"Our room was 20 steps to the finest sand and aqua water. We snorkelled daily to see over a hundred coral fish. Also took a 45 min boat trip to snorkel w nurse sharks. We fed other baby sharks by the Aqua Bar. Staff are exceptionally nice and attentive. Mamum decorated our huge suite and jacuzzi for my birthday, so talented and humble! Thanks everyone "

"We absolutely loved every minute of our stay. There really wasnt anything that let this island down. The food was incredible, the service on point and there wasnt a chance to get bored with all the activities and facilities available. The dive centre is the best ive ever been to. All the staff there were super helpful. The dive guides extremely knowledgeable and a pleasure to dive with. Our guide Kartik was brilliant. He took us to some mind blowing dive spots all only a short distance from the island. We also did a night dive on the house reff which is just beautiful. "

"Hotel is very good. Just need to understand how it works. We got all included package but not all restaurants were included. Also you need to book dinner always in advance, if not you cant eat in the place. Menu is not open, you have limited options and one main course per person. Staff are very friendly. Suggest to move around walking or bicycle. "
