"We had an absolutely amazing stay at Ycona Luxury Resort. From the moment we arrived, everything was flawless. The resort is incredibly clean, beautifully maintained, and every space feels fresh, luxurious, and peaceful. Our villa was spotless and thoughtfully prepared, and you can truly tell they take pride in maintaining the highest standards. The service was impeccable. Every staff member was warm, professional, and attentive, always making sure we were comfortable and taken care of. They paid attention to every detail and made us feel genuinely welcomed throughout our entire stay. This was a once in a lifetime luxury experience for my husband and me during our honeymoon. The atmosphere was serene, exclusive, and truly special. Everything from the surroundings to the hospitality exceeded our expectations. We are so grateful for the unforgettable memories we created here and would highly recommend Ycona Luxury Resort to anyone looking for a true luxury experience and exceptional service."

"Some travelers forget they are visiting a foreign country and overlook local conditions, policies, & environment. Many common complaints can be avoided by reading details planning ahead, and communicating clearly. I believe in forming my own experience —and I’m so glad I did. My experience was a 10,000/10. The staff and service were exceptional from start to finish. Everyone was professional, patient, and made me feel comfortable throughout my stay. Juma, the Front Office Manager, arranged my round-trip airport transfer with Emanuel who shared local history along the way. Juma clearly explained my package and handled a small misunderstanding on my end with patience and helpful solutions. Consolata, the receptionist, welcomed me warmly and made me feel at home immediately. I arrived early, and she personally showed me around the property while sharing its history, which I truly appreciated. Ramso, my butler, was outstanding—attentive, calm, and genuinely caring. When I had a room issue (my mistake), he went above and beyond to ensure my comfort, moving me to a room that exceeded expectations. I would absolutely request him again! Chef Mohammed delivered excellent meals from breakfast to dinner. The food was fresh, authentic, healthy, and flavorful, and his passion truly shows. Overall, I loved the scenery, privacy, cleanliness, safety, and peaceful atmosphere. Fruit & Spice is perfect for relaxation and exceptional service. I highly recommend this resort. — LissaKayy "

"Great experience and good times. Great service and people ate very kind"

"We had a wonderful stay at this property. It was beautiful, peaceful, and perfectly located within walking distance of all the major spots. The hotel also offers a trolley service to the beach, and for other destinations, transportation is available for a small fee, which was very convenient. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. I appreciated the laundry service, enjoyed spending time by the pool, and felt well taken care of throughout my stay. Upon arrival, we were welcomed with a DJ, which created a great first impression and set the tone for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation. I would absolutely recommend this property and would happily stay here ag"
