Nice but not worth the money we spent

Liked:The pool was lovely and the food was exceptional.

Disliked:The amenities were run down and didn’t work at times. We had multiple issues in our room of things not working or turning off. The first night the electricity in our room was not working, no hot water, no fan and no air con. Second night we had no WIFI, Third night we had no aircon again. Some of the door locks weren’t working. We were also charged for drinking water at dinner. This was not anything special just normal water and we were charged $5

Short & sweet!

Liked:We absolutely loved the privacy of the villas, and having our own private pool was a wonderful bonus. With the half-board option, we really enjoyed the variety of set menus for dinner. A standout moment was the private beach dinner arranged for my birthday it was truly phenomenal, especially with the traditional dancers singing Happy Birthday, which made the experience even more special.

Disliked:The breakfast menu was quite basic and offered limited variety. We also found that it was largely the same each day, which made it feel a bit repetitive.
