My experience at the hotel was mixed. While the setting was peaceful and the diving experience was fantastic, I faced some issues with service. The rooms had character, but the dining experience was slightly lacking in variety. Overall, it has great potential but needs improvement in customer service.

My stay at the resort was quite mixed. On one hand, the location is absolutely stunning, with beautiful views and a private beach that made my holiday special. The staff were very welcoming and made me feel comfortable. However, the dining options, though decent, didn't quite meet my expectations, and I experienced some issues with room quality that were disappointing. Overall, there are fantastic aspects, but some improvements are needed to make it a truly top-notch experience.

I was absolutely disappointed with my stay at this hotel. The service was misleading, and overall it felt like a ghost hotel with hardly any guests around. The lack of essential amenities made it feel more like a budget hostel than a resort. I wouldn't recommend it for families unless you're looking for a dull experience.
Rooms

The rooms were basic and lacked essential amenities like a telephone and TV. The bedding was only changed every three days unless you paid extra.
