"A unique property and the only place to stay on a remote island in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Home island has gorgeous beaches and snorkeling but is a quiet place with few amenities. The Oceania house has a unique history and architecture (look it up) worth visiting just for that. The location is great, rooms are spacious and very comfortable and the single staff member went out of his way to provide information, bikes, meals, and transport to the ferry, etc. Alternative accommodations on West Island are closer to the airport and the one or two restaurants on Cocos, but don’t provide the unique ecperience of a stay at Oceania."
