We booked 5 nights at Seabreeze and benefitted from the bonus extras, which included transfers and a starter selection of beverages in our minibar (generous enough that we didn’t finish them all). Our villa was on a headland and had water views on 3 sides, plus its own little garden with plunge pool (unheated). It was very private and a lovely place to spend a relaxing break, which was exactly what we wanted. The room was beautifully presented with a sprinkling of leaves and flowers on the bed and in the bathroom.
The setting of the resort is picturesque, with the pretty cove, lagoon, palm trees and tropical gardens providing a perfect paradise. I didn't swim in the unheated pool or the sea (too cold, I'm a wimp) but my water-loving husband was in his element and took full advantage of both.
Having realised that the location was quite remote and that there were no nearby restaurants (we didn’t hire a car), we decided to book the meal plan. Food and service in the restaurant were excellent. With the same menu for lunch and dinner, the choice could be a little limited if staying for a longer time. But there's a daily blackboard special to add a bit of variety, and wood-fired pizzas on Sundays.
We experienced a scary extreme overnight weather event on our last night, which took out power lines and left widespread debris and destruction. Owner Wendy said it was one of the worst storms she’d seen in all her years at Seabreeze. Nevertheless, a backup generator kept the air conditioning running through the night, and breakfast was served as usual next morning despite chef having to cook (on gas) without lights. We thought that was pretty impressive.
Staff were friendly and attentive, even gathering to sing us a spontaneous farewell song on our day of departure – an unexpected gesture that left me struggling to hold back tears! Especially since the post-storm clean-up was well under way and all hands were on deck to restore Seabreeze to normality. We loved our stay and feel so grateful to everyone who made it special.
