    Very nice location, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, nearby the ocean! This was amazing ! The bungalow super comfortable. Perhaps I would comment the cleaning maintenance as a point for attention as the toilet seemed not to have been cleaned very well. In addition, I got some stomach disorder which I assume it was due to the ice of the drinks, so it would be recommended if this could be handled with extra care in the future.

    Only slight downside is that there's no pool but it's right on the beach so it's no big deal

    Eddie and the team treat you as family here! ❣️ You feel so well looked after. Nothing is too much trouble! They were great with the kids, so chilled and the rooms were great and spotless. Food and drinks were great. Wonderful atmosphere. The team work hard way before you even wake up to make everything just perfect for you.

    I would have liked to have tea/coffee facilities in the room. The location whilst idyllic, is a little way from the main areas and involves a walk through some areas which aren’t well lit at night (not the hotel’s fault) so it’s worth considering transport when it gets dark. I suggested lights be added to the bikes which the lovely manager took on board.

    A very relaxed stay in a stunning location. The bungalow I stayed in was lovely. It was clean, cool and serviced each day. I loved the hammock on the small balcony area. It was very private, located back from the path. Being able to hire bikes directly from the hotel was brilliant. The food and drink offer was very good. The beach area was beautiful with plenty of seating and I loved the addition of the swings around the seating areas. It was very quiet and a as a solo female traveler I felt very safe.

    Maybe too far from the port and given the sand instead pavement , it can be hard for anyone with heavy luggage to walk to the hotel. So you will need to hire a charriot , which can be expensive for local standards

    Breakfast has fruits, juice and a choice of eggs, enough for a good start

    It doesn't have a pool, the sea swing had the ropes covered in greenish mold and you couldn't get on it. It's disgusting! The maintenance could be improved. The water pressure in the shower was very low.

    The location is very good. The staff in general is very friendly and professional. We organized a snorkeling trip and it went very well. The price was in line with others (Eddy was very good, he is trustworthy, the others were also very good). The room was great, I would like to point out that we took the superior room.

    - Our towels had visible stains but were clean.. - The Wi-Fi was not working 100%. We were stuck in loading often.

    Loved the bathroom and the minimalist aesthetic of our bungalow. We spent a lot of time in our hammock! So relaxing with the beautiful trees around. The food was ‘ok’ but the fish BBQ was very tasty. Much better than other options around the island. The staff (a bunch of chill-out guys) was very kind… overall it has a very relaxed and laid-back vibe.

    A bigger menu and some plant milk options for coffee would be great. It didn't really matter though, there was a big pot of black coffee brewing every morning, you can get plant milks from the convenience stores and there are lots of other great restaurants within a short walking distance.

    It's a lovely, quiet side of the island, at the northern end of the lagoon. Beautiful cabins, well designed, great hot water shower, good ac, super comfortable bed, and a good little fridge. I love that the walls are all glass so you can see the gardens, and had big curtains so you can close them for privacy when needed (though this may just be some of their newer cabins). They had fresh green coconuts and the restaurant has some gorgeous little covered platforms with cushions to sit in and watch the ocean or the incredible sunsets.

    The staff is amazing—so friendly, kind, and fun! We had such a great time chatting with them. We explored the whole island, and Island View's location is by far the best—quiet, with the perfect spot to swim, relax, and catch the sunset. It's literally the best patch on the island. The restaurant is fantastic, with superb food. The Mie Goreng was the best we had on our trip, and the breakfast was delicious! The room is super cute and comfortable.
