Procedure is to inform local authorities of any incident involving theft and as such... More

The fact is that the rooms can no way be classed as deluxe, they are below average at best! We complained after the first night and was upgraded to a "Super Deluxe" room but... More

Transfer to resort was an experience - a little scary. Beach not pristine but it is a volcanic island. Trip- did a helicopter ride it was great. Restaurant staff very friendly especially Rose. Birds in buffet restaurant yuk all over the place. Room basic. Probably won't go back.
