“This resort's private island location ensures immediate access to sublime snorkeling-arguably some of the best on offer. I think it's a prime spot for aquatic exploration, and its underwater post office adds a touch of novelty. While some facilities show cyclone damage, the dedicated staff keeps the essentials running.”
