“Superb”
11 Apr 2025
Beautiful cabana right on the beach. Service was great.

“Enjoyable stay, staff were very good and amazing opportunity to swim with the sea turtles.”
03 Apr 2025
Great location to be able to enjoy the sea turtles in their natural habitat.

“Fantastic location, beach right on your doorstep, quaint thatched cabins very well spaced out.”
26 Mar 2025
Fantastic location, beach right on your doorstep, quaint thatched cabins very well spaced out in the grounds. While expensive compared to other modern accommodation, the huts while basic are very comfortable, but you are definitely paying for the privilege of space overlooking the ocean. They could easily fit in more huts but have chosen not to. Beds were very comfortable. Large verandah area out the front of huts. Staff were genuinely extremely friendly and ensured huts and grounds were cleaned regularly. The sand beach area unfortunately is limited, as over the past few years a lot of the sand has been washed away, however the main draw is the turtles which inhabit the area which you can swim with.

“Magical experience!”

Location, stunning views, spacious beach front bungalow, beautiful staff, swimming with turtles.
