Lonely Planet review

More modern, pastel-coloured villas arranged along a lovely beach, with a selection of cheaper units set back from the sand around the private teardrop pool.

Castaway is a small, welcoming kind of place where you'll have plenty of opportunity to get to know your fellow guests (partly because it's just that kind of a place, but partly because the units are packed in pretty tightly on a smallish plot). The poolside units are arranged in the main lodge building behind reception - none have full-blown sea-views, but you can probably just about glimpse the lagoon from the top-floor. The beachfront units are better positioned, though whether the view is worth the extra price-tag is a moot point. The decor throughout all the rooms is floral-themed and makes liberal use of primary tropical-island colours (so those sunglasses might just come in handy). There's a smart decked area overlooking the lagoon, shaded by a bright blue sailcloth, and plenty of sun-loungers and hammocks to go round too.
