My stay at the resort felt like stepping into paradise. The breathtaking views and warm island hospitality made our experience unforgettable. The rooms were fantastic, especially the overwater bungalows and the private infinity pool room, but I wish the dining options had a bit more variety at times. Getting to town was a bit tricky without using a taxi or scooter, which was a slight inconvenience but didn't detract much from our overall enjoyment.

The resort had excellent amenities including kayaks and bicycles for guests to explore the stunning surroundings. The facilities were great, but I think they could offer more entertainment options during the evenings.

This resort has a stunning location overlooking a beautiful lagoon, but my stay was marred by several disappointments. The room, although clean and decorated with nice touches, was smaller than expected and had an ant problem. While the service staff were mostly helpful, there were moments of unresponsiveness that took away from the experience. Overall, I would say it didn't live up to the luxury it promised given the price.

I had a delightful stay at this adults-only resort, surrounded by stunning views and a serene atmosphere. The rooms were spacious and well-equipped, but the decor could use a little update to match the tropical vibe. Service was mostly good, with friendly staff, though not consistent at all times. The dining could improve, as I found some meals slightly disappointing. Overall, it's a fantastic location for relaxation, but with a few areas needing attention.

My stay at the hotel was quite an experience, with both highs and lows. The location is simply stunning, especially from the overwater bungalow that offered breathtaking views. While the rooms were luxurious and well-decorated, I had to switch to a different room due to a broken air-conditioning unit, which was a bit frustrating. The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, making our stay enjoyable despite the hiccup.
