"Idílico sitio, espectacular en todo, paisajes y sitios hermosos, buenos restaurantes con excelentes chefs en todos los estilos mundiales. Lo único a anotar son los excesivos costos de actividades cómo buceo, snorkel y demás acuáticas además de bebidas alcoholicas y no alcoholicas muy superiores a hoteles y resorts 5 estrellas cómo este a nivel mundial más aún teniendo en cuenta que la isla es el hotel y no hay más que aceptarlas y pagarlas. Por lo demás inolvidable experiencia."
