Really good Breakfast Variety

I had an amazing experience enjoying breakfast at the Lime restaurant. Every morning, I was greeted by Boris and his team, who provided a fantastic selection of dishes ranging from fresh fruits to delicious pastries and hearty options. It was a delight to discover new flavors each day, making my extended stay even more enjoyable.

Great Entertainment Features

I appreciated the media and entertainment options available in my room. The TV had a great selection, and I enjoyed unwinding with some movies after a long day. It was the perfect way to relax in the evenings before heading out again the next day.

I had a decent stay at Hotel Jen, perfect for an overnight transition to another atoll. The speedboat transfer from the airport was quick and efficient, taking just about 10 minutes. However, the room was quite small, and unfortunately, I was kept awake by the construction noise outside my window. Overall, it offers good value for an overnight stay but be prepared for some noise issues.

I had high hopes for my stay, but it turned out to be a mixed experience.

Even though the rooftop dining was enjoyable, overall, I felt the price didn't match the quality of the accommodations provided.
