I loved everything about this property. It is low key, calm, away from mass tourism- it can be a bit of a mission to get there according to weather conditions but totally worth it . Owners Ira and Vicky are lovely people as is their staff of 3 who do an excellent job in a low key friendly way. Bit of a cliche to say they feel like family but after 7 days stay there it is true. I have travelled a lot and it is rare to find a place like this. It is not “flash” and don’t expect all the bells and whistles but if you want a quiet stay with swimming, reading ( and games avaible ) excellent internet and 4G as a bonus then this is the place for you.

Absolute paradise. To stay on a 'private' island with only the 8 bungalows at Tailana is such a dream and amazing value for money. We ended up staying 7 nights. We got the 2hr speed boat both ways, which we managed to share with other guests (arranged on whatsapp). Average price was 1,600,000 for the two of us. We know other guests who did it with the public ferry and wooden boats. The room and bed were simple but comfy, good mosquito net. Because we extended our stay, we actually stayed in the newer A-Frame room as well as the older white-washed room, and while both were good, we actually preferred the older room as it was easier to stand in (the a-frame is a bit low on the sides of the bed obviously). The food was excellent, 3 delicious meals per day. They catered to vegetarian diet without a problem. Not many mosquitos which was surprising. We snorkelled everyday (you can rent equipment from their small dive shop on the island) and thought it was really beautiful. We saw a lot of coloured fish, some stingray, and one turtle. Definitely worth the big trip to get here, but we'd recommend staying at least 4 nights to make it worthwhile. The bathrooms are simple (European style, but non-flushing... which isn't a problem) The outdoor showers are great and offer enough privacy. Tip: I brought some beers with me and they let me keep them in the fridge :)

Kimo Resort is a true paradise island with coconut trees all around, golden beaches and crystal clear water. The bungalows ( superior ) are wonderfully placed on the sea front just meters from the water and next to the lovely bar and restaurant area. Snorkeling around the coral reef just off the beach was magical. We do hope that Willy the owner of this resort manages to continue to look after the reef. Bungalows were spacious and well designed for two adults with a comfortable bed and a simple, but beautifully designed bathroom.The restaurant served simple but very tasty food including bbq fish and vegetables. Riska and her team of staff were so welcoming and friendly and time and again went out of their way to make us feel at home. We stayed for 6 days and loved it. This really is a little piece of paradise.

The staff here is absolutely amazing. The facilities and location is beyond perfect, we absolutely loved our stay!

A really enjoyed staying Here, it was what I wanted. Danny ,the owner, is very friendly and always happy to do anything extra for the guest. Really nice built bunglalows with a private bathroom, which you don't get in the other resort ,, good food, lots of fresh fish.They dont have any activities priorgsnised but they can organize it for you, it would be bit pricey as all trips around the here are. Yeah you might see a rat  but it's not like they're running around, actually I only saw one after 5 days staying here. Considering the price it's really the best deal on the Island  Descover paradise at the Palambak Paradise Resort
