The island is beautiful beyond expectations and this is complimented by the fact that the stay is even more enhanced by the staff. There are great amenities and activities that can be undertaken and everyone is friendly and helpful. The rooms are large and quiet and all is perfect for a relaxing stay. The food is delicious and the coffee, too.
