Kactus - Your Island Sanctuary

Such a beautiful part of the island, very special place with lovely owners and volunteers

The menu is outstanding and unexpectedly diverse. Delicious food. The boat trip to the island and back adds to the wonderful experience and Kactus overall is a refreshing break from mass tourism.

I liked everything, and wished I could have stayed longer.

Kactus is a unique place. As close as you will get to staying on a desserted island if you were lucky enough to get washed up with some great yoga teachers, chefs and someone who can make literally anything out of bamboo. We had a hut with sea view which was surrounded by jungle with a view of the sea through the trees. We loved this as we were totally not overlooked by anyone and yet a minutes walk from the bar, yoga studios, restaurant and all the many other things on offer. Day 1 we did nothing but eat, drink and take in the view from the terrace and white sand beach. Day 2 - I was in the mood for some of the 40 or so activities available- but no pressure to do anything- it’s incredibly chill. Breathwork and meditation with Gio at 7am was sublime. Time for a coffee before a really excellent yoga class ( sorry forget her name) but she was a fantastic instructor who made every level feel included- there were pros and not so pros in our class. Lots of other sessions available - including something with a stick that looked very zen but I was chill enough by then. Don’t understand the issues of some reviews on the price of food. Really reasonable I thought. I wouldn’t personally bring snacks, as you are totally open to the jungle and it will attract little critters to your room. Something definitely got to a carton of milk we had brought. Either the sandflies were in holiday or the recommended coconut oil Em suggested worked a treat. Obviously a few missies but take the usual precautions. We loved the wildlife, you really are living alongside nature

Nothing

Il complesso è immerso nella natura, il ristorante è direttamente sulla sabbia e il cibo è buono! Le capanne sono molto carine anche se la nostra era tanto piccola, bisogna fare i conti con gli insetti ma direi che in un posto così è scontato. Lo staff era adorabile e super gentile!

Non prendete la capanna River. È vicino ai bagni e non essendo molto puliti gli odori arrivano alla capanna. La pulizia dei bagni che sono in comune dovrebbe sicuramente venir migliorata
