I recently stayed at this resort and found it to be a mixed experience. The gardens and views from the bungalows are simply stunning, making for a tropical oasis. However, while the service was friendly, cleanliness was a major issue, as the rooms were not well-maintained during my stay. Overall, it’s a lovely setting, but there are areas that definitely need improvement.

The rooms have a beautiful view and are set in well-maintained gardens, but mine wasn't as clean as I expected. It didn't feel very comfortable, and I noticed a lamp that never got replaced. Rating: 6

The owners were very accommodating and tried their best to make my stay pleasant. However, the laundry service needs better attention, as my clothes didn’t come back clean. Rating: 7

The resort's location is quite perfect for exploring the island, but accessibility to the beach can be tricky depending on the tide. Sometimes, the sea view is obstructed, which can be disappointing. Rating: 8
