A wonderful, relaxing, stay at the Oberoi. The service levels were superb, on a par with the Four seasons and MO. The room was large and well equipped. One of the best showers that I've had.
The gym, was an OK size with a steam room in the changing rooms. The main swimming pool is large and heated. The on site Padi Dive centre was great and made it so easy to dive straight from the hotels jetty.
The resort has its own private beach and as you walk down, the staff approach with towels and a cool box of water. The downside is that there is a coral reef just off shore, so you cant really swim, just paddle. You have to go in off the jetty to swim or snorkel. its not such a long walk, but the sea was quite rough, which put most people off.
The WIFI didn't work on the beach, which is fine, however it didn't work by the main pool either, as well as the breakfast area or the courtyard restaurant. For a five star resort this is very poor. The dive center and gym had separate WIFI so i don't know if there was an issue at the resort. In the rooms it was fast and you could plug your our devices into the TV.
However the main downside was that its so windy. Really windy the whole 4 days we were there. The sun beds are sheltered from the wind just on 2 sides, which makes you think its always windy.
In summing up, fantastic staff and facilities, in a quiet relaxing, expensive resort.
