Staying at Nukubati Island was an unforgettable experience with stunning natural beauty and exceptional service. The island itself feels like a hidden paradise, where the friendly team goes above and beyond to ensure a memorable stay. However, the lack of air conditioning in the rooms made it quite uncomfortable, especially during the hot summer days. Overall, it was a perfect getaway for adventure and relaxation, but I would recommend preparing for the heat if you're visiting in the summer months.
