Oh my! we were so lucky to find a magnificent view, a sparklingly clean apartment and THE most comfortable bed. I could go on...I will...the interiors were understated and so well resolved...quality in all things - the coffee, the teas, the butter, the soaps, shampoos and moisturiser generous and so useable ...even the pack of cards and the cups we drank from! Our hosts, Sharon and Peter, really were hosts in their own low key island way enabling us to have an outstanding time in our 6 days due to their local tips. I love snorkeling, swimming, coral and fish and saw the best I have seen in years. We walked to the south end of the island and I went out to Balls Pyramid (so wild and spectacular), in the open sea with a capable local captain. Amazed when I saw myself in the mirror back in Sydney, I was so rested and well. We can't wait to go back. If it is your first visit to the island, you will love it - a south seas paradise full of palms, greenery and unique species. The apartment matched the island - high quality, well managed and friendly - with an eye to detail. One of the best outlooks from the accommodation choices on the Island. Proximity to the airport is actually a bonus enabling spectacular views of the mountainous rock. The small planes are very infrequent and add to the interest of the area. All in all - one of our best holidays - and so close to Sydney - why didn't we visit years ago?
