Boutique resort with excellent but unobtrusive service. Highly recommended. First-rate beds, great food, snorkelling and deep sea fishing, as well as hiking. Don't forget your camera because the sunsets are more than stunning - try sensational. As for swimming in the sea, enjoy 25 degree water, kilometres of safe beaches and friendly locals. We'll be back.

The staff is both friendly and professional, making you feel very welcome.... More
