“Verbally and Physically threatened by owners”

This "resort" is to be avoided by all travellers. Although it is in a visually stunning location, it is horribly run by abusive caretakers verbally abused and physically threatened me. In addition, the dive equipment is very poorly maintained and is therefore hazardous, the caretakers own a pack of 6-7 very large, semi-wild German Shepherds that have threatened and bit me. Finally, the island is home to poisonous scorpions WHICH THE FAMILY NEGLECTS TO TELL VISITORS ABOUT. This place is especially dangerous to solo travellers, as they are vulnerable to all kinds of threats and intimidation, and there is no way to leave the island should the situation become unbearable.

I had to stay at Glover's guest house before I went out to dive on Glover's reef. It is cramped, very basic and very isolated. It's not cheap for what you get and I highly reccommend that you book your accommodation at the lovely Toucan Sittee next door. It's only 5 minutes away from Glover's guest house and the property is well maintained set in a lovely garden. I ate all my meals there and they were delicious.

At Glover's guest house you get a tiny room with tiny and very firm beds and an electric fan. I think I paid around 28 US$. The toilet is in a separate building, the shower did not look inviting and there are bugs everywhere. The owner's children are somewhat noisy and it just seemed dirty and not very well maintained there. I was the only guest there and they hardly spoke to me. (Neglecting to give me important messages about my departure time for Glover's reef.)
