Badian Island Vacation Packages

We were greeted with smiles and a lei of kalachuchi/plumeria. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The only compaint I have regarding the hotel is that its very dated and not well maintained. The dock was missing a few steps and scared it may give. The rooms were old and rustic, maybe a feel of being in an old cottage but AC was starting to drip in our room at the end of out stay and looked like it hasn't been replaced since the 80's. You also don't have a way to get around except walk! No golf cart or even just bikes or pedicab to get around since its a large property. Especially if you want to go to the best location for swiming/snorkeling. Otherwise you will need to wait for high tide to use the boat shuttle. The coral garden is a must go. I've been to many reefs all over the world, including the barrier reef and this is awesome withhout the need to take a boat ride for 2 hours. Its just a 2 minute swim from shore. :). The island also gives you a secluded feel and relaxation. Oh btw. No TV. Hehe. I wouldn't rate the hotel a 5 star, but a mere 3.5 maybe because of awesome staff.
