Great hotel - we had a fantastic family holiday with lots of fun activities together but every member of our family enjoyed a very joyful individual time as well, was it snorkelling, kajak, glass bottom boat, yoga, relaxing time in the beautiful garden, on the beach or in the pools,... We enjoyed the delicious food in both restaurants and all the staff was so kind, friendly and helpful. Our six-year old daughter's favourite was the Tam Tam Kid's Club with so many nice activities offered and wonderful caregivers: it was her highlight. She felt very happy, safe and treasured by her caregivers, especially Hrasha, although our daughters English isn't so well. To know that our beloved daughter was well cared for gave us parents a relaxed holiday as well. Thank you Hrasha and all Tamassa Resort Team for a holiday in paradise! :-) Read less

Where do i start, this was quite honestly the most exquisite experience we have had as an extremely well traveled couple globally. The staff were polite, friendly and quite honestly could not do enough for us even down to the comfort of our sleep in which they provided a new mattress topper to ensure our stay continued to be out of this world. The food was something of perfection and the chef's were so accommodating and went the extra mile for us relentlessly there was not anything that they would not provide for us including an individual dining experience which was superb including a set up breakfast for us that we did not ask for. The cleanliness of the resort is fantastic and I could not fault any part of our visit we would 100% return. Read less
