Good Value
A nice resort, isolated and well maintained, with all promotions offered to us had a very good value. However, two things have to be mentioned: the cost and duration of transfer(so-called seaplane)and lack of nightlife. Seaplane transfer can take one upto 2 hours compared to 45 minutes promised and could cost you upto $400 per person(billed by the hotel, not my the air carrier????). A surcharge could be added to your bill to adjust for cost of fuel, and nothing you can do about it but pay! The food was OK, not impresive for 5 star hotel despite the insentives given (half- board or dinner buffet), particularly breakfast. On top of virtual absence of any night life and entertaintment the average cost of alchoholic bevarage was $ 14, a bottle table wine $34, and a small bottle of cocke frome room bar almoust $8. Water was provided in class bottles, one a day, or $5 in restaurant if ordered. Again, a nice resort with courteous staff, clean accomodation, but far from 5 star. Way overrated! Think more like 3+, 4 star at most. The best activities offered are diving (honeymoon dive was a great value with excellent instructors), deep sea fishing, and spa (dont miss that).
Traveler's tip on nightlife
We brought two suitcases full of dresses and shoes! Guess what! Wore only two in 10 days, one for private dinner party, and another for manager’s cocktail party (whatever that was). No entertainment, no night life! Sorry! It was extremely boring during evening hours!

Not bad for the price
Good value but I would rate it a 4+ stars, not 5. Our room service tray was left outside our door indefinately, until we would bring it to their attention to remove it. The buffet at dinner time has an awesome selection. It just appeared to me that something was missing to be a solid 5 star, but its hard for me to put a finger on it. Took forever to coordinate with the hotel the sea plane transfers. I received many emails from different staff prior to booking coordinating my arrival, so it was somewhat frustrating. Pool was nice and beach and over the water villas very nice as well. Not sure if its worth the money to be over the water. Showers in beach villas are cool.
Traveler's tip on saving a few bucks
Book a beach villa which is very nice and then upon check in for $100.00 they might offer you to upgrade to an over the water villa if you want. Beach villas are great though. Get a meal plan to save $$$$$.

Tough to Beat
Exceptional service, wonderful location, great food, extremely attentive staff, a wide variety of amenities....it’s tough to imagine staying any place better than this. It truly felt like paradise. Extremely highly recommended.
Traveler's tip on getting the most out of your stay
The resort offers two distinctive types of accomodations: a beach villa, or a water villa. Even though the water villas are first rate (and more expensive), the beach villas are great in their own way as well.
