I am curious to find out what you thought of the facilities at the resort (main pool(s), gym, spa, restaurants) as well as the overall beauty of the island.
I am curious about the overwater villas at this resort as they seem to be completely separated from the island itself (a la Soneva Gili). Did you have a chance to look at any of those and, if so, what were your impressions?
For whatever reason, a lot of the design at Jumeriah properties just unimpressive. They may look better in-person.
