Xtabi is a hidden gem offering a fantastic vacation experience with breathtaking views and an inviting atmosphere. The cleanliness and comfort of the seaside cottage truly added to our stay, and the friendly team made us feel welcome as if we were part of a big family. The unique rock swimming areas and access to incredible snorkeling were definite highlights. However, the presence of ants in our cottage and some cleaning inconsistencies were minor inconveniences that could use improvement.
