The beach and water is clean. There are a lot of water activities being offered. We enjoyed our day tour here. It’s just that there are monkeys who went into the cabanas and grabbed food/personal belongings, it’s kinda scary.

Although it's not our first time, my parents, relatives, and friends all love the close encounter with the tiger and the lion. The caretaker educates us about the names, ages, characteristics, and habitats of tigers and lions. Of course, they learned more unexpected information. Btw my father really enjoys feeding the crocodile.

Staff are always great, courteous and attentive at all times. Shout out to Edwin and Mica at the Reef resto for always serving with a smile. Deluxe Rooms are spacious, beds and pillows are comfy. Bathroom running water is A-ok too.
