They say 'welcome to paradise' and they are not wrong, from the transfer by hotel boat to the personal attention every member of staff afforded us. We are pescatarian and that can present problems when we travel but not here. Our travel agent, Destinology, had flagged this in advance and on our first day we were invited to a meeting with Fabio, the Head Chef, who listened to our concerns and promised to advise the chefs in each restaurant. They were all excellent and of particular note was Chef Denis in Portabello, who took time to meet with us and ensure we were well cared for. Food in all the restaurants was high quality and we enjoyed a good variety of options. The buffet style breakfast was excellent, both in the self serve choices and hot options that could be ordered freshly cooked. The restaurant waiting staff were all attentive with particular mention for Abel, who sang to me on my birthday and Muthoni, who looked after us well at breakfast. Our villa was quite lovely and maintained to the highest standard by our villa Host - Jackson. He could not do enough for us, constantly reminding us to reach out about anything and everything. The villa itself was spacious and well appointed, with doors opening onto a veranda, with table, chairs and loungers, from which we walked down on the beach and another pair of loungers and a hammock, above which the fruit bats feasted. A very short walk into the sea reinforced the wonderful location (bring beach shoes for the pebbles and shells). Would we come back?......in a heartbeat
