Staff was very helpful on our way there and back, however whilst we were on the resort, especially those by the pool were slightly absent minded. Having said that, it’s been a great experience with tastefully designed interior in the room / villa and I’d go again for a quiet relaxing retreat.

Nice facilities!

The facilities are amazing! What made me happy, was to see that the hotel and employes take care of the dogs of the island. I hope they have a program to castrate the female, so they keep healthy. It was joyfull to have them with us! Amazing pool, restaurant and the rooms are also super cosy with nice furniture.

The property is on the secluded island by itself. No adult hotels or restaurants rooms are beautiful and dining room area. Very nice. He can only be rich by boat stuff barely speak English I would say no English so the only way to communicate is through WhatsApp.

Very happy with our stay would absolutely recommend. The boat pick up situation was a little confusing as the tent they had indicated as theirs seemed to be occupied by a family spending the day at the beach… but when we returned it seemed like it was a specific tent for makani. Many people on the beach will ask you where you are going to try and get you in their boat… the makani crew all work makani shirts - we had them show us their pick up list so we could be certain it was the right boat. Beyond that the room was incredible the private pool deck fantastic, staff very lovely and helpful and all common areas were gorgeous. Food was also really good and a la carte breakfast included was delicious. Very happy we chose to spend the last few days of our trip here.
