Overall, my friend and I had a good holiday, although it did start off a bit badly with our room with twin beds not being ready until 6.30 pm, when we had arrived at 4.30 pm. As we had booked at the last minute, we were also unable to get one of the beach view villas, which appeared to be in better condition than our garden view villa, and which were of course more convenient for snorkeling. At the house reef beyond the stone wall around the island, we were able to see different fishes, and even sharks and a hawksbill turtle, although the corals were a bit bleached. This bleaching was also apparent at excursions to see mantas and turtles. I hope to see more efforts at the rebuilding of house reefs, as well as worldwide efforts to cut down temperature rise and deleterious climate change.
