"Unbelievable service — Florence and the staff made us feel like family, always greeting us by name (and even with hugs!). Our beachfront bungalow was spotless and comfortable with stunning views. Breakfast and dinner were excellent, and the location right on the beach is perfect. Highly recommend renting a car to explore, but it’s hard to leave this special place. Truly unforgettable!"

Club Raro Resort – Adults Only

Club Raro Resort – Adults Only

10/10 Excellent
"The daily cleanliness of the rooms, the most welcoming and friendly staff you could ever ask for, aqua socks and snorkel sets provided and the fact it's an adults only accommodation meant waking up with no screaming kids while you're trying to nurse a hangover. This type of hosting and accommodation was a game changer to our girls trip, and I'll definitely recommending and stay again in the future. BEST. TRIP. EVEERRRR!!"
