    Reef 28 is the place to go!

    Heading to Reef 28 for our honeymoon was the best decision ever! The staff were so friendly and went above and beyond on numerous occasions to make our stay special. The highlight were the breakfasts in Cachito, the food was delicious and the staff were amazing, always friendly and interested in what we were doing, they even provided a special treat to help celebrate our honeymoon. The pool at the top was a wonderful place to relax too. We will be back!
