Rooms were 4 star quality and not 5 star Location was great and ocean front villas are great. Food quality was 3/10 and I tried every property on site. Fact that the resort is so far and I paid hefty price to get there from male (45min sea plane ride), it just felt underwhelming for the amount of money they charge. Certainly not a 5 star level resort. I would say it’s a good 4 star resort

We stayed in the Superior Water Villa with pool with sunset facing view. Good length pool, however in the room the facilities and interior are a bit dated but everything worked and was clean. Each room had use of their own bikes so you could cycle around the island but you also had a buggy service on request as well. Our on call personal assistant Fayaz was very helpful whenever we needed any assistance which made our whole stay even more special. The resort is all inclusive with enough restaurants and a nice selection of foods and wines for a nice international experience. Whilst it isn’t the cheapest being all inclusive the place was not crowded, however you do need to hop on a 45mins seaplane to get here which is another cost on top. The general service and attitude of all the staff working there were great leaving us with an enjoyable lasting memory.

What an amazing resort! As a single traveler, the transfers to and from the resort were seemless. I enjoyed the property and having the bicycle and golf cart access, made getting around easy. But what made this resort a highlight was the staff. Everyone was cheerful and outgoing. This resort had it all - good food, beautiful location and much much more. Can't wait to return.
