelling at resort. Fair food prices and nice meals!"

"The room was clean and the staff was polite and helpful. My issue is the plumbing. The CR smells of sewage always. I plugged the vents and it helped a lot but the fumes contined to flow into the room. "

"This is a fantastic property if you want peace and quiet. If you are looking to be in the center of the action then it's not for you. Great design and super friendly staff and owner. Owner is very hands-on and greets you and makes sure you are ok with your stay. The restaurant is very pretty, kind of sitting in a loft, and the food was excellent. Nice pool and lounge chairs overlooking the water. Overall a nice place to be if you want to unwind and relax."

"Very comfy and clean pool"

"The room was nice, staff was so helpful and courteous. Hadgood food and mopeds to rent on site"

"Needs some Reno’s, could be a nice location with some clean up."
