United KingdomOur stay at Palambak Resort was an unforgettable experience and we loved every moment of it. We were the only people on the island with two staff members, who made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We booked the bungalow for 4 nights and I was a bit worried that I'll get bored, but there were plenty of things to do - we kayaked around the island, walked around it, we watched turtles, crabs, passing birds and sunsets and sunrises. We read, slept and chilled and played games which were free to borrow from the reception. We also went on an island hopping tour, which is more of a snorkeling tour, and saw lots of beautiful fishes (bring SPF 50 sunscreen or wear shorts and long sleeves when snorkeling - we burned our backs off despite reaplying SPF 30). Yes - it was hot at night, yes - the generator was a bit loud and yes - the electricity and hence the fan wasn't available throughout the night, but...It's not Maldives, it's an uninhabited island, so don't expect luxury - if you love some quiet life, this place will be great for you. We had no issues with mosquitoes, the food was plenty and absolutely amazing (a choice of breakfast and a freshly caught fish or chicken with rice and veggies for lunch and dinner; every meal came with fruit). The owner Claudine was super caring and helped us organise everything, including transport to/from the island and the island hopping tour.
