Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Great place to stay. Smallish resort. Easy going, plenty of sunbeds without having ro reserve early morning. Food was varied and excellent every night, without being overwhelmed. Nothing else in the immediate vicinity, so ideal for getting away from it all. Lovely isolated beach, on the doorstep. Totally unspoilt.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Beautiful views but isolated part of the island. Takes 1.5 hours to airport and stone town. The staff was amazing and accommodating to my 2 year old son. He had an amazing time. I thought there would be more seafood options at dinner. But otherwise this was an excellent stay.

Magnifique hôtel
Très bel hôtel. Je ne regrette pas du tout mon choix pour cet hôtel. Les chambres sont grandes la piscine est top les enfants se sont amusés. La plage juste à côté de la piscine c’est le petit plus. Par contre il y’a rien autour de l’hôtel comme activités. L’hôtel en propose donc ça va
