"It was close to town. Had a swimming pool. Needed more variety at breakfast. Airport shuttle expensive. Reception staff knew very little about things to do and see, and often gave wrong info."

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

It’s a relaxing holiday everyone is friendly and welcoming. To get good swimming beaches you need to go to the outer islands but there is enough to do on the main island and can swim at the hotel.

4/5 - Good

We went for the whale swim and had an amazing experience. Otherwise not a lot of activities or dining options in town

4/5 - Good

Hire yourself a car and drive around the island - it's easy to see all the sights in a day and essentially impossible to get lost!
