Not just for the views but also for the cocktails as the owner, PK, makes some of the best of the island.
There are to categories of bungalows. The Garden View Bungalows: The simplicity of a tropical garden, relaxing in a hammock on your private terrace. The Sea View Bungalows: These are newer units, with a private terrace that are right by the ocean.

Where did the name come from? ( according to the resort owner )
Once upon a time in a small island far far away invaded by monkeys, a greedy princess was dangerously addicted to bananas. According to the legend, she was eating more than 2,400 bananas a day…Meanwhile, all the monkeys seriously started starving…
They captured the princess and invoked the King-Kong-Wizard to get rid of her «yellowfruitholic» appetite.
As a punishment, she was transformed into a banana mermaid until the time she finds the most beautiful, amazing, astonishing, speechless, gorgeous and romantic sunset in the world.
She found it, guess what she called that place?
