8.4/10 Very Good! (131 reviews)

The staff was very kind and accommodating. The breakfast they made was delicious and filling! The beds and pillows were extremely comfortable, and we enjoyed the pool as well. We were also able to leave our valuables in the safe in the room, which made us feel assured while spending the day at the beach. We would definitely stay here again!

9/10 Wonderful! (11 reviews)

We really enjoyed our visit and would recommend it. We were mostly impressed with the staff, especially Daniel, during our stay. He was incredibly attentative. I think it is worth staying overnight here rather than a day trip, as when the day trippers leave it is very tranquil. If you do not like birds, we would not recommend, but I found the frigate birds incredible to see up close! We took a short trip to the main island and Daniel gave us a tour of the local villages - this was also a great experience. A great place to really switch off and relax.
