My husband and I celebrated our belated honeymoon at the resort for 3 nights. We stayed in a beach villa (room 128) with half-board (breakfast & dinner buffet). The room was equipped with a tv, mini-fridge, tea making station, vanity, bed, chairs, patio with chairs, back door with feet washing station (which we thought was genius!), and 24 hours of hot water. The buffet food was decent and we bought lunch everyday at the restaurant (usually a sandwich approx. $5). We took a lot of our own snacks, which was a good decision since the gift shop had a very limited selection and was quite pricey. We did however have a couple cockroaches in our room even though we were very careful with throwing out all our wrappers and zipping up our food.

We genuinely enjoyed our stay at the resort. We loved having access to the beach just a couple feet away from our patio and being able to listen to the waves as we fell asleep at night. The snorkeling around the house reef was also amazing! It is just a 5 minute swim out and you will be at the edge of the coral and what we referred to as the "deep blue" ocean. We saw hundreds of fish, some reef sharks, squid, and an eagle ray. We took our own snorkeling equipment and we are glad we did. Renting costs $7 /day and it didn't seem like they had very good quality gear to rent.

We paid extra to rent a kayak ($20/hour) and easily made our way around the island. (If you kayak at a slow speed you can kayak around the island 2 times in 1 hour.) While kayaking you can easily see the coral and the marine life. We had a reef shark swim right underneath us! They offer other rentals such as standup paddleboards, windsurfing, jet skis (pricey!!), tubing etc.

We also paid extra for a 50 minute massage at the Coconut Spa on the resort. It was very relaxing and the massage room opens up directly to the water. ($90/ 50 minute Balinese massage)

Check out is at noon and the resort prearranges a speedboat transfer for you back to the airport according to your flight time. We asked nicely if we could change our time and tag along with an earlier boat so we could have time to see Male before our flight. We got the impression they don't usually allow it (and would charge $45 extra per person to change the time) but because we were tagging along with a transfer that was already arranged they made an exception. They also offer a complimentary "shower room" to use for 30 minutes when they have extra rooms available and you had already checked out. That was really nice to use to freshen up before our departure.

All in all we would recommend this resort to future travellers.

Me and My sister stayed for 5 days in this beautiful resort, the villa was very clean and every room occupied with tea-making facilities. the meals was delicious espp dinner choice, but the breakfast was very standard :( they need to work on that.
the island is small and beautiful, loads of birds singing in the trees also, and the island is spotless.
the beach is great for swimming and sunbathing too.
highly recommended :)

My wife and I went here on our honeymoon between 24 June and 5 July 2012. We booked this as a once in a lifetime trip and it certainly lived up to our expectations.

Good points:
* Transfer between the airport and resort by speedboat is very impressive. We saw dolphins on the way.
* When we arrived at the destination we were given a cold drink and cold towel which is very welcome after 10 hours on a plane + going through the airport in Male!
* Staff are very friendly, polite and take your luggage to your room. We noticed some negative comments on here regarding staff and can't understand this at all - they go out of their way to make sure you're looked after.
* Rooms are fantastic. They are cleaned twice a day and have everything you'd want in there and more - TV, fridge, tea/coffee facilities, beach towels, safe, life jackets, showergel, etc.
* The food was excellent. There was lots of variety and something for everyone, although fewer vegetarian options (not an issue for us but worth noting).
* Excursions were good but some have minimum customer requirements and are cancelled if not enough people want to go. We did the island hopping tour which was excellent although we only got to see 2 of 3 islands due to unpredictable weather.
* Spa is excellent but pricey. Had a 30 minute back massage that was $65. Generally everything on the island is expensive and they charge you for certain things you may expect to be gratis at such a resort (e.g. you pay for wifi).

Negative points:
* There are no shops or anything on the island other than accommodation/reception. Anything you can buy, including drinking water, is purchased at the bar.
* Evening entertainment is short and basic. They had a magician who was very good but other nights they just showed short videos advertising their activities. Entertainment is repeated on a weekly basis so there is nothing "new" after one week of being there.

Other points:
* Island is small and can be walked around in 20 mins. Little to do other than sunbathe/swim. BUT... this is great if you're after a relaxing break where you can literally do nothing. Would recommend the island hopping excursion to see other nearby islands.
* Weather is hot and humid but unpredictable. As well as blue skies/sun we had thunder, lightening, rain, cloud and wind.
* Sea is great for swimming and snorkelling. There are lots of fish and reefs to explore. Current can be strong but the rooms have lifejackets so you can wear these when going out.
* When we went (June/July 2012) we were one of the only English couples there. Most people were from China or Germany which meant conversation with other guests was limited (on our part!).

We went here for our honeymoon but this is not exclusively a couples place - families and groups of friends were also there. Overall this was a fantastic place to visit and a very memorable location. I would recommend this to anyone.
