Review by hotel critic
My week at Ao Marama Retreat was nothing short of extraordinary, and it has undoubtedly set a new standard for all my future stays. The serene atmosphere, rooted in its former life as a Buddhist Centre, offered a peaceful escape that was perfectly complemented by stunning views of the native bush and sea. I was particularly impressed by the well-equipped communal kitchen, which provided an inviting space for us to cook and enjoy meals while basking in the beautiful surroundings, and the private sitting area on our terrace allowed us to unwind and soak in the tranquil environment. Everything was impeccably clean and well-maintained, making our experience not just relaxing but genuinely rejuvenating; I left feeling revitalised and eager to return.
