A week of pure relaxation
Waking up to breathtaking ocean views was the highlight of my mornings. The staff were excellent, ensuring we were comfortable and well-fed each day. This resort truly offers a tranquil getaway with pristine facilities.
While the isolation provided a peaceful retreat, it did mean limited dining options outside the resort. Occasionally, the food hygiene could also be improved, especially in buffet areas.

The Deluxe Double or Twin Room with Ocean View is a treat, offering stunning visuals right from your bed, making the morning a beautiful experience. The atmosphere is surprisingly calm, perfect for those looking to do nothing but soak in the sun with poolside drinks at hand.
The resort is quite isolated, meaning you'll need to arrange transportation to access nearby areas like Paje or Michamvi, which can be a hassle. The food hygiene left a lot to be desired, with buffet stations that had unwelcome insects, and the overall buffet experience was average at best. amenities like the coffee at breakfast could use an upgrade. some drinks, like iced coffee, were good, but the buffet coffee was a letdown. The mattress in the Junior Suite was too firm for my liking, which may not suit everyone. The lack of nearby infrastructure and entertainment might feel stifling if you're looking for adventure outside the resort's walls.

Our room had a flat-screen TV, a beautiful balcony with a sea view, and a comfy bed with a non-feather pillow. The spa offered great services like a full body massage and beauty treatments. The buffet featured fresh pancakes and live cooking, with lovely cocktails by the pool. The beach was clean with crystal clear water.

The room was lovely with a breathtaking view of the ocean every morning, and I loved that housekeeping took such great care of it, even spraying for mosquitoes. The spa was fantastic for unwinding, and the pool by the beach was the perfect spot to relax all day. The mattress was a bit firmer than I prefer, but it didn't take away from my overall chill experience. 🌴

My stay was unforgettable, especially with the memorable dining experiences. each dinner featured a unique theme and was incredibly tasty. The pools were pristine and always had available sunbeds. A minor letdown was the limited selection at the dinner buffet, but it didn't overshadow the amazing time I had.

An amazing stay marked by stunning ocean views from the spacious, well-maintained room, which felt like a luxurious surprise. The attentive staff created a welcoming environment, always there with a smile, enhancing the feeling of being at home. Dining was a highlight, with delightful, homestyle Japanese dishes elevating the meal experience. the resort's isolation made outside exploration difficult, and certain amenities, like the breakfast coffee, could be improved for a better overall experience.

The room offered breathtaking ocean views right from the balcony. I appreciated the spaciousness and cleanliness of the Deluxe Double Room with Ocean View. The pool area had a fantastic vibe, providing a refreshing escape, while the private beach was a highlight, perfect for unwinding. I truly enjoyed the various food options each night. the buffet featured fresh pancakes and live cooking that kept meals interesting. I found the buffet coffee a bit underwhelming and the food hygiene could be improved with some areas needing better attention. The mattress felt firmer than I usually prefer, which might not suit everyone. I felt at home thanks to the dedicated staff, especially Killian at the reception, who made check-in smooth and welcoming. Even with these minor inconveniences, the stay was relaxing, and I found myself pampered throughout my time there. Definitely recommend this place for a tranquil getaway.
