The most amazing place we have ever stayed at! The staff was incredible, kind, helpful, and would walk down to the dock and hand us food during happy hour. The dock right on the water seems the best on the island. Snorkeling to right of dock is the best and taking a water taxi to the small island to snorkel is a must do 10/10 recommend!

We are thankful for the helpfulness of the staff, especially Armanda. She went above and beyond assisting us with activities, locating shopping areas, recommending restaurants and even going as far as arraigning a food delivery when a lot of restaurants were closed. The room was clean, spacious and had all we needed for our stay. The ocean view was great. The patio area outside the room was large and useful for morning coffee and afternoon drinks. The area is nice and quiet and it truly feels like paradise.
