Reviewer Type: Family With Children
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: The location and setting were superb; its former name of jungle paradise was wholly appropriate. A short drive into Stonetown, 30 mins from Fumba (for an excellent boat trip) and 10 mins from the airport. This is not a high-end resort, but if you want a lovely, quiet beach, a restaurant with tasty food, a great view, and very attentive staff, all in a great location, come here.
Negative: The decor and fitting could do with a touch-up - in my opinion, it added to the stay.
Summary: Superb location and great value for money
