The Edgewater Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful views from a comfortable room, wonderful staff, and an excellent menu!"

Vaniva's Villa nestled in a tropical garden oasis.

10/10 Excellent

"Highly recommend Vaniva's Villa for large groups! The entire home is spacious! My family absolutely loved our stay here - we enjoyed the pool and deck seated area. BONUS! We watched our sisters' flight land from the deck!! The two downstairs rooms are air conditioned. There are portable fans available upstairs, however the breeze was cool when windows were left open. We will definitely book again when travelling in a large group at Vaniva's Villa!"
