I was there a couple of months ago and they claimed that Orientale was fully booked up but I insisted that it was a special occasion and we would love to eat there. The restaurant was 50% empty once we got there for a 8pm table and stayed that way all night.

BTW we wanted to try out both the Garden bungalow and a OW Villa. Preferred the bungalow as they gave us a villa at the end which got a fair amount of wind from the open sea and the swimming pool never got any sunlight. The water was freezing and we were even colder once we got out as the winds hit you. We used the pool in the OWB twice whereas the Garden Villa one we used all day.

If anyone is going there do ask for a Villa facing the inner lagoon and not towards the sea as these get less sun. I think the villa's to the left as soon should be ok though.
