Staff was very helpful on our way there and back, however whilst we were on the resort, especially those by the pool were slightly absent minded. Having said that, it’s been a great experience with tastefully designed interior in the room / villa and I’d go again for a quiet relaxing retreat.

Nice facilities!

The facilities are amazing! What made me happy, was to see that the hotel and employes take care of the dogs of the island. I hope they have a program to castrate the female, so they keep healthy. It was joyfull to have them with us! Amazing pool, restaurant and the rooms are also super cosy with nice furniture.

Very happy with our stay would absolutely recommend. The boat pick up situation was a little confusing as the tent they had indicated as theirs seemed to be occupied by a family spending the day at the beach… but when we returned it seemed like it was a specific tent for makani. Many people on the beach will ask you where you are going to try and get you in their boat… the makani crew all work makani shirts - we had them show us their pick up list so we could be certain it was the right boat. Beyond that the room was incredible the private pool deck fantastic, staff very lovely and helpful and all common areas were gorgeous. Food was also really good and a la carte breakfast included was delicious. Very happy we chose to spend the last few days of our trip here.

Overall, it’s a beautiful property. Within a couple hours of arriving, we were already considering extending our stay… that is, until we took a shower. One min of scalding water followed by 5 mins of cold, rinse and repeat (no pun intended). Maintenance just said that’s the way it is. On the plus side, Alejandro (a manager I believe) was very proactive in offering to compensate us by offering us spa treatments. Overall we enjoyed our stay- and had the shower worked properly, we would have really enjoyed it. It’s just if you’re paying $450+ a night for a room, a shower works properly is a must.

Disliked: Staff & service
The resort is beautifully made and has a great pool area as well as restaurants. Also the rooms are spacious and luxurious. However, the service has a lot of potential for improvement. Waiters forget your order and/or bring them twice. Every order takes 30-60min (even though there were barely any people sometimes) and the staff seems very relaxed and are talking with each other. We were locked out of our room for 3h and we received no apology for the long wait. The wifi also didn't work very well and had long outages. Furthermore, after denying them a tip because of the bad service some waiters completely ignored us until we told the reception and management.
