Spacious villa, comfortable beds and lounge and a beautiful outlook through the trees towards the water. The villa is a walk along boardwalks and stairs back to the resort and pool but it is well appointed and comfortable.

Reception was hopeless. Had to return a few times to get correct information. And dinner at Maheno food was great but table service was woeful. Looked like only the manager knew what to do. Need to train your wait staff
