Although I was only here for a few days, I really enjoyed it. The staff were amazing. I feel as though each one I came into contact with went above and beyond. The scenery is beautiful, and the layout of the hotel adds to the experience. The hotel is not too far away from public transport but if you prefer to stay on the property, there are pools, the beach, movie nights and live entertainment. I will definitely visit again and encourage others to give this hotel a try. You will not be disappointed!

Warning: Unsafe food/water practices. My family had a wedding and about half the guests stayed here, the other half stayed at the Butterfly. The day we all went home, about 10 people got severely ill, even throwing up in the airport. ALL of those who got sick were staying at Bougainvillea. Every single one of us was hospitalized for what seemed like giardia. I was the only exception, but I probably should have been hospitalized too. In addition, the staff treated us strangely at times. We would get yelled at rudely for walking through the beach cafe... it clearly happened a lot, so they need to build new fencing instead of yelling at their guests. They also refused to serve me unless i put shoes on ... at the BEACH Cafe. Literally an outdoor BEACH environment with wooden floorboards. I had to go back up to my room to get my sandals.
