Pros:

De lodges zijn super met een waanzinnig uitzicht, alsook de plek waar je ‘s avonds dineert of bij het zwembad. Je bent meteen op vakantie, omgeven door natuur. Het eten is ook super!

Cons:

Het personeel is niet zo vriendelijk

Coup de cœur pour cet endroit en pleine nature
Pros:

Quel endroit magnifique pour passer des vacances. Les chambres sont confortables et propre, le personnel est sympathique, la nourriture sur place est excellente et les aires communes sont bien aménagées. On se sent en pleine nature. Je recommande fortement l’endroit.

Cons:

Le seul point négatif serait l’accès à l’eau chaude parfois difficile

When can I come back
Pros:

This was one of the best places I've ever stayed in (I'm only 24). The balance between being in the middle of nature, and having some luxury, space, incredible food... it's exactly what I wanted. I felt like a retired old lady being perfectly taken care of.

Struttura calorosa, Staff glauciale
Pros:

Bungalow bello e terrazza bellissima con vista splendida sull'oceano e l'isola di Brava
Piscina bella
Cena e colazione con scelta per vegetariani e vegani
Organizzano il trasporto dall'aeroporto per 1000 CVE e dal porto a 1500 CVE

Cons:

Lo staff è glaciale e non parla neanche una parola di inglese, spagnolo, francese e italiano, rendendo difficile ogni discussione e richiesta.
Non c'è lo shampoo nella doccia
Se siete aracnofobici cambiate struttura (sono innocui e proteggono dagli altri insetti, ma se siete sensibili può essere un problema)
