Guest Review: + Everything is made out of bamboo. Not in a cheap way, but in a classy and eco kind of way. It looks super nice! The property is beautifully maintained and is super clean! + They serve breakfast at 08:00, lunch at 13:00 and dinner at 20:00. Everyone eats together in the restaurant that is open to the outsides and is beautifully located next to the beach. All is served in buffet form. They change the menu with every meal and the food is absolutely delicious!! (We booked half-board, but could pay for either buffet or a la carte lunch on the spot) + During our stay we got brand new snorkelling equipment to use for free. + On an information board in the restaurant, you can see what excursion is planned for the next day. The activity depends on the weather. You can opt in or out. We went snorkelling for 25 USD per person. + The staff is super friendly and goes absolutely above and beyond for you to have a good time. + Our speedboat back was scheduled at 13:00, the property gave us a late check-out till 12:00 for free.
