Club Tara Island Resort Reviews

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.

I really liked the location of the hotel. Quiet, calm, romantic, your own private beach. You can have a wonderful dinner on the balcony in your room, without strangers. The only downside is that you can only get to the hotel by private boat - 3,000 pesos one way. The rooms require renovation.
