Stunning and luxurious upscale resort at a private island. The beauty of the island is breathtaking. The service is impeccable and the rooms were very clean. It worths the price tag and more. The infinity pool is gorgeous and we especially loved the private pool at the water bungalow. The staff was extremely friendly. I highly recommend it.
