It was friendly, helpful staff that made all the difference. The quality of the food was also better than expected from a 3.5 star organisation. And a 4 wheel drive bus tour we took to the south end of the island was well handled by the driver who also excelled at making it an informative, fun and safe trip

Lovely stay at the resort - had a family unit which had plenty of space for the 3 of us (including 7m old baby). Only downside was the shower was a bit hard to get right but wasn’t a major. Lovely beach front views. Food options are limited at the resort / restaurants so worthwhile bringing your own lunch from the mainland if staying a few days (and have a fridge in your unit!)
