I had a fantastic diving holiday at this resort, with seamless transfers from the airport and some of the best diving experiences I've ever had. However, the standard rooms leave much to be desired and feel quite outdated. The service was attentive and friendly, but the dining options were somewhat limited, particularly for those seeking local flavors.

My stay at the resort was truly spectacular, with unbelievable snorkeling and diving experiences right at our doorstep. The friendly staff, especially the managers, went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. While the rooms could use some updating and had a bit of a moldy smell, the cleanliness and comfort of the ocean view room made up for it. Overall, great value for the experience, but the rooms felt a little outdated.

I had an absolutely wonderful stay at this resort! The location right by the ocean made it easy to enjoy beautiful sunsets from my room's private balcony. The diving experience was outstanding, with fantastic visibility and a wide array of marine life to see. However, the dining options could use some improvement as I found the breakfast a bit repetitive and some meals were overcooked. Overall, it's a great value for money if diving is your main focus!
