5.8/10

The resort offers a peaceful retreat with gorgeous sea views, comfortable beds, and a wide variety of local dishes for dinner. However, the service can be frustratingly slow, and the breakfast selection lacks variety. The location is very remote, which means you'll have limited options unless you plan organized outings.

Rooms

The deluxe rooms are spacious but quite basic, with some furniture showing signs of wear. I appreciated the large size and cleanliness, as well as the nice balcony for sunset views.

Service

5.0

Service was a mixed bag; while some staff were friendly and efficient, I faced long waits for simple requests and reminders were often needed.

Location

The resort is isolated, requiring a bumpy drive from the airport. While it offers tranquility, the remoteness limits convenience to visit nearby attractions.

Dining

Dinner was enjoyable with a good variety of local cuisine, but breakfast was repetitive and lacked quality.

Facilities

The pool is well-designed with both shallow and deep areas and plenty of loungers. The spa services were impressive and affordable, adding value to the stay.

We had a wonderful stay in the Honeymoon Villa, which had an incredible sea view and a fantastic private spa. The friendly staff made our experience even better, but we did face a few issues with the mosquitoes in our Executive Superior bungalow and some confusion during check-in about the pricing through Booking.com. Overall, the ambiance was delightful, and we would definitely recommend this place for a romantic getaway.

Rooms

6.2/10

I had an average experience during my stay, particularly given the high price tag of £300 per night. While the hotel has good entertainment and friendly wait staff, I felt that the service was lacking in some areas, especially regarding the all-inclusive package. The food and facilities could use improvements, but the room was decent, and I appreciated the late check-out gesture.

Rooms

My experience at the resort was mixed. While the staff were incredibly welcoming and the property itself was beautifully designed, I encountered several issues with cleanliness and dining options. I appreciated the spacious and comfortable rooms, but the challenges with the pools and food quality were hard to overlook, especially given the price point.

Rooms

8.0

The rooms were spacious and had great natural light, but I needed to use the mosquito net even though there was a turn down service provided.

Service

8.0

The service was impressive and provided us with all the information we needed, making our stay more enjoyable. However, there was inconsistency in the assistance we received regarding restaurant hours.

Location

7.0

The location is unbelievable in terms of beauty and tranquility, though it is about an hour to an hour-and-a-half away from the main attractions.

Dining

5.0

Dining experiences were underwhelming—many meals felt below average and repetitive. I longed for more variety and better overall quality in the food.

Facilities

6.0

The pool facilities were a huge letdown; while there was a fun layout with various depths, the cleanliness, especially of the whirlpool, was disappointing.

5.4/10

The resort offers a serene escape with comfortable beds and a nicely varied dinner buffet. However, the location is quite remote with a troublesome access road, and there are several service shortcomings that dampen the overall experience. The breakfast is repetitive and lacks quality, which is disappointing for a place advertised as luxurious.

Rooms

6.0

The deluxe rooms are spacious but feel quite basic, with worn furniture and no added amenities like bathrobes. They are clean, but overall, just average.

Service

5.0

The service is notably slow and requires frequent reminders for basic requests. There was a lack of attentiveness which detracted from the experience.

Location

5.0

The resort is very remote and requires a difficult drive along a poor road. It's nice for a quiet getaway but limits your options for excursions.

Dining

5.0

Dinner options are varied and flavorful, but breakfast is a letdown, serving the same items daily without much skill in preparation.

Facilities

7.0

While the facilities, such as the pool and spa, are decent, overall service and upkeep need improvement to match a luxury experience.
