This all-inclusive resort for the backpacker set envisions itself as a place to practise the art of doing nothing. Rates include three daily meals, snorkelling gear, yoga (in high season) and transport to/from the main harbour. The 'dorm' is just a mattress on an open-air platform, but the bungalows are spacious and have sea views. Expect cold bucket showers as there's no running water.
