Moonlight Resort

The Southern Islands


Staying at this place will make you feel like one cool alien. The white, dome-shaped bungalows look like mysterious igloos stolen from the moon, but they are sumptuous, air-conditioned and immaculate. Its Blue Moon restaurant likewise sits beneath a giant blue dome with shimmery-looking panels. There are also a couple of pools and a cocktail bar.
