My family and I will never forget this trip!! The place was beautiful and the staff were just amazing and made it such enjoyable place to stay. The rooms were great and very clean and spacious. Beds were comfy and spare pillows and blankets just in case. Nothing beats the ocean in all its beauty, but, take reef shoes as it's all coral and no sand. We will back again for a visit.
The facilities need a new build with high ceilings and character. The food is average and needs urgent attention. The staff are great.
Had a wonderful stay, could not fault it - stunning property
