Things to know
One reviewer noted an undisclosed fee for pets, which was only communicated after check-in.

Petram Resort & Residences offers many elements of a calmcation, including private outdoor spaces, excellent water access, and a generally quiet, relaxing atmosphere. However, its isolated location requiring a car for village access and some aspects of a larger resort experience (e.g., kids' entertainment, potential for crowded breakfast) prevent it from reaching Tier A.
