"If you're coming for the beach, and only for that please do go to this resort. One of the nicest beach in these Islands.
Main issues where the lack of pressure in the shower ( cant get rid of the sand ) , the rooms and all of the commodities are outdated. The resort lives of the beach and its reputation.
Food is alright, don't expect anything great from this.
Taxi boats are mandatory to move around, price is doubled starting 7pm, so when you need to go outside to eat for example.
No taxis when raining so be careful to not get stranded on the other side.
Happened to us and we had to book a night in another hotel ( which was the best sleep we had our whole stay )
Rooms are decent, bed wasnt cleaned before we came in and was sandy / dirty. Lots of noise coming from the wildlife around the hotel, so if you're expecting a quiet stay, go elsewhere.
The beach is very very nice, you can see turtles, sharks and lots of different species of fishes.
The whole resort needs renovation.
I'd give it a 2.5 out of 5, and that's only because of the beach, the fishes and the sunny weather."
