Best Pool on Talipanan Beach

I stayed here with my wife and two kids, and the pool was absolutely fantastic! It's the best pool in the area and perfect for families. The kids had a wonderful time splashing around, and the whole area was well-maintained. It's definitely a highlight of our stay.

We had an amazing week at this resort! The pool is definitely the star of the show, and the beach is a lovely bonus for families. The staff, particularly the Italian owners, are incredibly helpful when it comes to local watersports. However, the dining experience wasn't as great as I had hoped, especially when it came to breakfast. Overall, it’s a fantastic family-friendly place, and I can't wait to return!
