Firstly, an amazing part of the world and the staff here make the place what it is. So much hard work goes into maintaining the grounds, the beach, even when we are asleep everyone is working hard to provide an amazing experience.

Firstly, an amazing part of the world and the staff here make the place what it is. So much hard work goes into maintaining the grounds, the beach, even when we are asleep everyone is working hard to provide an amazing experience.
Food:
Please bear in mind you are on a remote island and the kitchen staff have to work hard to provide a variety of food for us and getting the resource in the first place.
nut allergy- very attentive, the head chef will walk you through for each meal if you speak to them, excellent service and felt safe. Everything is labelled but if you’re unsure just ask.
Food was quite samey on rotation, however still plenty of choice.
Didn’t rate the Italian restaurant - starters and dessert is a similar experience to the buffet on offer, however the main meal was nice.
Facilities:
Gym is a nice size, clean and amazing views
Sports bar great for morning coffee stop, always very attentive service here
Pool/bar, we didn’t use this at all during our stay, was far too busy for us here and the drinks weren’t amazing, premixed cocktails, can be hard to get a seat around the bar at sunset as most people congregate here.
Rooms:
Very spacious and modern, cleaners work tirelessly all day, considering sand is everywhere on this island they do a very good job of keeping the villas clean- 5*!!
Entertainment:
Always a hit and miss for us on holiday, just down to personal preference
Overall:
We had a sunrise room in block 2911, great side for swimming and soft scenic sand. Lovely room, nice and quiet, we spent mornings here, then after lunch we would wander up to the top of the island and sit by the hammocks on the few loungers there, and spend the afternoons snorkelling- this makes for a great peaceful and romantic sunset spot!
Big shoutout to Ibrahim and Nee in hospitality, Puja in sports bar, and Rasika, Pasi and Niko for our morning coffee! Above and beyond excellent service.
