Robinson Bungalows

A ver beautiful and laid back place, totally worth the walk to the other side of the island. The bungalows are basic, but comfortable.

This is an amazing property and a fantastic experience. We booked the last available basic bungalow, which meant a short walk to a shared outdoor toilet/shower hut (*there are bungalows with private toilets and showers available). There is no hot water, but it didn’t take long to figure out that a room temperature shower is available in the mid- to late-afternoon. The food in the onsite restaurant is top notch, and be aware: the portion sizes are huge! If you’re so inclined there is a nice little beach bar near the water with cheap beer and reasonably priced, strong cocktails. Best of all, of course, is the idyllic Sunset Beach location. Great sand, lots of comfy, shaded seating just back from the beach, and clear, warm water for swimming. Be aware that you have to hike into the property from Saracen Bay. The hike takes approximately 25 minutes and there is a short stretch that requires caution (and a reasonable level of fitness), but there are guide ropes on that stretch so it’s safe. Also, the site is pretty much off-the-grid, so there is no data or wifi - which is part of the charm. If you absolutely must connect to the internet you can take a short walk (like 3 minutes short) up the beach to Sunset Adventures. There you can sip one of their outstanding smoothies or fruit juices while you jump onto their wifi for a bit. But hopefully you don’t feel the need to don’t feel the need too often, because being set free from your phone is part of what makes Robinson Bungalows so special. Highly recommended.
