    private beach dinner

    The staff decorated our room with flower petals each night, a lovely surprise. Make sure to try the private dinner on the beach. It's totally worth it.

    Stunning and magnificent location amidst lush green well manicured garden on the shores of the Indian Ocean, easy to get around. Next to the white sandy beach and many activities as well as evening movies and wonderful nature and wildlife.

    fine beach
    luxurious private pool

    From the fine beach to the luxurious private pool, I reminded me of I was in paradise. The spa treatments were a dream, and the yoga sessions added that perfect zen vibe. Cycling around the hotel was a fun way to explore, and even the evening entertainment was great!

    varied food
    non-functional air conditioning
    outdated facilities

    Excellent variety in the food offered.

    The hotel needs urgent upgrades and maintenance. Our air conditioning was non-functional throughout the night. The internet service was absent in our room despite being close to the common areas, frustrating. After complaining, the hotel merely cited local conditions as the reason, which was like an inadequate excuse and left us feeling ignored . The facilities seemed outdated, and paying over $500 per night felt unjustifiable for the quality we received.
