"We went for 9 nights “fly and flop”. Be prepared for mosquitoes in the evening. We used repellent every night and mossie net over bed. Well-made cocktails - maybe a bit sweet? Huge variety, they’ll make what you want. Not top brands of spirits - but you don’t really notice in a cocktail. Wine is acceptable chardonnay (oaked) or sauvignon blanc -S7 from Chile. Also a prosecco and two reds. You can upgrade to wine from a reasonable wine list at standard restaurant prices. Diet coke - from a tap, rather than bottle/can. Lots of ice, so it becomes diluted very quickly. Everything is about upgrades - where you can sit, what pool you use, what you eat, what you drink. - Breakfast - a la carte. Daily cooked “special” e.g. scrambled eggs and smoked salmon, waffles & bacon - Lunch - 3 courses - Dinner - 4 courses (extra to upgrade to steak) - Coffee shop. Hot drinks, smoothies, baked snacks - all included - Mid-afternoon snacks included e.g. paninis, sliders & chips We did not get bored or go hungry! Small pools - only accessible by booking. Min $120 US, not worth it. Sheer Rocks restaurant is on the property but unaffiliated. Worth a visit - but be aware not low cost option. Every room is a cabin - great for privacy Balcony - showers open on to it Pay more for better view, closeness to facilities, in room pool. Nice if you want to be very private, but otherwise not worth paying for. We would go again. "

"If you are looking for the tranquil turquoise waters, this is not the resort. The beaches had nice sand but when you got to the water they were very shallow depth with alot of seagrass. One beach did have floating pads to enjoy the warm water. Tucked in a cove so very calm. Property was very beautiful. (Very hilly! They did offer shuttle service) Rooms were clean and nice. Staff were very nice and accommodating. Food was good, daily buffet had different themes for dinner. Multiple restaurants for beautiful views. Drinks were great!!"

"We have stayed here twice. It is a beautiful property with simple rooms. Unfortunately, the additional bedding available in the closet included a blanket with a used condom signaling to me that they don’t wash the additional linens regularly."

"This place was absolutely beautiful. Food was great. Views were amazing. The ONLY thing a bit negative is that the locals and staff were not that welcoming. Some staff were excellent and friendly, some were not. Overall, I would rate it a 4.8 out of 5."

"Spacious room. Far exceeded expectations."

"Wonderful site and great service."

"Fantastic property. Beautiful beach and always a friendly staff member to set up a beach chair and umbrella for you... Not many restaurants around and the ones that are seemed pricey. We went to th grocery store and made great ise of th in room kitchens and bbq under the gazebo... Great fun. "

"Where do I start? On arrival there was no one at the front desk. Waited about 15 minutes, I received a key on a chain for my room. The room looked like it hadn’t been touched or cleaned in three decades. Cracked tiles all over. Dirt and residue in the grout of the tile. Don’t even get me started about the bathroom. GROSS. I had to wear my flip flops every time I showered. So dirty. The shower curtain …. Ugggh so gross with mildew and stains. On day four…. I went to front desk to get fresh towels. They never came. I went down three times. Finally at 8pm I received ONE fresh towel. There was nothing opened for food when we arrived. They have no store with snacks or waters or anything. Just a small gift shop that claims they are open at 9am but never opened until after noon and closed by 3pm. (The gift shop didn’t sell snacks or waters). They had set times for breakfast, lunch and dinner. We had traveled a long time and they had nothing to offer us when we arrived. They told us we had to wait until 6:30 when the buffet opened for dinner. WHAT?!?! It was 3pm. We went down to the pool to get a drink. The bar closed at 3;45. The outdoor grill was closed. It was absolutely mind boggling. The food was gross. They had little to offer. The beach had trash everywhere. Cigarettes thrown all over the property. They just don’t take pride in their property. Very disappointed. Never again"

"Wonderful stay"
