A beautiful location and property. Wonderful pool area and amazing beachfront experience. Watching the sunrise and sunset over the ocean at the beach was fantastic.
They have a shuttle service that is included in your stay, making it very easy to drink responsibly in town and come back safely. Or go to one of the nearby beaches where parking is nearly impossible.
The room was homey, well supplied with the basics, includes beach chairs and umbrella, and has great airflow. However, we did encounter massive cockroaches (2-3 inches long approximately) near the kitchen area. We know animals are a part of the experience when visiting the garden isle. The geckos seen on the balcony were fun. And the kittens on the property were very cute.
Another animal experience were the American bullfrogs that cover the area. The noise they make at night is loud and constant. A sound similar to a washing machine running in the next room. It’s impractical to close the windows and doors because of the weather, so bring earplugs.
There were multiple power outages at the resort during our stay, luckily, we were either just about to leave or it happened at night when we were asleep, so it didn’t affect us too much.
The service was great, when available. The office is not open at night, and sometimes is not open during posted hours. Although everyone was very accommodating, very welcoming, and super friendly.
If you’re looking to be in nature and get away, this is the right place.
