Reviewer Type: Solo Traveller
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Splendid location, no people nearby, great views, good mattress, space for a fire... And a very available and friendly host just a Whatsapp message away :-)
Negative: Arrival arrangements weren't totally clear, and it would be good to push people more to rowing AROUND the island rather than walking across it, which was difficult. If you're on your own, take care to put all your stuff at the back of the boat to balance it, otherwise you will run aground all the time!
Summary: A wonderful adventure
