“These awards, collectively, are an honour bestowed to us by our wonderful guests. I am forever grateful to all our guests for their loyalty to Sun Island and their appreciation of our staff for providing exceptional service at all times,” he says.

These awards that are based on guest reviews are testimonies of guests’ genuine appreciation of our services.
