Same thing happened to us on our first reach. I talked the place up to Sandie and when I went to book months out the couple rooms I wanted were not available. Good thing for me though I decided to go with Catcha and haven't looked back sense, well until this reach when I just lagged to book.

Banana Shout looks like a great value if you get one of the two cliff side rooms. $100 is not bad. If you get bored you can swim over to Catcha and sneak up the ladder.
