Very quiet secluded place. It's unique steep climb to the top is so worth it for the awesome view!! Rooms with separate personal cabanas makes its so perfect for some 'alone' time

Our 4th visit
Posted 10 Dec 2019 on HotelsWe have stayed Al Faro 4 times now and always found it to be excellent in every way. The staff are all extremely friendly, welcoming and efficient. The hilltop position is stunning and the pool fabulous. Food is always very good and varied. Being picked up and dropped off by speedboat always makes it special too. Rooms are very comfortable and have stunning views.

Great for a getaway
Posted 23 May 2019 on HotelsWe spent 3 days first in Al Faro then 3 days in the town and were suprised by the stark contrast between the two. The former can be a little quiet, if you seeking to relax and admire the beautiful views, but can be too boring as you are isolated. The latter is chaotic and dirty but you have more access to services and attractions in the area, bar/ restaurants, bank, boats, hot spring etc.

Lovely setting
Posted 17 May 2019 on HotelsGreat range of excursions available. Really enjoyed the snorkelling. Views of sunset are unsurpassable.
Food cooked well. Friendly and helpful staff.
Could do with slightly more communal space around the pool/bar/restaurant if large groups staying, but veranda by bungalow helps make up for that.
Very popular location with plenty of people choosing to spend an evening there even if they’re not residents.

Beautiful scenery, friendly staff, few amentities
Posted 15 Apr 2019 on HotelsMy husband and I visited Al Faro for one weekend. The island was beautiful and the staff were friendly and accommodating but there were fewer amenities than we expected: WiFi was only turned on from 6 am to 10 pm and available only in the dining area, no air conditioning, no hot water, and no conditioner (shampoo only). When the WiFi was on, we still had trouble connecting. Overall, it was a nice, relaxing weekend but we would have enjoyed it more if we knew what to expect.
Also, expect to spend a lot of money once you do arrive at the hotel - you can visit nearby islands during the day but it cost about $40 a trip, exclusive of island fees and meals. There isn't anything walkable around the hotel either so the only food option was at the hotel. It's also useful to know that you can settle your bill with credit card but they add a 3% fee.

Beautiful hotel with stunning views. Room with separate terrace with day beds and hammock was brilliant. Great food and staff. Lovely pool and massage area. Nothing we didn’t like but it would be good to have some flat sun beds around as well as the shaped ones? Would also have been nice if the bar could have stayed open later.
