My experience at The Cove was mixed. The serene location by the beach was perfect for a relaxing getaway, but the accommodation had its shortcomings. While I enjoyed the superb food and friendly staff, I found the bamboo bungalow lacking in cleanliness and comfort, making it hard to sleep. Overall, it's a stunning spot for a few days of quiet, but be prepared for some inconvenience.

During my stay at The Cove, I appreciated the stunning views and the nice staff, but the overall experience was disappointing. The isolation made it challenging to enjoy my time, especially with limited dining options and connectivity issues.

Dining at the resort was less than ideal. The food quality was mediocre, with expensive prices compared to local options. There were limited vegetarian choices, and I found the portions smaller than expected. It was disappointing being forced to eat on-site without alternatives.

The facilities included activities like kayaking and snorkeling, which were nice perks. However, the condition of the beach was not as expected, with many sharp rocks and little space for relaxing. Overall, I felt the hotel was not fully utilizing its potential.
