8. The location of the resort is perfect - just out of the main shopping/dining area (far enough to feel away from the hype, close enough to be able to get there easily on a free shuttle basically wheneveryou want)- located on a great spot for snorkelling (beware in the winter it gets a little rough the water sometimes)- beautiful sea turtles are swimming next to the dining/bar area which is built our onto the waterThe activities desk was so so helpful and friendly - they completely organised us with transport and activities and a great map.
