“(Poche) luci e ( molte ) ombre....”
The only bright spot on the whole island is Bikini Beach with its white sand, clear lagoon, and plenty of free loungers and umbrellas, though there are no fish nearby; they did set up a water purification plant 50 m away and phone repeaters at 150 m, which is a pity. The back of the island is covered in all kinds of trash, a common problem on other islands. The guest house itself was disappointing despite attempts at friendliness: it’s dated, many things don’t work or only work after complaints, and we had to ask after five days to change the towels. The higher price compared to other guest houses isn’t justified; breakfast is acceptable but served on a plastic table on the open sand. The TV finally worked after a complaint and shows Rai, the fridge works, the wardrobe has four crooked hangers, the hairdryer is broken. Half the bathroom is just a shower without a curtain or shelf, so everything gets wet, including the toilet paper (you walk barefoot into the guest house and don’t flush the paper, and if you’re on the upper floor the stairs are very steep). I can’t say much about the excursions; we didn’t eat at the hotel in the evenings or lunches and no one offered us a package, though I heard others complain about the short duration despite the not‑cheap costs. I’m sorry but I can’t be more positive. I didn’t see a beautiful sunset in 10 days, nor did I see stars at night. The sea is really nice but only at Bikini Beach. The place needs to collect hundreds of plastic bottles that are littered everywhere. It’s not just a problem of the guest house, but they should manage the overall decor, not just organize excursions.
