Excellent - best breakfast on our entire holiday. Needed transfers into town though, as some distance away

We stayed here for 3 nights late February.Our room,'Paradise suite' was excellent with fantastic views however it is not somewhere we would look to return. The location demands that your own transport is essential otherwise you are totally dependant on taxi's.We had to request that our bathroom be 're-cleaned' on more than one occassion and towels replaced.Our qualified guide/driver was very badly treated by one of the owners upon our arrival, (had we known the area this behaviour would have resulted in us moving elsewhere).Having no telephone in the room was inconvenient as all taxi's /resturant bookings had to be made from the main house and the owners especially in the evening were frequently out.Compared to other places we stayed at during our holiday in our opinion this is definately not a luxury five star retreat.
