I had a remarkable stay at Palau Carolines Resort, perched on a hillside offering breathtaking views of the ocean and jungle. The bungalows are clean and modern, with spacious balconies that enhance the experience. However, the dining options were somewhat limited, especially for lunch and dinner, and the access can be challenging for those with mobility issues. The staff is incredibly cheerful and accommodating, making my stay enjoyable.
