My stay at Makai Club was a mixed bag. The beautiful landscaping and peaceful atmosphere were highlights, and the clean and comfortable unit made for a pleasant experience. However, my excitement was dampened by issues with pests and unexpected fees that really took away from the enjoyment.

I had a lovely experience at this resort! The property is beautifully maintained, with unique wildlife adding a charming touch. The spacious cottage provided plenty of room for our family, and the proximity to local shops and dining options was a big plus. However, the lack of air conditioning in the cottages made it a bit warm during the day, and the shower had low water pressure. Overall, it was a delightful stay, especially given its value for money.

I had a great time at the resort, especially enjoying the peaceful atmosphere and excellent activities available. The spacious accommodations were perfect for our family, and the access to complimentary amenities like bikes added extra value to our stay. However, while the facilities were well-maintained, some of the furnishings in our suite felt a bit dated.
