This property is nestled in nature. We had an amazing stay of 4 nights. Just keep in mind that this resort is not on the beach and they don’t sell alcohol. But you can bring your own from nearby by 7-11. (Half a mile).

Delightful place, amazing staff and delicious buffet breakfast with hot, cold options from stir fries to porridge, fruit and baked good. There is a free shuttle a couple of times a day to and from the beach. The staff and very lovely and will help you out. The only downside is it's a little bit away from most things but this keeps it quiet and very situated right at the edge of the forest. There are a few squirrels around too! If you call them up they may be able to give you a further discounted rate over what's on the apps
