What an incredible experience staying here! We split our time between two rooms, which we found out is quite common. We staying in the junior suite which was spacious and we loved the private pool/garden area. Then spent the last two days in the gorgeous overwater bungalows. Both rooms were beautiful and incredible. The food was some of the best we've ever had and the staff were very friendly and patient as we practiced our French. We will be back here for sure

Words cannot express how grateful we are for such an amazing trip! The memories will be embedded in our hearts for our lifetime. The food was top notch. Staff was so helpful and friendly and the overwater bungalow was worth every penny. I cried when we had to go. Feel blessed to have shared 8 nights on such a wonderful property.

Lovely location (beautiful views!) with amazing staff (shout out to Ghislaine!). It is a bit expensive and things like the bike and scooter rentals are add-ons as well, but this is what I'd expect in an isolated area like this. Do recommend!
