"Property has a huge footprint but is spacious. And the position is perfect. I could hear the waves from my room, views are spectacular. Staff are all excellent - well trained, attentive, but not pushy. Breakfast was amazing. Private beach is nice for snorkeling, public beach is sandy and shallow. Close to Lassi for restaurants and bars. All in all, couldn't be much better!"

"We loved the hotel! Its location and views are absolutely to die for. I could have spent our whole trip in the pool just taking in the views and enjoying the serenity. The staff were amazing. We did make one mistake , when you check in they offer you half board at 20 euros a person for a 3 course dinner but you have to do it for your entire stay. We opted not to and ate at several other restaurants which did not have the views , the service , the ambience or the quality of the food at the odyssey. So don’t make the same mistake we did!!"
