I had the most enchanting honeymoon experience at this exquisite resort! From the moment we arrived, we were swept away by the stunning surroundings, impeccable service, and luxurious amenities.The resort's staff went above and beyond to ensure our every need was met, making our stay unforgettable. Our honeymoon at this resort was a perfect start to our new journey together. 😊

Front desk staff is rude. Most people don't speak English very well. The bartenders were nice.. The folks doing the room cleaning were nice.. The food is terrible... Barely edible.. and not a lot of variety. Service at the restaurant is slow and spotty. The internet is spotty at best, weak and unreliable. I had multiple issues with it during my four night stay. When I first checked into my room the hot water didn't work.. They did fix it. The beds are two single beds smashed together.. I had other colleagues verify this.. Laundry service was excellent. No workout facilities. There is a spa but I didn't partake. The beaches are beautiful... There isn't much in town for shopping or sundries.. there's nothing at the hotel for any of that. I'm sure it's great if you're on a budget but expect to get what you pay for. One last item... I hope you like roosters... Cuz the one they have here, never sleeps...

This is the second time that we have been to this hotel. For the money you pay the service is excellent. The staff are very attentive especially Verun & Salah who work behind the bar. They remember what you ordered the first time & then have your drinks ready before you get to the bar. Matthew, our personal waiter at mealtimes was always at hand and looked after us very well. The rooms are basic but the bed is comfortable and there is plenty of hot water in the shower. We will definitely go back again. One tip, take plenty of US dollars with you because the local diving shop and other outlets don't take card.
