We recently stayed here and to begin with this is a very nice resort, however...this is an upscale place and you would expect upon arrival someone would help you with your luggage...didn’t happen. Upon check-in we were supposed to receive a welcome drink...we had to ask for it and received a local instant iced tea that was so sweet it was undrinkable. The room was splendid! It was absolutely beautiful and everything was perfect. I told my wife that when we build our house I would like to have our master bedroom be just like this. The mattress was so comfortable I slept better than I have in ages. The only thing that was wrong with the room was the wi-fi didn’t work at all. I went to the front desk and was told that if I wanted to use wi-fi I had to sit in the lobby or the bar. I’ve stayed in a lot cheaper places that had great wi-fi. The food in the restaurant was ok but a little overpriced in my opinion. We have traveled a lot and never have I been to a resort that wouldn’t allow you to eat in the room. Upon checkout they tried to charge us for food they said was our dinner..we didn’t eat there for dinner. Then they tried to charge us for lunch that we had already paid for. They made us feel like they thought we were thieves. I feel that a resort of this caliber (which is not cheap compared to other resorts in the area) would be better at the basics. We talked to other guests that had similar issues and different ones as well. As the title says I’m really disappointed.…

We stayed here for 2 weeks , this is our second visit, both my partner and I are divers and this place is on the beach , so you can walk straight from your room on to the boat. The deluxe rooms are spacious and clean, the staff are really friendly and helpful. The restaurant serves a wide variety of meals and can cater for everyone. I'd highly recommend this resort.

Nice resort, very nice rooms. Pool is okay, although a bit small especially when several dive groups do their lessons in the pool (they seem to have priority). In general, this resort is a divers place. As non-divers, you feel that you come second. E.g. when you want to book a snorkelling trip with the on-sight provider sea-explorers.com, you need to wait until the evening before the trip and can only join if it is not fully booked by divers. Breakfast is great, this gives a plus point. There is a very nice snorkelling spot right from the beach. However, it is 15' walk on the beach from the resort.

We have had a wonderful holiday. The resort itself is an abundance of manicured lawns, lush gardens, delightful pool, surreal water features, friendly nocturnal garden frogs and a large diverse menu embracing the local cuisine with no stone unturned in the presentation. The staff themselves are outstanding, caring and deliver the highest standards and professional service. The diving organisation is perfect with a lot of attention to detail with above standard facilities, equipment and what divers of all standards require for cleaning and storage. The dive guides are knowledgeable, attentive and caring. The dive boats are well maintained and well designed with ease of entry and exit to the boat from the water. On a personal level, I am extremely grateful for the highest standards of care and assistance offered to me throughout our stay. Being a paraplegic and confined to a manual wheelchair I truly appreciate of all the extra care and support given to me. ♿️ Thank you everyone for a wonderful holiday.…
