That was a wonderful stay. The hotel is probably the best place in the whole area. It was very clean, the food was nice and the main thing for us was the beach - absolutely astonishing.

A really beautiful hotel with a great beach and pool. The lack of WiFi in the rooms and very poor WiFi in the common areas was odd for a top hotel. The shower and towels in my room weren’t great. Overall a 9 when it could have been a 10.

Ich würde dieses Hotel wieder buchen

Dieses Hotel ist unbedingt eine Empfehlung wert. Großes Zimmer und Bad, Service sehr aufmerksam, Betten in Ordnung, Essen ausgezeichnet und auch das Frühstück sehr üppig. Ab Ende März ist auch die Tauchschule geöffnet. Strand Traumhaft, weitläufige Anlage mit einem großen Pool. Einziges Mango: ringsum nichts so dass man bestenfalls sich einen Roller mietet oder TukTuk kommen lässt . Wir waren Anfang Februar für 5 Nächte und hatten keinen Regen und Preise im Keller 😁 Wasser warm aber ein bisschen aufgewühlt, was sich hier ab Ende März komplett ändert und dann der Wind Richtung Meer weht. Volle Empfehlung

Great gem of a place

This was a gem. Very pretty beach and close to pigeon island for snorkeling. Room was great. Breakfast was lovely. Staff super friendly and helpful. Pool was lovely too. Bar area was good. It was pretty quiet due to low season but felt like we were still well looked after.

Very close to jump off point for Pigeon Island. Budget room was very clean but very hot despite the fan. No ventilation and windows didn’t open. Check in and checkout were really slow. Was quite disappointed with the friendly, but exceedingly unhelpful staff - not what I would expect at this more expensive property.

I will come back

In generel we had a fantastic stay. Very friendly and serviceminded staff. Fine rooms, good pool facilities with nice poolbar. And direct to the most beautiful and clean beach. But why do the hotel have this slow - not working wifi all over the resort - only by the reception area had wifi a live. But I will come back never the less, because the resort was wunderful.
