10/10 Excellent

Beautiful quite serene island away from the hustle and bustle of city. A bit of challenge to reach the place so one needs to do a bit of research to reach there. If possible avoid private transfers, its damm cosly. Overall its a fantastic place to stay.

Such a tranquil beautiful resort in amongst stunning rainforest national parks. Island transfer options are limited and can add significant costs depending on mode of transport. No shops o n island so make sure to take adequate supplies of snacks etc with you.
