We awoke to bright sunshine which seeped in around the blinds on the multitude of windows in our cottage. This place is pretty spectacular – beautiful sea views, lots of space, bright colors. It is a fully furnished cottage with a kitchen, sitting room, oversized bathroom, and large deck. Add lots of privacy, a personal jacuzzi and a two person hammock and you have a little bit of heaven. The down side to all that privacy is that we are miles from the rest of the rest of the resort. We had to wander over by the beach for breakfast which was lovely. Lots of stuff marked gluten free – including a basket of GF bread. We streaked out some beach chairs under a tree at the beach and we were set for the day. Our day consisted of various combinations of popping into the pool with the swim up bar, wandering into the sea, reading a bit, grabbing a bite at the beach cafe, enjoying a blended drink or two, and a snorkeling trip shortened by choppy seas and poor visibility.

An easy evening dip in the jacuzzi before the grand gala dinner closed off the night. It would have been absolutely perfect but for two small things: the wine waiters seemed unable to see our table and a passing sprinkle turned into a torrential downpour. We solved both annoyances by retiring to our cottage where our well stocked bar had lots of wine. Now to rest up for tomorrow.
