"From where should I start, I have no idea. But to be honest, to have such a homestay in such a small town at a reasonable price is something unimaginable. It's a heaven for solo travellers since it won't break your banks. The breakfast was delicious and changed everyday, and there are vegeterian options also for both lunch and dinner. Their staff Eta and Mimi are cool and polite and will take your requests carefully. The location is bit far from the town, in a village not very far from the beach, but you can find microlets running during the school hours going towards the city. The best thing I liked was the whale-watching group tour which was very reasonably priced and I enjoyed the company of Fernando who's the owner of all DaTerra hostels. Overall, don't hesitate to stay here if you are a solo traveller. This is the best option for you."
"The resort made visiting the exceptional reefs of the island easy and very enjoyable, with an excellent dive master to guide you. The staff was attentive and welcoming. Good location on the water, but no beach."
Edward Compass Diving Resort
"Very convenient location near the ferry port, diving/snorkelling/other activities on offer, free tea/coffee all day, breakfast included, option to purchase lunch and dinner (food options are otherwise limited on the island), friendly staff who are always around to assist, beachfront location, hammocks/beach chairs to relax."
"Location and accessibility for magical snorkelling and diving. Food, varied choices and delicious. Ice cream amazing. Staff friendly, helpful and always available for any queries you may have. We had a hut on the beach, awesome. A fantastic relaxed place to stay. We will definitely return."
Nicole Atauro Dive Resort
