"We stayed for 5 nights, which I think was about perfect - enough time to relax but not so long that we were bored on such a small island. The reef was beautiful and had lots of different corals, along with loads of fish. We don't dive so we snorkelled each day. We took our own masks but used Bokissa's flippers, which were excellent. The staff were consistently friendly and helpful. Whilst there was a child there (12 year old) while we were there, it seemed much more suited to couples."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Bokissa Island?
The best area to stay on Bokissa Island is directly on the main beachfront, as the island is small and the accommodations are centrally located.

Bokissa Island is a private island with a single resort, so your options are concentrated around the main beach and facilities. The resort is designed to offer a relaxed, private island experience, with bungalows and villas dotted along the white sand beach and located amongst the tropical gardens. Most accommodations offer direct beach access or are just a short stroll away.

For couples, the beachfront bungalows are ideal. They offer privacy and stunning views of the turquoise waters, great for a romantic getaway. You'll be steps away from swimming, snorkelling, and the resort's main dining area, but still feel secluded.

Families will find the larger villas, often with multiple rooms, suitable for their needs. These are typically set back slightly from the most direct beachfront but still offer easy access to the beach and resort amenities like the swimming pool.
When is the best time to go to Bokissa Island?
