“The barefoot concept throughout the island harmonizes perfectly with the surroundings, creating an immersive tropical feel, from dining to recreation. I found the water bungalows particularly appealing, offering not just modern comfort but also direct access to the lagoon's clear waters. I think it's a superb location for both relaxation and engaging in water sports, enhanced by the on-site surf and sail team.”
