Sunset Resort - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent
"The staff were amazing and super accommodating. Couldn’t fault anything the whole time. Afternoon cocktails in the pool was a highlight. Lovely hammocks on the beach and super relaxed environment. Clean rooms, very nice pools, excellent snorkelling directly off the beach front. Bus stop right outside. Staff were exceptionally helpful on every front. "
