The resort island was lovely, staff were amazing and the buffet style food had plenty of choice across many cultures.
I stayed in an over water villa and whilst the island itself is rated at 4.5 star the accommodation was closer to a 3 but of course with an amazing view and direct stair access to the water.
The swing seats that often get shown are unbalanced on a lot of the terraces, mine included, not the end of the world but I didn't use it that often.
Cleaning staff came almost every day offering to clean/top up drinking water.
The AC had a musty smell but was quite effective at keeping the room cool, however the exterior unit made a loud noise which made me worry how the neighbours would hear it.
A lot of the thatch roofing needs replacing, terrace/walkways decking is damaged/loose in some places.
The room had cockroaches and ants but I was able to eventually get a spray bottle from reception and every day I would see a pest control man going along the walkway to the water villas.
Wi-Fi is terrible. Every room has its own router which means signal is amazing but In the early hours of the morning (when no one else is using it) I could get around 40Mbps but at any point during the day/early evening you are lucky to get 3Mbps.
The hotel TVs have a limited selection of downloaded movies and a few TV channels.
If you have kids make sure to download any videos/games in advance to keep them entertained especially if it rains which it did on a few days in February.
