I had an amazing stay at this resort with its beautiful setting and tranquil atmosphere. The rooms were spacious, clean, and offered stunning views over the bay. Although the dining experience was unique with a set menu that introduced us to new dishes, I did notice some litter in the water which was a bit disappointing. Overall, this place is perfect for those looking to unwind in nature while being pampered by attentive staff.

This resort truly felt like paradise, nestled right at the beach with easy access to all kinds of snorkeling adventures. The atmosphere was peaceful, perfect for escaping the hustle of city life. The restaurant served delicious meals, and the staff went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. However, the rooms could use better air conditioning for comfort, and there were issues with plastic waste nearby on the beach.

I had a wonderful time at the resort, enjoying fantastic snorkeling experiences both in the bay and just off the beach. The food options were excellent, with a delightful five-course menu. However, I found some mornings disrupted by fishing boats preparing nearby, which made it less peaceful than I'd hoped. Overall, it's a hidden gem for those seeking relaxation and a bit of adventure.
