Our stay at the hotel was truly memorable, filled with cultural charm and a serene beach experience. The rooms were lovely and decorated with unique pieces that added to the cozy atmosphere. The staff went above and beyond, making our dining experience delightful with delicious food. However, while the snorkeling at the hotel’s home reef was great, I wish there had been more dining options available. Overall, it was a wonderful and relaxing escape with much to offer.

I had an amazing stay at this hotel! The serene atmosphere combined with an uncrowded beach made it perfect for some quality time with my daughter. The warm, friendly service, especially from Sanders and Jane, truly made us feel at home. It was a bit disappointing to leave this paradise for another crowded resort after two nights. Overall, I can't recommend this place enough!

The resort has beautiful architecture and cozy rooms that provide a warm ambiance. The dining experience is delightful with diverse menu options, and the beach is just a short walk away, offering a quiet retreat. However, the service can be inconsistent, especially when dealing with payment issues, and the location lacks vibrant nightlife options.

I had a great time at this resort, enjoying the clean and comfortable amenities along with some of the most stunning sunrises. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, making it feel like home. However, the breakfast could use some improvement, and I had some concerns about the booking process, which seemed inflexible. Overall, it was a relaxing place to stay, just not ideal in terms of dining options.
