Great place to stay.
Igor, 5-night trip

8/10 Very good

This was a wonderful vacation experience. I would have rated my stay higher if not for the construction work being done on the north side of the property. It was very loud, and quite a scenic takeaway, considering that I booked a room with a balcony and ocean view. Aside from this let down, the staff, events, food, and overall property were lovely.

Amazing hotel the staff were always very smiley and super helpful. They were the highlight of the stay. The complex felt super safe. We used every pool and the beach area for relaxing. We also had the chance to book the restaurants in the hotel which all offered something different but were all great quality.

This resort is perfect. We had absolutely no complaints. Food was excellent. Staff was excellent. If we needed anything for our room, it was provided immediately. We booked safari, Safari Blue, Snorkeling and jet skiing through the hotel and they were very reasonably priced and exceptional. Thank you Rui Jambo for helping to make our visit to your island truly memorable.
