Lovely holiday needs fine tuning
Staff were just lovely We had really bad weather for 4 days heavy rain which caused quite a mess around the island -just unfortunate no fault of the resort and gave the staff a lot of cleaning up to do Food was really nice however the resort states on line and also in the welcome paperwork that the main restaurant has a buffet or you can order from an al a carte menu However this was not the case as there was only the buffet or go to the traders cafe When we were advised on night one that there was only a buffet I just assumed it was due to it being 23/12 and so close to Xmas I did check after Xmas with reception who advised that I was correct there was either a buffet of a la carte menu On the 4th night I was not happy with the style of buffet and asked again for the a la carte menu to be told there was not one However they could make me something Great but that was a disaster I was asked if I would like seafood to which I replied yes if it was the slipper lobster from the night before The staff member checked with the kitchen who said yes it would be about an hour No problem I said but an hour later when the meal arrived it was 2 scallops, fine I like those, plus a heap of mussels and unshelled prawns. I was going to go to the buffet but my husband did advise the waiter that I did not like what they had brought and it was not what they offered me. It put the wait staff in a very uncomfortable position They just need to learn communication and get things right

6/10 Good

Underwhelming
Wildly expensive for an average resort. Some staff made an effort others did not, inconsistent levels of hospitality. Unlike other resorts staff didn’t make an effort to get to know your name. Mission impossible to get pool towels or swap them for dry ones. There were none in our room. Was told room service would provide as part of daily clean, except they didn’t. When addressed with reception they had 4 towels sent to pool area but they couldn’t find us. Just seemed a really difficult way to do something so simple. Resort is spread out so factor in walking. No information book in room to get familiar with resort (how to book spa, hire a bicycle, activity schedule, etc). On check out no one asking how your stay was. Had expected top notch hospitality for price we paid.

Hit and Miss
Overall, we had an enjoyable stay. The beachfront bure was nicely decorated, very large and overlooking the beach and ocean. We especially loved sitting on the patio enjoying the view. The staff was friendly and the pool was a nice spot to relax. However, the food was not great. The fish appeared to be frozen (surprising for an island) and the breakfast was the same underwhelming items day after day. There was the option to order eggs but they messed up my order so many times that I stopped ordering. Also, the first day, they had an abundance of fresh lilikoi and mango, but after that, it was the standard honeydew, pineapple, and watermelon. The Indian-themed night was delicious, but otherwise, we did not really enjoy the food. There's nowhere else to really eat except the island, especially if you get the all-inclusive package, so that detracted from the vacation. The hotel runs daily activities and tours, which were a nice option to get out and about. We enjoyed the complimentary kava ceremony and daily music. However, others were pricy for what they were. For example, the island hopping tour included dropping us off at Castaway Island for two hours and a little bit of snorkeling for 170FJ. Also, the sheets were very rough (my partner called them sandpaper) and there was broken glass in our shower upon arrival. Lastly, we were supposed to get a free bottle of wine on arrival, which was not there and we ended up having to ask twice to finally have it delivered.

Musket Cove was an absolute delight to stay at. It was always clean, the food was beautiful and the employees were welcoming and accommodating. Our room had everything we needed for a baby and the facilities were great to keep our family entertained. Musket Cove is a bit smaller than Plantation but this made it feel cosy and had more of a community vibe without sacrificing on the quality of the experience. Highly recommend this Resort and would definitely stay again!

We had to take the meal plan with no choice We’re vegetarian and there was no options for us The buffet breakfast was last night’s reheated food and it was awful Lunch choices for us we’re a lettuce with a tiny tomato Dinner was better but definitely not 4 star The pool ladies toilet was disgusting and the seat should have been destroyed because it was beyond filthy The beachfront Bure we had was the only redeeming factor but smelled badly

Musket Cove was a short ferry ride to beautiful Malolo Lailai island. The staff was amazing starting with a warm musical welcome. Grace was our host that checked us in and showed us around the resort. We arrived early, so she made sure we had a shady cabana by the pool which included lunch. We enjoyed the food at both restaurants and the buffet had a variety of food every evening. The bay in front of the resort was great for paddle boarding, kayaking, hobby cats, snorkeling and ocean walks at low tide. Don’t forget to book a massage on the pier. The beach front bure we stayed in was so nice with open air feeling with screens and louver. If you wanted the air conditioning, you closed up louvers and enjoyed the cool air conditioning. It had a large bathroom and sitting area with a kitchenette supplied with bottle water and filtered water for coffee or tea. They also have a small convenient store for things you may have forgotten or want to cook in your unit. My on recommendation would be to have a clothesline or drying rack in the bathroom or behind the bure for your wet items. When your trip is over, the staff sings as you depart on the ferry. Would highly recommend this casual, friendly, well maintained and comfortable resort.

The resort compound is beautiful and the houses located at the lagoon are beautiful. However, we had serious problems with mosquitos. Also, the amenities were somewhat run down, the food rather simple and the staff while friendly didn't pay much attention to the guests.
