Like paradise. A kind house keeper - Ranjith, room 390 - and very nice members of staff. Alam - a waiter at the restaurant - was a very kind and attentive person. It was a wonderful experience in all.

A beatiful resort with the most pleasant of staff. Food was very good in the buffet restaurant but the Japanese & Italian were superb. Two names of note who should have additional bonus and recognition for their customer services 1. Our house keeper SHOHEIL 2. Resteraunt waiter BABLOO I request that the Mgt recognise these two people. Great holiday Thanks

Went line fishing @ sunset. Highly recommendable!! A nice crew, and boy, what fish we catched!! And then, the final event topped it all! The chef's Kazal & Silva @ the island fishing BBQ made the perfect feast out of our fish (we caught 2 red snapper). A must for every fish lover!
