فوری جائزہ: A content creator's dream set that feels a bit like a budget motel once you put the camera down.
@alikainwanderlust نے جائزہ دیا: I felt like a mermaid here! The pool winds through the whole resort, and using the clear kayak was such a fun experience. It’s super lush and green, making every corner perfect for photos. Definitely book a pool access room!

The hype
Visually stunning pool area that looks exactly like the photos, but the rooms and service often feel 'budget' rather than 'luxury'.
Reality check
The glass canoes are a war zone—there are only two of them, and guests fight over them for photos starting at sunrise.
Your primary goal is Instagram content
You want a quiet pool day away from crowds
You are comfortable renting a scooter to get around
صفائی اور مرمت
7
Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Some guests report late service (5pm) or missed refills.
Bathroom hygiene: Generally clean but prone to 'sewer smells' due to plumbing issues common in the area.
Maintenance: Signs of wear appearing; peeling paint and humidity damage in ground floor rooms.
Linens & towels: Usually fresh, though occasional reports of stains or wear.
Odors & scents: Lobby is fresh, but rooms can smell musty/damp if AC isn't running.

Are the glass canoes free?
Yes, they are free to use, but there are only two of them and they are first-come, first-served.
Is the beach good for swimming?
It's decent at high tide but can be rocky and 'wild' (uncleaned) at low tide. It's across a road, not directly connected.

Is breakfast halal?
No, the hotel serves pork, but there are halal-friendly restaurants like Hillhouse nearby.
How far is the airport?
About 1 hour by car (45km). Allow extra time for traffic.
Is it good for families?
The pool is fun for kids, but the glass bathroom walls in some rooms can be awkward for families needing privacy.

Wake up at 6:30 AM if you want a canoe photo without 10 people watching you.

Walk 10 minutes to 'The Cove' for a much better dining experience than the hotel restaurant.
✨
The 'floating breakfast' is paid and must be booked in advance—it's mostly for photos, food is average.
