Very comfortable modern clean lodge with everything you need. Great location! The star gazing at night was amazing and I saw a frigate bird soaring on the tropical breezes.

The bungalow is beautiful and well equipped with all you need for a comfortable stay. The beach is at walking distance. Well maintained and clean
We didn’t have much contact with the property management but that wasn’t an issue for us.
