Oh My God!!! This place was literally PARADISE! My wife and I were just there in November for our honeymoon and we loved every single minute that we spent there! From arriving and being greeted by the amazing stafff at the dock with fresh beverages to our breathtaking over water villa. The views were incredible, the food was amazing, the staff was perfect and so helpful, there were so many activities to do and the atmosphere was fantastic! We went snorkeling off of our deck every day and eventually went deep water snorkeling with the group. The banana boat ride was a RUSH and so much fun especially because we got to go alone. We were there during Halloween week so the property decorated the grounds, had themes at every corner, scary movies on the beach and a small performance too. I give this property and experience a perfect 10/10 because I can’t think of a single thing that could’ve been better, I would just tell people coming from the USA to be prepared for a loooong trip to PARADISE!

This place is absolutely stunning. Clear blue water, plenty of sea life and lot of activities for kids of all age. The staff here are very approachable and greet the guest with a smile. The rooms are clean and bed is equipped with best mattress you can get. Our family had an absolute cracking time even though it’s rained a lot on one of the days. The staff arranged lot of indoor activities for the kids, which allowed the grown up to have a great time as well. We stayed 5 night but I would recommend at least 7 days or more. You will never get tired of majestic view and serene deep blue water. I would rate our stay more 5 stars!. Rest assured, we will be back here again!
