From your hosts Martin and Julie

“Our guests arrive at Tropical Hideaway in excited anticipation and you will not be disappointed. The pressures of life soon become a distant memory and as you relax with a rum punch in your hand enjoying the incredible views, you know this is a very special moment.

We are privileged to receive guests from all over the world and to witness the change in some people and the release of stress when guests first arrive to when they leave is truly rewarding. The pleasure we receive from seeing a change in people is not to be underestimated, with guests often leaving with a new outlook and enthusiasm for life.

It is always interesting to read our latest reviews, many of which are very personal and reflect our genuine intention that guests arrive as guests and leave as friends.

We hope you enjoy reading about Tropical Hideaway and our journey here and we hope to welcome you one day with a big smile from Julie and a welcome Rum Punch from me,”

With a smile,

Martin and Julie
