Tribes Overall: "We loved the whole trip. Its not for those seeking a relaxed, lazy holiday. It is for those seeking the refreshment of the different and reminds us how lucky we are."
Tribes Service: "Helpful and professional without fuss."
Guides: "We had three guides. Two were excellent one less good. He was unwell and his command of English was not as good as the other two."
Social & Environmental Responsibility: "Average"
Accommodation
We had our one unfortunate experience here. The dovet's were, to be honest, filthy under the clean sheets. We asked for them to be changed. The request was ignored.
Lovely hotel. In an ideal world we would have like the option of lunch on the second day rather than dinner the night we arrived.
Susan was ill at this hotel. They were most accommodating and managed to give us the room for an extra night which greatly eased her discomfort. I went to the island alone.
Very comfortable hotel in a style we like. That is not all glass and steel. The staff were helpful and friendly. Nice touch that bottled water was available on the corridor.
The home was far less basic than we had been told. The bed had a mattress and there was a flush lavatory. With or without these facilities the experience was what mattered. The 4 year old son in my family was called Beckham. I've still not recovered from that and his father said that any second son would be called Peres!
