Loved the ease of being able step out onto the beach from our room. Our room was very comfortable and spacious with everything one would need. Staff were very helpful, accomodating and friendly.
The only slight draw back was the very limited inclusive Tropical breakfast.

We really enjoyed our 2br apartment at Sunset. It was clean and well presented. The pools and gardens are really well kept. But we spent most of our time on the beach, snorkelling in the lagoon and watching the whales go by, amazing! Staff were also very helpful in booking activities and transfers.
