We loved staying here with such friendly and helpful staff and an amazing view it was definitely a great place to stay. The view of the ocean from the restaurant and the food made for a beautiful dinner and drinks at the end of the day especially at sunset. Breakfast was delicious as well. Will definitely recommend to friends coming to the area in the future!

This resort was amazing for our honeymoon trip! They gave us a phone for communication and for use around the island for a GPS. The staff was amazing with giving us recommendations and helping make reservations. One of our favorite rituals was the bedtime ritual with the nightly tea that we will definitely incorporate back home.

My fiancé and I had one of our best vacations to date. The villa we had was beautiful and our view was one of the best to wake up to every morning. Our staff was very accommodating with local recommendations for food, travel and ways to move around the island. We were given a cell phone to communicate with the front desk each and every question we had a they were very responsive. We will 100 percent be back.
