Very good place to stay, the atmosphere was a little lacking. The staff was fine but would expected them to be a little more up beat. The venue would be a ten out of ten if the feel was more engaging.

We have had a beautiful stay at the shearwater. We were in a two bedroom and it has everything you need while away from home. The facilities are clean. The pool and spa is heated and has easy access. It is close to parks, beach and the sea pool. I would recommend it to everyone!

Stayed 4 nights in a one bedroom unit which was very comfortable and airy. The unit had 2 air cons and 2 TV's and a modern kitchen with all the appliances you would need. The managers are very friendly nothing is a problem for them. The best thing about Shearwater is the location so close to the beach and 2... More

Great location,right across from the beach with several restaurants nearby. Very friendly staff and spacious room. Great views of the ocean. The pool is good but rather small.The a/c in our room broke and they had no hesitation in moving us to another room.

Shearwater Resort offers an outstanding holiday by the beach. I stay in the 3-bedroom penthouse apartment and the uninterrupted views of beach and hinterland are the best of anywhere I have travelled or been around the world. The Shearwater managers make the experience an absolute pleasure and the cleanliness and attention to detail of the whole resort is second-to-none. Do... More

We have stayed here a number of times, always good. Handy to everything. The only exception is that they allow smoking on balconies. This trip there were a number of smokers styling at pool level within a few metres of the pools making the pool area unusable to non smokers or those with kids of which we are both.

We stayed in a two bedroom apartment on the pool level. A glass balustrade separated our balcony from the pool area. It was great for our boys aged 8, 10 & 12. We could sit on our balcony and keep an eye on them in the pool. The only negative for being on this pool level is that other guests... More

Perfect location, rooms clean and high floors have the best ocean view. Good value for money and the staff very accommodating. Rooms well appointed. Bed excellent, the sun gets you up early. Within good walking distance to town shops and excellent restaurants below resort. Highly recommend the resort without reservation.
