This resort was paradise! Absolutely the best resort I’ve ever stayed in. Staff were very friendly, beach was amazing and the overwater bungalow was a dream. I never return to the same resort but I’ll be returning back here. I’m a gold Expedia member and I received all the perks that were advertised.

Although our stay was shorter than we wanted, we were able to explore as many of the amenities and activities as we could! The beauty of island itself, along with the weather were spectacular—however the true gem of our visit was the staff; Yuki, Bilal, Ahmed, Ivy, Mehlen, Sheroy along with the entire staff made our experience genuine, outstanding, and truly magical. On behalf of my partner and I we thank you for making this experience one as the benchmark for future vacations! We will be returning! Thank you, Jeremy & Silas.
