This was our 4th visit to the island travelling with 3 other couples we shared 2 Villas. We could not have been happier with our choice! The Villas were everything we had hoped for and more. The location was perfect, close to Wigmores, walking distance to both Vaima and Yellow Hibiscus (Palm Grove). The snorkelling was the best we have... More

We were amazed by the beauty of the location and the sheer comfort and style of our villa. Our kind hosts had thought of everything - the fully equipped kitchen even had... More

'Cooks Bay Villas' is the most amazing holiday resort! Villas are superb. Each villia has two large bedrooms with a large ensuite for each. Fantastic 'outdoor' shower (hot & cold water) plus a spa pool. Your own laundry! The beach is brilliant. Great snorkling. Owners/hosts Shine & Simon are great!!! This resort is more than a 'Home away from Home'... More
