... but overall it’s a fun place.
Still searching out a ray and octopus!
And yes, the popsicles/ice cream don’t always arrive at 1 and 4, just be patient and they will come!
Sorry to hear that about your wife. We also ate in Fish on Thursday night and had no issues. Wonderful view of the sharks, until the rain pushed us inside.
We have had most luck with snorkelling outside our villa (ocean facing overwater) - seen 3 sharks and my girlfriend has seen a turtle. We snorkelled the other side of Fish though so will try around there again. Thanks for the tip!
This is a great resort and I agree with earlier reviews. Two things to add:
1. The doctor: His office is behind the watersports shop. Appointments and medicine are complimentary. My girlfriend had a cold and was able to get some decongestants.
2. Laundry: They offer one bag one price of $79++, still expensive, but better than the normal itemised laundry service at high end hotels. Not sure how many use this given the staff got very confused repeatedly when we dropped it off, but got everything back later the same day.
