The staff was amazing, always friendly and helpful. The villas were very enjoyable. We loved our two bedroom villa with private pool. The restaurant had a good variety of options. Make sure to book tours and spa treatments. We were lucky to get them in but should have checked ahead of time. The resort is very relaxing.

I wanted to share a few suggestions that may help enhance the overall experience for guests, especially those staying for multiple nights or who prefer non-water activities. While island hopping and hiking are wonderful offerings, incorporating additional on-site and land-based experiences can provide more variety and engagement. Some recommendations include: Non-Water On-Site Activities: • Pool Table / Billiards – Great for indoor entertainment during the evenings or rainy days. • Board Games & Card Sets – Readily available in the common lounge or for borrowing. • Foosball, Air Hockey, or Darts • Mini Library or Book Exchange Corner • Outdoor Movie Nights – Weekly or bi-weekly events can be a nice touch. • Local Cooking Classes or Cultural Demonstrations – Allow guests to immerse themselves in the local lifestyle. • Live Acoustic Music Nights – Especially during weekends or peak seasons. Land Tour Suggestions: • Cultural Village Visits – Showcase the local way of life, crafts, and traditions. • Farm or Garden Tours – If applicable, offer a chance to learn about local agriculture or herbal plants. • Scenic ATV or E-bike Rides – Explore nearby hills, forests, or viewpoints. • Sunset Viewing Spots – Organize land trips to the best sunset spots with refreshments. • Local Food Tours – Partner with nearby eateries or markets to offer guided tasting experiences. Adding even just a few of these could make a big difference in keeping guests entertained, especially dur
