We stayed with another couple in houses over the water, the place is a true paradise to experience. From the snorkelling in the warm ocean, wildlife, food and a real time to relax. We stayed 10 days which was enough for a good break, though we could have always stayed another 10! From arrival, staff are so helpful and friendly, especially during dinner where waiters remember your orders and bring the drinks without asking. Even upon leaving, we were escorted by Srijana - she was so helpful, friendly and putting the customer first. she was telling us about the upgrades coming to the hotel which makes us want to return, and try more cinnamon hotels - Thank you for a great trip and looking forward to returning! If I were to make a comment on improvements, it would be based on the drinks served. Please use fresh juice for the cocktails, as cordial and other artificial tasting ingredients can lower the quality of the drink. Also, it'd be good if the A La Carte restaurant was put to better use, with evening meals being expensive, why not have more reasonably priced lunches or dinners like a BBQ that people wouldn't mind trying..
