Amazing snorkelling right at your doorstep”

Unbelievable place with magical snorkelling among abundant coral and schools of fish right outside. Facilities are basic, no air conditioning, and the road to here is steep (with no roadlamps), but if you are aware of and mentally ready for not the most luxurious experience, you will be rewarded with amazing swimming in crystal clear waters in probably the best snorkelling spot on the island. The owner Clive is also a fun hoot, and always up for a chat or cheeky story. Highly recommend Room #9.

Excellent”

Amazing view from the balcony, great value for its money, but you will need a motorbike. One of the best snorkelling spots around the island, if there are no waves. Otherwise it is not possible to get into the water. The road to the apartment is very, very steep in the last part and if you're not a good driver, it might seem impossible. From the parking spot its still many steps down to the rooms. Theres nothing to buy groceries nearby, but that makes it special. You have no real ac, but the wind from the ocean and the sound of the waves makes it comfortable to sleep.

Located at a nice bay with good snorkeling. Quite place. Good value for money. Place for eating not really inviting. Chairs in my room were uncomfortable and lost color.

We booked the biggest room (no. 10) and we were very happy with our stay. Clive and his staff were very helpful. The only downside was that our apartment floor was carpet and very dusty. But the view from the room and the ocean and snorkelling access made everything worth it. Highly recommend this place as long as you are not expecting anything fancy. Minimal but amazing, would come back again next time!

Nice but has issues”

The place had me both really happy and in a bad mood at times. I’ll start with the good: - I had a beautiful big loft overlooking the sea with a huge balcony and so many beautiful plants - the kitchen was a plus, is fairly well equipped - the owner is really friendly and helps where he can (although there is a language barrier) - it’s fairly quiet (in terms of no party) - one can directly go into the ocean and snorkel bc it’s on large rocks not a dandy beach. Can go directly through a latter into deep water Now the not so good (that might not always be related to the place itself but still should be mentioned): - going there is a mess. Scooter is needed and you’ll have to go through bad road with very very steep hills. My friends had an accident because the hill was too steep and they too heavyweight 2 people on 1 bike. It just fell over - there are 3 scary dogs that chase you barking and coming really close to bike when going to the place. Also there is no lights on the road to the place, so it gets very scary and kinda dangerous at night - there is no mobile connection; wifi is good if it works but it stops 2-3 times a day for a short amount of time. There has been also days when it didn’t work at all. - it’s smells really weird, I think it’s because there is molt (but not sure). When it rains it drips from the ceiling. - everything fun is on the other side of the island. The place is really the only thing that the end of the road - there is definitely no restaurant (even though it says so) - only cold water shower - the walls are very thin, you can hear your neighbors as if they are in your room

Nothing to recommend but the pretty view and the snorkeling spot”

The place is quite far and the road is difficult to drive. Not recommended if you don't rent a motorbike. Food and taxis are not available. Had to carry luggage up and down stairs. The balcony of the room is different from the picture. I'm only impressed with the view and the dive sites that can be walked down from the apartment. There was only one officer who was quite kind. The room is quite old and has small insects. No phone signal, only wifi can be used.

This simply wasn’t the place for us. The location on the cliff is amazing but the place is really run down. Doesn’t look like the pictures. Idk what the sea side apartments are like but our garden one was absolutely not worth the price even with the Agoda discount. Trust the reviews about the killer hills to get here. It’s far from the beach. Just not for us. Maybe for someone wanting to camp out and not leave the place for a while
