A short walk across the road to a beautiful beach with kayaks, snorkel equipment available to use free of charge. Staff were wonderful and facilities great. The rosters in adjoining property can take a bit to get used to but would still highly recommend for location (beautiful sunsets) and value. Bus stop is right outside for the island bus."
