We had a wonderful 11 night stay. The view from the villas was wonderful and sitting on the front deck one morning we had the wonderful experience of seeing whales right out from our accommodation. We were told about all the local events and places of interest by our hosts even down to the local bakery that makes the best croissants. With happy hour once or twice a week it gave us a good chance to meet other visitors staying at this small 8 villa accommodation. We stayed in two different ocean view villas during our stay, 5 & 6 nights and both had their really good points. We would recommend this accommodation, only one thing against it is that you can’t swim right outside your villa but you are only a short distance from the beautiful lagoon. You WILL ENJOY this accommodation.

Was right on the beach, you can see the sun rise every morning. The best part was how lovely the hosts were. They really made us feel welcome and did everything they could to make us comfortable. Such a wonderful couple.
