The location is idyllic, our room offered a fantastic view of the sea and surrounding hills. Spacious room, with extras to support our stay. Staff were incredibly helpful. The five pools catered for all guests, Pomelo being our favourite retreat! The stay exceeded our expectations on all levels.

I had an absolutely amazing stay at the Mandarava. The entire property is beautiful and incredibly well maintained. Everything was spotless, from the rooms to the pool area. The pool itself was extremely clean and inviting, and you can tell the staff takes great pride in keeping the whole resort in perfect condition. The food available on the resort was outstanding, with every meal exceeding expectations. The spa was also amazing and provided such a relaxing experience. Everyone on staff was super nice, attentive, and professional. The service was truly fantastic, and they consistently made sure we were taken care of throughout our stay. Overall, it was an incredible experience, and I would highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a wonderful, relaxing getaway.

Everything about this property was spectacular. The staff was so kind and so friendly. The property itself is absolutely beautiful. The room was completely clean, spacious and lovely. Every single person that we came in contact with was helpful and friendly. Overall, it was the nicest hotel we have ever stayed in. I could not recommend it more highly.
