Everything was amazing in the 2 nights we stayed here. From the staff who were wonderful and helpful. At some point, my boyfriend had left some clothes in Dhawa and the next day, this was delivered in Banyan Tree without us even knowing we left it behind. Also, we were picked up by Adam who was already there waiting for us at night. There were no issues at all and it was only 25 minutes boat ride. The facility was amazing too for all activities, we didn't feel the need to get out of the island as everything was already doable inside. Snorkeling was great and there were spots around the island already marked. Overall, it was a lovely chilled vibes around the island with lots of things to do. I also liked the idea of having rest areas, you can have coffees/juice at any time.
