Love the view in this resort. The staff are really very accommodating and nice, response to their 
contact number is really quick. Be sure to make reservation since the resort somehow gives of a semi-
exclusive vibe. They have rooms that are really clean and well furbished, Food is also good and priced
reasonably. Resort is good for snorklers since it does not have a white sand stretch of beach, but the
mangroves in the beach provide the perfect shade for swimming.
