Our Reviews
Honest opinions, not brochure copy.
Every property on this site has been visited by one of us, and written up by the person who stayed there. That is why the write-ups sometimes disagree with each other, and occasionally with the brochure.
Our detailed reviews are meant to be genuinely useful tools for potential travellers, with our personal opinions of what we feel are the strengths, weaknesses and individual characters of each property. Every profile also carries our own scores out of 10 across categories like Luxury & Style, Setting, Activities, Chill-Out Factor and Distance to Beach, so you can weigh one island hideaway against another on the things that actually matter.

Our Consultants
Real People, Real Advice
We’re real people who are able to give you straight, unbiased advice to find the perfect island hotel to match your needs and budget. Those big faceless automated booking engines: sure, they’ll indicate a price, but will they be able to give you the useful advice you need to ensure that you choose the property that’s right for your specific needs? In a word, no.
Or if you go through to the hotel directly, well of course they’re always going to talk up their own property as being the perfect choice for you. But it may well be that there’s another lodge, or another island entirely, better suited to your specific needs and wants. Which is where we come in.
Our consultants will give you their impartial, forthright advice and opinions as to which properties they believe are best suited to your needs, and will give YOU the best possible island escape.
