Reef Garden has been a lovely experience with excellent food, clean and pleasant rooms with all required amenities. The highlight of this property is its fantastic beach with white sand, and an incredible array of marine life. This is the perfect destination for snorkeling and exploring the colourful and mesmerising treasures of the sea. Kids will absolutely love all these aspects including the large kiddies pool.The service was warm and friendly and overall it was a satisfying and comfortable experience. Will definitely come back.
