I love this property overall but the standout for me was RUPA, the therapist - who was absolutely amazing! The massage was beyond perfect. Absolutely recommend her, if you stay here and are interested in going to the Spa. Even Sandeep the lounge supervisor was an amazing staff to chat with. A great experience overall!

My fiancé and me did the couple massage. The two massage therapist were Jan and Rupa. Really good treatment and we feel relaxed and totally refreshed. Very professional and good. We will come again and do it again. Very recommendable for getting away.

We went for some sun to escape the UK winter. We really enjoyed our stay. Staff were excellent - friendly and helpful. The food is varied and good. Setting and grounds are beautiful with direct access to the sea. We had a large comfortable room with good views. There are a good range of activities in the hotel. We particularly enjoyed the snorkeling round the island...yes you do swim with Turtles. Although the hotel is relatively isolated you can rent a car and driver from the in house travel agent (first star) at a very reasonable rate. So we were able to explore local towns and go walking 20 km from the hotel at modest cost. There are also shops, restaurants and museums just opposite the hotel. The hotel is child friendly. Very international clientele - we have enjoyed meeting people from other nations. Read less
