Underwhelming experience. Service fell short
the boat trip to the island was smooth.
I tried to book a room for new year's eve but i couldn't reach room reservations for over a week. I called every day. one day someone answered only after i threatened to post a review on trip advisor. unfortunately, because no one answered, they are now fully booked.

attentive staff adventure park disorganized boat improved signage
the room was spacious. the staff was attentive and quick to respond to my requests. the adventure park access added significant value to my trip.
i found the boat transfer to be slightly disorganized. the signage could be improved, as finding the correct departure point caused some confusion. also, some of the water activities seemed overpriced given the duration of the experience, expensive experience.
