    • "I am so impressed with The Oyster Box. Since our stay there last week, I have been telling everyone who is within ear shot that this is a must visit. Besides for the stylish decor, old-world architecture and stunning location, the most outstanding feature for me was the service excellence. You are truly in a league of your own. I travel extensively and have had the pleasure of staying in some of the best hotels in many exotic locations, however...you have set a new standard. It is the warmth and genuine caring of all staff that make you unique. Professionalism is always expected, but when it is mixed with such incredible hospitability, it literally stops you in your tracks. No matter where I went or who I encountered, there was always a greeting waiting, a ready smile and a “how are you” – from cleaning to maintenance staff, from housekeeping to pool staff, and of course all the waiters and managers and front desk staff and doorman and porters and and and ... What a treat. Congratulations on such a rare welcome achievement." - Carlen Wandrag
