Wonderful island stay

I enjoyed the superior comfort of the beautiful beachfront room. It featured a king-size bed. The room included a stocked mini-bar with daily replenishment. The transfer speedboat was prompt and well organized... a great start to the vacation.

A Decent Stay. Some Misses

private jacuzzi speedboat journey friendly staff bedroom areas disappointing minibar canned fruit
The premium beach villa featured two floors, along with a private outdoor jacuzzi. It was quite special. The speedboat journey from the airport took less than 15 minutes, and my partner appreciated that. I found the staff friendly. They waved us off until we were out of sight, and it brought tears to my partner's eyes.
I found some areas needed more care, especially the bedrooms. The mini bar was disappointing. It only included two beers and two sodas. The food at the Gallery was a huge letdown. The fruit tasted like it came from a can, and the hot food was barely warm, twice.
