  • Beautiful crystal clear seas, stunning beach and the water slide in the sea was a bit of fun. Not a massive amount to see snorkelling from the island but it was still enjoyable. Snorkelling from a boat is better. Island food was passable. We did feel a bit like sheep and a bit rushed but the island was definitely worth the trip.
  • Beautiful island, Crystal clear Sea. However if you want to catch a tummy bug this is your place!! We got seriously ill after our visit on Sunday. Also, if you like staff accusing you of stealing and demanding payment and taking no responsibility for their actions then come here! We went snorkeling gave back a broken snorkel, upon giving back all our items the staff were getting aggressive towards us and demanded payment, screaming at us to pay, once they realised they made a mistake they were embarrassed and would not say sorry!! Will not be coming back EVER!
