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.

Perfect location, friendly and kind staff. Local craftsmanship in architectural details. Very comfortable bedding for a great night’s sleep. Pleasantly surprised by an upgrade which gave us our private outdoor jacuzzi and patio!!
