If you get the room we did, the photos look nothing like it. The furniture was old and stained, the room wasn’t as clean as you would expect an Accor property to be and there is no way to have a shower without being seen from the kitchen/living area. We booked a 1 bedroom not a studio.

The property was clean, modern and spacious. Behind gated entrance which made it safe. The receptionist Polly has a welcoming smile, and was super helpful in checking in with a map and places to see. On our check out day we had a storm and our journey back wasn’t until later, Polly was super helpful and accommodating making sure we had our room for longer to keep us out the storm. We really appreciated this. Thank you

Amazing accommodation with great views

The apartment was so beautiful and had incredible views! This might have been my favorite accommodation I’ve ever stayed at. The staff member Poliane was also incredibly helpful and kind. She gave us some great tips on what to do on the island to make our experience even more enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this place!

Beautiful location and great service

We had an amazing time at a beautiful location. Our initial room had some problems - microwave didnt work, air con was noisy, no coffee machine as promised - so without fuss we were upgraded to a larger apartment for the remaining days

Over all Amazing!

The manager of the hotel is amazing and catered for all our holiday needs. Unfortunately the unit is privately owned and is in desperate need of new beds and a freshen up. The resort is just beautiful and location the best we have been.

Our room was great and the staff were friendly and provided excellent communication. The property was within a 2 minute walk from the ferry terminal. Our room had a good size balcony for pm drinks and we could watch the ferries come and go. The property has 4 pools, but for us the best was in block 1 the same as our room. This pool had more sunshine than the others which could be shaded much of the day or windy. The roof top in block 1 was mostly sunny.
