The hotel is a fantastic place set along the lagoon and the beach, offering newer units and kayak facilities, but may lose some charm at night. The service is exceptional, with warm and attentive staff like Fiona going the extra mile. The location provides privacy and a sense of community, directly on the lagoon with a bay perfect for swimming. The dining options are somewhat limited, but the beach hut breakfast experience is enjoyable.

The Spanish Elm room could be the way to go when we need more space, as it offers big, clean, and comfortable accommodation. The hotel staff, including the manager, were kind and helpful, arranging some fun surprises for my husband's 40th birthday with a delicious cake and a bottle of sparkling wine. The location is beautiful, providing a unique island feel with spacious and natural surroundings. The dining options were varied, with the Gazebo dinner restaurant standing out for its quality food and stunning sea views.
