Camilla Resort

We stayed at Camilla for 6 weeks in one of their villas and could not be happier. The staff are so helpful, welcoming, and did everything they could to make our stay enjoyable. The villas we stayed in were not by the beach. Camilla has 2 locations, one by the beach and one 300m inland. The inland location we had was perfect, as this meant we were central on the island and close to everything but not in the hustle and bustle (not that there is too much of that on the island). 2 minute ride to the north and east of the island, 5 minute ride to the south and west of the island. Camilla offer free bikes which makes exploring the island so easy. Our villa had a beautiful private pool and deck, outside kitchen, outside bathroom and a king sized bed. The bed was comfortable and an actual king (not 2 singles pushed together like some places do). The air conditioning was great too, very cooling. The restaurant is located at the beach location and serves a beautiful breakfast each morning. The breakfast choices were great and were always tasty. Even though it’s at the beachside location, getting there is a simple 2 minute bike ride or a 5 minute stroll. We also found the restaurant to be the best place for sunset. This might change throughout the year, but April/May while we were there, this was the perfect place. To address some of the negative reviews I have read: ‘Salt water from the showers’ – yes the water is slightly salty but it isn’t as though you are showering in seawater. The water is ground water and you are on a small sand island, hence the slight saltiness. ‘Quality of bikes’ – the bikes are not the newest nor the best quality, however they are free! If you want a better one you can hire one elsewhere. We used them for 6 weeks and were more than happy getting to and from places on them. Thank you to Agung, Rin, Mario, Jordi and the entire team there, we look forward to coming back one day!

We tried the restaurant. Nice place but the portions for food were tiny. We had salmon tartare. 95% rice 5% salmon. To avoid if you are hungry. They attract you with fresh fish stand but at the end the promise is deceptive...

Charme local, rien de plus situé au bord de mer, mais pas au bord de plage, un peu déçu par rapport aux photos qui montrait transat fauteuil, etc. devant le restaurant finalement il n'y a que des gravats et des cailloux il faudra aller plus loin pour aller se baigner où ça a été aménagé Chambre standard local avec une climatisation qui ne fonctionne pas bien et vu que la chaleur ne descend jamais en dessous de 28, la nuit c'était très moyen pour dormir. Le restaurant est excellent du petit déjeuner au repas au jus de fruits locaux naturel à des prix très abordables la salle de bain est ouvert est un vrai plus qu'on rencontre pas souvent , le tout est vieillissant, pas très bien entretenu à tous les niveaux. C'est dommage. Et la surprise nous ne prenons pas la carte bleue, il faudra aller retirer de l'argent vraiment très moyen

Punti di forza: personale cordiale e simpatico, posizione top soprattutto per i tramonti, aperitivo e cena buonissimi (stra consigliato il loro sushi) con musica dal vivo, bungalow ampio con jacuzzi privata. Punti deboli: un po’ di disorganizzazione nel porta le pietanze, acqua del bagno salata, spesso fredda e spesso non c’era proprio. Nel complesso però esperienza stupenda
