We had an amazing time at Bandos, as a big family of 8 people. We were taken good care of by all the staff who were all super friendly. We had full board, and that was worth it for us. The food was amazing. Special thanks to Swapan, Samul and Hana in Gallery Restaurant❤️ Also great diving and medical facilities! We also enjoyed the gym, although it is a bit simple and outdated. Snorkling was incredible, beautiful things to see everywhere 😍🪸🏝️ We only dream of coming back in the future!
