"Beautiful resort - it really has everything you need. We stayed in one of the beachside pool villas, and it was everything we could hope for. Amazing views from the private infiity pool, separate 'living' room with a minibar that was restocked each day, excellent bed and a nice big bath in the bathroom too."
