I enjoyed the resort's architecture! Carved wood was everywhere and gardens were well kept. The Ocean View Pool Villa had amazing views. The private pool really added something extra.
I experienced very slow responses via WhatsApp.

perfect transferfine sea viewwarm welcomelimited menupickup carscheduled speedboat
The hotel arranged a perfect transfer. It reminded me of I was royalty from start to finish. The staff communicated well regarding luggage, activities, and transfers. I had a fine sea view from my room. A beautiful sunset was visible every day.
The food choices felt very limited. There were only a few options for lunch and dinner. The pick-up cars felt unsafe for children. These cars are used to travel from the rooms to the lobby. Speedboat trips were limited to only three times a day.

mixed feelings about the stay
beautiful groundsdifficult transportindifferent staff
The grounds were beautiful and well maintained. A highlight of the visit.
Getting around was a constant hassle. I had to book a golf cart and then two tuk-tuks just to leave the resort. This ate up a lot of time. the checkout process was rushed. I was asked to leave my room an hour before my taxi arrived though the staff seemed indifferent.

Acceptable stay, but some issues
good buffetinconvenient layout
The breakfast was a buffet with many choices. This was an acceptable start to the day.
The layout was very inconvenient, it took at least ten minutes to move from one place to another. This got frustrating quickly.
