We stayed at the resort so ate here several times over the week. Everything we got was pretty good. Would recommend the BLAT burger and the prawn pizza.

Best steak on the island, others on our table had tuna steak and a chicken salad. Everyone was impressed with the meals and service was great. The staff are friendly and professional. Would definitely go back. You need to book as itâs a small resort and caters first to guests staying with them.

I had the pizza which was far too much cheese and soft base like those at the supermarket. Made both my partner and I feel sick. Far better places to eat lunch

Popular with tourists as they serve the usual euro style cooked breakfasts along with local touches as well. We had 2 x coconut pancakes with banana, bacon and maple syrup - really lovely. Though thick pancakes, not the usual thin sort, lovely and crunchy on the outside, which was rather delicious. Also the spicy mince on toast w bacon n egg on top was well worthy for my man, very tasty and filling he said.Well worth a stop, once or twice!
