"Because I finalized my trip quite late, I only booked the water villa a week in advance. Many water villas were already sold out, so after much deliberation, I chose White Sand Bay. Overall, it was great value for money and I would definitely come back again. In short, I highly recommend it. Here are some details about my experience:
Facilities: Very new, only opened a year or two ago, exceeding my expectations. The room's bright color scheme was very comfortable. The air conditioning was also good. However, there were some drawbacks. The shower area in the bathroom was prone to clogging, and the water drained very slowly, so you had to shower quickly. Secondly, there was no hot water, which was a major problem. I recommend showering in the afternoon sun, as the cold water might be too much to handle at night. Also, the room door's soundproofing was average; I suggest choosing a room further from the restaurant, as people walking in the hallway at night can disturb your sleep. Therefore, I give it 4 stars.
Cleanliness: I'm a bit of a clean freak, but overall it was clean, even exceeding my expectations. This indicates excellent hygiene. The bed was also very comfortable and wide, but a bit short; I estimate it to be about 1.8 meters long. If you are longer than that, I suggest sleeping sideways or diagonally for more comfort! Because it was cleaner and more comfortable than expected, I give it 5 stars.
Environment: It's relatively far from the shore, about a 25-minute boat ride. The overall water quality is acceptable, although there's some trash, but not much. The scenery is beautiful and breathtaking. The water villas are also very photogenic, with unique designs that look great. Overall rating: 4.5 stars.
Service: The service is acceptable. While not amazing, it's fine. The staff are friendly and generally handle problems well. The shuttle will contact you in advance to arrange your visit to the water villa. There are many activities available at the water villas, such as fishing, paddleboarding, and snorkeling. As for the food, which many people complain about, I think it's just so-so. It's not delicious, but it's not bad either; it's just a normal buffet. If you want something better, you can bargain with the boat passengers in the afternoon to buy seafood and have the kitchen prepare it. Overall rating for this: 4.5 stars."
