Wonderful Spa Experience

I had an amazing time at the spa where the therapist provided really good treatment. On arrival, I received a free 15-minute voucher, which I combined with a longer treatment, making it even more rejuvenating. It left me feeling completely relaxed and relaxed, a great way to start the day!

Stunning Hideaway Villas

The villas here are beautifully designed with open-air bathrooms that offer a unique experience. I loved the spaciousness and the privacy they provide, enhancing my stay. The Karkasay villa had an unobstructed ocean view that was amazing every morning when I opened the curtains.

Delicious Breakfasts!

The breakfast provided was wonderful, especially the perfectly cooked poached eggs and the fresh tropical fruit platters. Although there were minor inconsistencies, on the whole, it was a great way to start my morning before heading out to explore.

Exciting Water Activities

I thoroughly enjoyed the daily organized snorkeling trips that the resort offered. They made it easy for beginners like me to explore the underwater beauty without worry. The complimentary kayaks available were another highlight, though I wished for more time to paddle around the stunning lagoon.

Overall, I had a pleasant stay at this resort. The location is simply amazing, providing both tranquillity and easy access to adventure. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, highlighting some luxurious touches, but there’s room for improvement in the dining options. While the amenities are nice and the pool offers stunning views, certain aspects of housekeeping and menu variety could be enhanced for a more seamless experience.

My stay at Cerf Island Resort was a mixed bag. The highlight was definitely the stunning beach wedding we had, which was beautifully organized by the resort. The staff, especially Prakash, was incredibly helpful and made us feel at home. On the downside, some facilities left much to be desired, particularly the dining experience and some of the amenities, which felt lacking for a 4-star establishment.

Cerf Island Resort is a hidden gem where I enjoyed a beautiful beach wedding and relaxing stay. The surroundings were incredibly calming and the rooms were spacious and comfortable. However, my dining experience fell short due to food quality issues, which is disappointing for a place that promotes fine dining. The service was hit or miss; while some staff were amazing, certain aspects left much to be desired.
