the breakfast had a good combination of different cuisines. attention to detail was apparent in the preparation of dishes.
the bathroom was small. the beach chairs were not very cozy and there weren't enough. the sea contained dangerous jellyfish, so swimming was discouraged.

i found the team at the front desk provided a very lovely room, it had a view of the infinity pool and the arabian sea. the housekeeping staff decorated the room well. i had a welcome cake and bottle of wine. i really felt at home. f&b was superb with very attentive and quick staff at banyan tree and caravela.
i found the bathroom somewhat old, it did not have a separate shower cubicle. the old head shower in the tub was inconvenient. i believe an upgrade is needed here.
