    The villa with the private pool was beautiful and perfect for our two young children. The rooms were of good size and the facilities in the room were good too, jacuzzi bath, shower, air conditioning etc. The staff were (mostly) also excellent. Very welcoming and friendly. There were daily check ins via WhatsApp, which was a nice touch, and a portable WiFi device was provided on arrival, which worked very well.

    Our hillside villas 19 and 20 had fantastic views. We enjoyed the many2 steps (haha!) simply for the experience. Alyssa & brandon were great from start to end. We ate every meal for 4D3N at the cafe, except for one in room dining & a beachfront experience - consistently yummy food & friendly staff. Boat transfer from sutera harbour was perfect!
