We have been fortunate enough to stay in many places around the world. This stay surpassed all of our expectations. Ok, it is not beachfront but certainly oceanview. Which is even better as it also means you can enjoy the tranguility of the place. Front desk service is personal and amongst the very best. It beats your 5 star plus... More

We stayed for just one night this time due to weather, but we have stayed there previously too. The units are very well appointed and set up for a great relaxing time with all you need at hand. The main bedroom door opens completely across (if you are a couple) which means if you leave the glass doors open you... More

We were so lucky to of been able to experience staying in the most amazing scenic penthouse ever. As soon as we walked in we were totally blown away by the most amazing ocean view you could ever dream of. The views are simply breathtaking. On the other side of the balcony is the most amazing view of nature, yes... More

We just stayed for 2 nights and I have to say that in my years of weekend getaways which are often, I cannot speak high enough of our stay at the Ocean Palms. Obviously the views are a stand out feature but in addition to that was the quality of beds, pillows, cutlery, crockery including a dishwasher that works. I... More

A lovely place to stay, definitely a "wow" reaction with the views out to sea from the balcony. There is a BBQ available on the balcony and we used that every evening, it was a great way to enjoy an evening meal in a tranquil and isolated location with beautiful views. The balcony is a very good size with ample... More

Lack of sound proofing has every move in the rooms above loudly echoing in our room below, the kitchen is not fully equipped with utensils, what utensils that are supplied are poor quality, lack of privacy from the street makes the balcony useless, views are limited and the units look into each other so have to keep curtains closed, all...

We enjoyed our stay at Rainbow Ocean Palms. As others have described that apartments are fantastic and make excellent use of the view. Clever architecture ensures privacy and the feeling that we had the hill to ourselves. The kids bedroom is at the back of the apartment, so once they were in bed it was almost like we were a... More
