My wife and I stayed here for four nights in mid March for our Honeymoon. While the weather was very average, and we had the threat of a cyclone hanging over us, we had a great time. The staff were very friendly, the resort itself beautiful, and the location perfect! We stayed in an overwater bungalow which really are a... More

This place is just beautiful and a perfect place to relax. We stayed 3 nights, mid -week in an over the water bungalow. The colours of the lagoon are just incedible! Check in was efficient with a receptionist waiting to greet us with a lovely cold fruit punch. While she explained to us the various facilities etc our luggage was... More

We stayed in overwater bungalows which were well designed inside - separate bedroom rather than one big studio, the lounge area was very spacious and the fully marble-tiled bathroom was huge.The balcony needs a large umbrella as there is no covered area and we had sun all day so couldn't lie out there and read at all, something which I...

This resort was outstanding. We were lucky enough to stay in an overwater bungalow for the three nights. The design of the bungalows was a little odd but other than that they were fantastic. No kids allowed though as they have steps leading directly into the lagoon for swimming and snorkelling without having to go to the beach. We were... More

We stayed there for 3 weeks, in an overwater bungalow. The rooms' design is not the best you could dream of for such bungalows : the bathroom is huge but, in comparison, the room is a bit tiny and dark. We had a very windy stay, and wind can become a nightmare at night when it blows strongly. At the... More

We stayed in an over-water bungalow which was fantastic - snorkel off your steps, excellent views. If you're going to this resort I strongly recommend staying in one of them, no kids allowed though. Sea snakes were very common but not at all aggressive, we had one lazing on the deck with us for ages. Keep your eyes open and... More

A hotel not worth visiting. Although the complex is nice and beautifully located, it had been built on an island with a bird colony which makes sleeping at night almost impossible. As I eat almost anything I thought the negative comments on the food were exaggerated. They are not! The hotel has the worst restaurant I have ever been to.

The rooms are very old and average. 3 star, though comfortable beds and good water pressure. We were unable to get an overwater bungalow due to having small children but this would definately be my number one choice. We had a beachfront bungalow and you really can't get anymore beachfront (A king tide may have come in our front door).... More

After a short water taxi ride to the island we were pleasantly surprised by this quaint little island and it's hotel. As all the major tourist attractions like the cultural centre and zoo are closed on Monday's the trip to the island was an easy choice. The island is only small but there are plenty of water activities available for... More
