Why People Love It
- Stunning infinity pool that practically spills onto the kiteboarding action
- Modern, all-white Art Deco design that feels miles away from rustic island bungalows
- Andari Spa is legitimately top-tier and a destination in itself
Quick Take: It’s a sleek, sexy condo complex that prioritizes kiteboarding vibes over dead silence.
Reviewed by @Acting_and_Travel: I loved how easy it was to go from my room straight to the beach for kite surfing. The vibe here is so energetic, and cooling off in that infinity pool while watching the pros ride the waves was the highlight of my trip. Definitely the spot for active travelers.
Guest Who Stayed Here Said
Reality check

Cleanliness & Maintenance
8.5
- Housekeeping: Daily service is generally good, but sand is a constant battle they don't always win.
- Bathroom hygiene: Modern and generally clean, though grout lines in the showers can show age.
- Maintenance: The all-white decor shows scuffs easily; expect some visible wear and tear on furniture.
- Linens & towels: Towels are decent but the 'towel card' system is annoying; linens are crisp white.
- Odors & scents: Usually fresh, but ground floor rooms can sometimes smell damp due to humidity.
