The lodge needs a new manager cos the place was nice but it needs some changes like - finds out how to get out the sea plants from the beach and so the beach will be nice but now it's difficult and smells like someone is dying there- and the mosquitoes will disappear no one can swim there

The staff were so welcoming and ready to go an extra mile. Eddie, owner, was humble and professional when addressing any concerns. Overall, a great experience and will surely revisit in future.

“Amazing! I highly recommend Amber Lodge!”
The property is amazing. There are birds nests all over, the pool has cool water and the view over the bay is breathtaking. The property manager, Ali, but also all the staff( Clarice, Eddiec the Chef ) were so warm and they attended to our every need. It was like a family away from home. The room were cleaned every day and ther sprayed with insecticides for the mosquitos every evening. The food at the restaurant was simple and very very well cooked, especially the fish and seafood! I loved our stay there and we will returned for sure!
