“The resort grounds are visually appealing and remarkably tidy, with spacious family-sized villas and a surprisingly well-equipped gym. Beachfront rooms are a good consideration, especially given the crystal-clear water right by the shore, which is excellent for snorkeling amongst abundant fish and corals, though caution is advised at high tide.”
