Ninety seconds on Jungle Bay
Stay here for the yoga, the spa and the snorkelling in the marine reserve straight below the bungalows. Every room is on a hillside above the sea, so expect a walk uphill to dinner.
Meal hours are fixed and the kitchen is the only one on the property, so the day runs around breakfast, lunch and dinner. Other restaurants are ten to twenty minutes away in the villages. The pools sit above the sea, one of them an infinity pool looking south to Scotts Head.
