Sun island as i recall is a tad far away. I remember i had to take a seaplane. The resort itself was huge, plenty of food choices, plenty to do, and even had bicycles. You can find yourself a secluded spot easily rather than stick to one part of the beach. I loved this place, if it wasnt so far... More

I have to copy what the previous reviewer said because she worded perfectly! Yet, I want to highlight " bare essential" as nothing fancy is served. There are two restaurants that are really expensive ( a small coke is 6$) if you don't prepay for your meals in the main dinning which is ok. If you upgrade to water bungalows,... More

Definitely one of the best vacation we have ever had. The island is amazing and the staff is really nice and helpful. We had stayed in the water villa and it was spectacular – sitting on the porch and watching the sunset; snorkeling in the ocean just a few steps from the bedroom. The food was very nice and versatile,... More

Sun Island is picturesque. Feeling of being one with nature, takes you back to what life is about - relaxation, peace and tranquility. Bare essentials that keeps you comfortable and also not being bogged down with all of modern technology.For an island getaway, this is really about being on your own island. Beautiful, well maintained resort. We stayed in the... More

We were there for our honeymoon and I would've chosen a better place for those beautiful moments. The place and the location is just out of this world with world class service and food. Its like an city in the middle of a sea. We stayed in the water bungalows which was just awesome. Best place to spend any beautiful... More

We have been to Sun Island 5 times over the last 7 years. We have 2 young children & we absolutely love everything about it! The Island is lovely (although it is very sad to see it getting gradually washed away each time) The people that work there are all friendly and nice. They recognise us each year & remember... More
