The photographs do not do this property justice. The rooms and ocean views are amazing. The staff was extremely friendly. If you are a foodie this may not be the property for you. The all inclusive / full board option included breakfast, lunch and dinner at specified times (not all day as you like). In room dining is offered, but is not included in the all inclusive / full board package, and the pricing for food is high. There are also only two locations for food: one on the “main island” where the beach villas are located and one on the island where the over the ocean villas are located. I only visited the location where the over ocean villas are located. The food that was provided was very good. However, I am one who can eat the same things daily and be fine. Breakfast was buffet style. Lunch and dinner menus at the restaurant on the island where the ocean villas are located does not change. The bar tenders make great drinks. In room snacks consist of a small package of Pringle’s and a snickers bar which is replenished once per day. Drinks in room include water, beer, a bottle of vodka, a bottle of rum and two small bottles of wine - one white and one red, in addition to Orange Fanta and sprite. The seaplane ride is about an hour and you will likely have a drop off / pick up on your way. But the hotel is great about arranging travel and a representative was waiting at the airport and was extremely helpful in navigating the airport.

Wonderful relaxing stay. Staff are very helpful and nice. 2 bedroom villa was amazing with all the amenities. Only note is that the showers and toilets are outside the room, but still private. It’s great for washing up after the beach and keeping sand out of the rooms. Also, floors in the public areas (reception, restaurant, bar) are sand, so no need to bring fancy heels!
