“Beautiful resort”

Sep 17, 2025Venture19810523

Beautiful resort. Excellent weather for September. We stayed for 5 nights / all inclusive package in overwater villa nr 75. The spacious villa, italian / thai a'la carte and reef buffet restaurants, Coral bar, shark feeding, crystal clear water and smiling staff made our holiday memorable. Excellent customer service, staff anticipating customer needs and being proactive rather then reactive. Our favourite was the Italian restaurant. All our feedbacks were taken on board by the resort manager. Thank you all.
