The dietary requirements on the menu I have to say is the best I've ever seen in a hotel with menus set out in a way for ease and also accommodating a wide range of needs with a large vegan and veggie section.
The menus are extensive and this resort really does well to cater to different food preferences or tolerances, with vegan, low carb and dairy free versions of almost everything available (separated on a different menu).
My wife is vegan and they accommodated her with excellent meals. The chef even gave my wife a personal vegan cooking class.
The chef truly surprised us at each meal with his creativity and flawless execution, and especially as vegans we were so impressed by the dishes we were served each day.
What impressed me most was how well they catered to my needs as a vegan. I received a fully vegan menu that was not only varied but also exceptionally delicious. A big thank you to Chef Nikson, who even prepared extra dishes just for me.

I am vegan and they accommodate my needs with no issues at all. Beside, it felt like they are enjoying the challenge of creating new dishes. They even prepared a vegan cake for my birthday.
My partner has strict dietary requirements and is also vegan, let me just say we both came back to our villa full to the brim every single night, this was due to the lovely head chef Mussa who made dishes tailored specifically to her needs every single day.
The chef cooked an all-vegan 7-course menu absolutely spectacular.
