We had an amazing family vacation here! 🌴 This place is absolutely perfect for families with kids — peaceful, clean, and super kid-friendly. The public pool is refreshing, and the separate kids’ pool is awesome — our little ones had a blast! 💦 The food buffet was also fantastic with a wide variety of dishes to choose from, something for everyone, even picky eaters. Highly recommended for families looking for a relaxing and fun getaway! 👨👩👧👦🍽️🏖️

We had a wonderful stay, and a big part of that was thanks to Bala! He consistently went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and comfortable. His service was exceptional, friendly, professional, and always with a smile. Not only that, but his cocktails and coffee were absolutely top notch! You can tell he takes real pride in what he does, and it made such a difference in our experience. Thank you for helping make our stay so enjoyable!
The staff at Kandooma is very welcoming and everyone goes out of their way to make your stay a memorable one. The island is kept very clean with all the bungalows in immaculate condition. We did enjoy the buffet and also the drinks at the bar. There is plenty of free activities and also a well equipped gym. You don’t have to snorkel far to see amazing sea life.
