"This property is very isolated, so pack snacks and even some games. We stayed 4 nights, but 3 would’ve been more than enough. The snorkelling on Black Island was fantastic. We did a full day and half day.
Felt a bit let down by payment options at the end. Could only pay by PayPal which is the most expensive way to settle a bill. To the management: Please establish a Wise account which is much cheaper for travellers and you. Also need to make sure guests know before staying about payment options (no credit card!).!
Wifi was sporadic and we were without for more than a day which was pretty annoying.
We were there in April ‘24 and very few guests around so limited on food options.
It will be much better when they upgrade a/c to split system. We were stuck with reverse cycle and they really did not cope with the heat and are too noisy.
Overall, a really beautiful and peaceful place to stay but limited in things to do and food options. "

"Chindonan is located in a remote place and I had no problem getting there after being picked up at the port from the ferry - 45 minute speedboat ride. I came here for the diving and it did not disappoint. The food at the restaurant was tasty and offered a variety, including for vegetarians. All units require many steps to get there so it’s not for those who don’t want or cannot walk distances and stairs. "
