My stay at KolaBeach Resort was truly wonderful! The spacious rooms, with breathtaking views, made it feel like a little paradise. The dining experience was exceptional with delicious meals, although I'd suggest adding a few more options to the menu. The location is peaceful and secluded, perfect for a relaxing getaway. However, the service could use some improvement as there were a few hiccups during my stay.

My stay at this resort was quite a mixed bag. While the ambiance was beautiful and the place was wonderfully relaxing, I encountered several issues that made my experience less enjoyable. The location was peaceful and the private beach was a highlight, but the dining options were quite limited, which was disappointing. Overall, it has potential but needs some improvements in service and dining variety.
