6.6/10

The location of this resort is fantastic, sitting right in the middle of 7 Mile Beach, which made my beach days super convenient. However, the resort itself is pretty basic and could use some improvements. I found the food to be overpriced, and there was a lack of essential toiletries that I expected. On the plus side, the staff were very attentive during my stay.

Rooms

The facilities were quite basic, and the lack of attention to cleanliness in certain areas was notable. Cats roaming around were a bit of a distraction too.

Roots Bamboo has a great location right along the stunning 7-mile beach, making it convenient for beach access and nearby dining options like Alfred's and Kamaras. The rooms are basic but adequate, and the staff is mostly friendly and attentive. However, there are some issues with amenities, such as unstable Wi-Fi and inconsistent cleaning services, which can detract from the experience. Overall, it offers decent value for a beachfront stay, but be prepared for a few quirks.
