클럽 타라 아일랜드 리조트(Club Tara Island Resort)

My goals for this holiday trip was peace and quiet away from any crowds, and I got just that here. The island is really remote, so be prepared for that. It took a 1.5 hour boat ride from Sairgao to reach the resort but once here, it was super relaxing. The resort itself is dated but still comfortable. The bed slept well and the over the water hit had the best view of the cove 24hr a day. In the room, you have a fridge for items that you bring with you, a balcony, and a separate bathroom with a jacuzzi tub and shower. Bring your own toiletries as they do want to protect the environment and only provide soap and shampoo. The resort offered a day trip to nearby cases and coves (non-stinging jellyfish!) that was lovely. You also have free use of kayaks and paddle boards. I brought my own snorkeling gear with me and water shoes. The ground is rocky to get into the water, so you might need them. The menu at the resort is simple but good. Anything chicken was the best! Make sure you bring cash for everything as credit card are shown to be accepted but aren’t. You will need to pay cash for everything. Also note that this is a remote part of the island so the is nothing around and you are surrounded by wildlife, which is exactly what I wanted. Keep that in mind when you book! I recommend taking the tour to see the jellyfish (non-stinging) and caves. It was amazing.

Incompetent, greedy, evil administration, unwilling to help in a difficult situation.

景色無敵，服務人員態度特別好，温馨有求必應，食品有點簡單，房間的設施比較簡陋老舊了，窗式空調一點不起作用！

The pictures posted at ********** is totally different from the real or actual picture of the resort. The bridge is collapsed, no water in the swimming pool, no power or electricity, no backup power, limited food, rooms not well maintained, rooms not safe, jacuzzi is rusted, overall rate: worst hotel or resort. We can’t cancel our stay, we just left and get a new hotel to stay. Club Tara should not be operated and should be reported to Tourism or city because it’s really unsafe. Hopefully I could get a refund.

The condition of the toilet is terrible (it’s very hard to call it a comfort room). It’s very smelly and unclean. There’s plenty of cockroaches everywhere. The table in the dining area was not wiped. We even saw remnants of food from our previous meal. There is a lot to improve in terms of cleanliness and orderliness. Being an old resort is not an excuse to be untidy. We can tolerate the dilapidation but not a dusty room. If you want to thrive, you need an overhaul.

Beautiful scenery. If you don’t mind being in a secluded environment with tons of wildlife around, then this is the place for you.
