I recently stayed at this resort in Raja Ampat and found it to be a mixed experience. On the positive side, the resort features a stunning house reef and spacious rooms, and the staff made a commendable effort, especially during the holiday season. However, the service inconsistencies and some maintenance issues in the rooms affected my overall enjoyment.

The location is beautiful, but the resort itself falls short of expectations, making it hard to justify the cost.
