Practical

Coordinate from OpenStreetMap. Phone +689 40 93 11 11. Pricey; in 2011 wifi was for guests only, and bikes could be rented. In 2019 the resort asked boats anchored in front of it to move because they blocked the view, so anchor to one side. Top Dive operates from the resort, with pick-up from its pontoon.

Best for

Sunset drink at the overwater bar
