Music sounds better at Moonstone.

Moonstone.
From the minute you open the large wooden entrance door, you’re already hooked. The staircase leading down to the main living space is spectacular and all of the lush bedrooms are hidden behind the stone walls. You know immediately that this is a special place. But enough of the descriptive narrative- we all kinda know what Moonstone looks like by now.
I had the pleasure to stay here for two full days with 3 close friends. And what a 48 hour journey that was. We didn’t really venture very far from the pool lounging area for the first 12 hours we were there. Why would you? The views are spectacular! The fridge is stocked with cold drinks and the wonderful Mr A is on hand whenever you need him. My 3 friends and I hooked up to the elaborate hi-tech sound system and we just chilled out by the pool listening to our music, drinking fine wine and enjoying this incredible space.
After taking in the sunset we used the downstairs cinema/games room where I was introduced to shuttle board: rather an addictive game too!
In the morning Mr A prepared breakfast and we sat with our coffee while the kayaks were being prepared for our morning paddle to the nearby island. It seemed a shame to break up the tranquillity with something strenuous, but it was on the menu and off we went. Boy, did I not regret that decision. We kayaked to the island and rewarded ourselves by collapsing on the sand with a cold bottle of water. We really were enjoying every minute of this. We hiked up to the top of the island and breathed in the fantastic panoramic views. I believe the island was called Turtle island.
After kayaking back across the open water we were met with massage tables laid out by the pool. Seriously? Does life get any better than this? As it happens it does.
After a dip in the infinity pool for the 100th time, Mr A prepared the dinning table for a real feast. What can I say? Fine local cuisine consisting of yellow curry crab, fish in chilli sauce etc etc and all washed down with fine red wine. Kayaked, massaged and fed and it’s only 2pm. We stayed until 7pm that evening.
More lounging in and out of the pool. It’s the pool area that gave me the Moonstone vibe. It’s such a picturesque, relaxing place to be. We hooked up to the sound system and reflected on the short time we had spent here and how the remainder of our vacation would probably never reach these heights. This is a trip the four of us will never forget. If anyone wants to experience something special; this is the place. I’m trying to sum up Moonstone with a catchy phrase, so here goes:
The views keeps changing, the colours are never the same. Music sounds better at Moonstone. Oh that really sounds corny!
Ultimately, no reviews can do this place justice, nor the manner or congeniality of the exceptional Mr A.
