Leigh McCallum Review of Sofitel Marara

Absolutely beautiful place! Everyone is super friendly and happy. The little beach huts were just so precious. I loved the showers- very spacious and good water pressure. The bed was heavenly. One of the best sleeps I have had. If it wasn't such a beautiful destination I would have curled up there the entire time.
We also saw the show the one night and it was out of this world. Definitely a must if you come to this side of the world. It's mind blowing the way they can move their bodies. The traditional food cooked that night was also excellent. Seconds were a definite.
The hotel offered free shuttles to the islands restaurants in the evening for dinner which is great if you are adventurous with cuisines.
We also got a boat trip to the private island which is also postcard perfect. And they have a really cute little beach set up.
The only let down was the breakfast every morning. It would run out and no one was really there to replenish. Probably due to under staffing with the renovations that are ungoing. The manager received the negative comments well and immediately looked into the reasons behind the problem. He was extremely approachable and apologetic.
All in all though. It was a phenomenal little peace of paradise. I would definitely come back. Looking forward to seeing all the progress with the renovations
