"Eight cottages set on the prettiest stretch of sand on the island. Entertainment here is of your own making—bring a book and settle back with a cold Belikin beer."

"The hotel is close to the airport and has clean, but uninspiring rooms with TV, air-con and colorful local artwork. Most rooms have beach-facing porches with hammocks.
