Wonderful resort with huge connecting pools, a swim up bar, spa and excellent restaurant. Our room is clean and very spacious with two bedrooms, a large living room, full open-style kitchen and 2 bathrooms. It also has a nice outside space with seating in the shade and our suite overlooks one end of the pool. The open air restaurant is casual but nice. The service is excellent and the food delicious. We have enjoyed it several times for breakfast buffet, lunch and dinner. The breakfast buffet has everything you’d want. Lunch was delicious. We had wonderful salmon avocado bowls, fried chicken and salad with grilled chicken…. Daniela, the Manager and Clara are genuinely friendly and very professional. I am in the hotel business (ownership) and know great people when I see them. The hotel is located a short 5 to 10 minute walk to the beach and 10 minute drive to the marina will take you out on the reef for snorkeling and diving. We liked Wavelength Reef Cruises best.

Stayed 5nights here and wish we could have stayed longer! We truly relaxed and had such an amazing time enjoying the pool, buffet breakfast each day, onsite restaurant and bar and the day spa. Staff were friendly and very helpful. The resort was quiet and we couldn't hear a noise outside when we were in our room. Bed was very comfortable, ensuring we slept perfectly each night. Would highly recommend staying here whether a couple or family.

We loved our stay at the resort. Beautiful views, wonderful staff especially Maria at reception she was very welcoming, helpful and friendly also Daniella’s service at the restaurant was excellent and super nice.
The pool is amazing and so beautiful but unfortunately 95% of pool lights not working dark at night. I guess the maintenance team need to do more to keep lights on. Bbq at penthouse not working.
We will be again for sure overall the place is amazing.

Lovely position and facilities. Nice to have a lazy river passing your room, join this to arrive at the large lagoon pool. The apartments are spacious with all utensils etc provided.
The only downside was that we found that it wasn't properly cleaned, finding food remnants under the beds.

Best holiday ever!! Super relaxing, beautiful resort. We felt like we could stay forever.
Our room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The property is well laid out to provide privacy. The private pool was my haven every day
We enjoyed a delightful dinner at Aluco of steaks and sorbet.
Thank you for a wonderful stay.

I was extremely disappointed with my stay at the Sea Temple. From the moment I arrived, it was clear this hotel is not deserving of its so-called 5-star status. I was “upgraded” to a room with an outdoor bath—nice in theory, but the bath didn’t even work.

The lack of basic amenities was astonishing. No minibar, no readily available towels (poolside towels are non-existent unless you trek through the restaurant to get one), and heaven forbid you need more than one towel if you’re travelling with kids. When I asked for a bottle of water at checkout, the manager informed me that water is only provided on arrival. I was further shocked when I tried to buy water from the bar, only to be told they don’t sell it and the only water they have is the same “free” water given at check-in. How is this a luxury hotel if they can’t even provide or sell water?

The buffet was another letdown. For the price, it’s nothing more than a basic continental breakfast with the option of eggs. Certainly not what you’d expect from a 5-star resort. The rooms are tiny and tired, with absolutely no sense of luxury.

Yes, the pool is nice—but pools like this are a dime a dozen. There are better, more spacious options in countless other destinations. For the money spent here, you’re far better off flying to Bali or Thailand, where actual luxury and value for money go hand in hand.

At best, this is a mediocre 3-star resort charging 5-star prices. Save yourself the disappointment and look elsewhere.

Honestly loved every second of it. The BEST pool. One day we accidentally spent 5 hours…just going around and around the lagoon loop. Bring your pool noodle. Stayed 4 nights and I miss it so much 😓
