Best stay for calmer days.
Pros:

Location was awesome right in front of the beach and away from all the noise. You can have breakfast by the beach. Huge pool but didn't use since we had all the beach in front of us.

Staff was good. Especially denny. Sincerely attentive and always smiling. Very friendly and food was good too.

Cons:

Mosquitos were a bit nuisance but considering its an island they were everywhere. Staff gave us bug spray which kept them away

Fantastic stay for family travelling with two teenage kids! Highly recommend.
Pros:

We had such a lovely relaxing stay at Mala Garden. We treated ourselves to the Villa with private pool and we are so happy that we did! The Villa & Pool were fantastic! The staff were so friendly and helpful. Breakfast on the beach everyday was great! We rented bikes and cycled the island. Highly recommend for families travelling with teenagers.

Cons:

More constant hot water in the shower.

Amazing! Highly recommend!
Pros:

The villas were roomy and comfortable. Al of the staff were beyond friendly. Included breakfast was quite substantial.

Cons:

It’s about a 15 minute bike ride from the bustling port area & bikes were in need of an upgrade.

Pros:

A noi è piaciuto davvero tantissimo! Il resort si trova sulla costa ovest, più tranquilla, ha una spiaggia molto bella, il pomeriggio la marea si ritira e bisogna spostarsi altrove per fare il bagno ma l'isola è piccola e si raggiunge tutto in poco tempo. Tramonti meravigliosi! Belle piscine, bella camera grande e pulita. Ma ciò che fa veramente la differenza è lo staff. Tutti gentilissimi, sorridenti, dolcissimi e professionali. Un grande grazie di cuore a tutti, avete reso il nostro soggiorno davvero speciale!

Pros:

Em frente à melhor praia da ilha. Pequeno-almoço muito bom e feito na hora. Quarto espaçoso e confortável. Funcionários muito simpáticos e solícitos.

Cons:

Pouca iluminação nas escadas de acesso aos quartos. A música, na praia, podia estar um pouco mais baixa.

Fijn verblijf met heel veel lief personeel!
Pros:

We hebben echt een hele fijne tijd gehad hier met twee gezinnen.
Het personeel is ontzettend vriendelijk en behulpzaam.
De kamers zijn netjes en schoon.

Cons:

Het ontbijt is wat eenzijdig, maar de omgeving lekker met de voetjes in het zand maakt weer veel goed!
