Our stay had its ups and downs. The natural beauty of the hotel is truly breathtaking, but the family bungalow didn't meet our expectations. While the staff was well-meaning, the service lacked attention to families. The location is dreamy, but the price made us hope for more comfort and better dining options.

The bungalow we stayed in suffered from poor ventilation and lacked air conditioning. This made our nights uncomfortable, especially given the high price we paid.

While the scenery was enchanting, the facilities left much to be desired, especially for families. The mosquito netting was inadequate, which made our stay uncomfortable.

Ninamu is a hidden gem that offers a truly unique experience on a beautiful private island. The relaxed atmosphere and personalized care from the hosts create a warm and welcoming vibe. While the bungalows are intriguing and in harmony with nature, they might not be for everyone since they lack conventional amenities. Dining is fantastic with an emphasis on fresh fish, but be prepared for long gaps between meals. Overall, it’s a paradise for those looking for adventure and tranquility, but it's not ideal for travelers wanting a standard hotel experience.

Staying at Ninamu was truly a dream come true! The unique bungalows offered stunning views and a comfortable atmosphere.

The culinary experience is exceptional, thanks to Chef Cheffy, who creates amazing dishes. However, the dining options for meats are quite limited, and some snorkeling gear could use an upgrade.
