10/10 Exceptional

I chose this hotel for the convenience of snorking . Out standing dives every day new location and diversity in coral and sea creatures. Dive master really knew his stuff and took excellent care and safety. The food and accommodation were excellent. Very nice large rooms and modern and large bathroom. The staff was so nice.

Sound of the ocean makes your day we love ❤️ the place we love to come back again very friendly staff.
Jagendar, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We loved staying here. The staff was very helpful and accommodating. We were always taken care of. Make sure to check your bill. If you are traveling with others they may charge food or drinks to the other room. Just stay on top of what is being charged to which room. Other than that it was a great experience.

6/10 Good

The place is infested by bats. The noise was so bad that we couldn't sleep for the 2 nights of our stay. Never again.
Jamila, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I loved the rooms and the service. Everyone was very pleasant and the environment was tranquil and pristine....until the bats made their presence known. There were no less than 300-400 bats in the trees on the property. It wasn't terrible because they are nocturnal and just stayed in the trees. However, if you have a fear of bats I would advise against staying here. The food was phenomenal and the service was impeccable. Very convenient location. The concierge set up everything for us, from diving to hiking to meals. You have to tell the concierge the day prior what you want for dinner because all of the food is bespoke.
Myles, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

This is for local workers, not for tourists
1. Rooms had a bad smell, possibly due to rainy weather, but no effort was made to address it such as turning on the AC or burning incense. 2. Had to change rooms due to a broken shower head, indicating poor room maintenance and oversight during check-ups. 3. The new room's bathroom ceiling was full of mildew, suggesting a lack of cleanliness and maintenance across multiple rooms. 4. Despite experiencing multiple inconveniences, there was no apology from the staff, particularly at the front desk, who failed to greet, orient, or apologize to the guest.

8/10 Very good

潜水很方便，离码头和潜水点都很近。但其他周边缺乏可逛的点，住店客人很少，也没法组织一日游之类的。然后热水水温比较低，提了一次，第二天好了点，后面又恢复旧状了，反正凑活能洗，也就不去提了。另外，我在斐济遭遇了现金失窃，被偷了200美金和100新西兰元，但小偷不是全部拿走，而是只是取了几张，所以我直到出了斐济才发现，无法确定是在2个度假村的哪个被偷的。

Merja, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice hotel with friendly service. The restaurant did have a very limited menu for lunch or dinner. To insure the availability of your meal choices, you had to make a reservation and choose your appetizer, entree and desert, no later than 11:00 a.m. that morning. If you didn't, you choices might not be available.

Not a bad spot
This place is fine if you’re looking for some average accommodation. Staff were pleasant and the view is great. Right near the date line and ferry, however a fair drive to the fall etc.

Would happily go back
Overall the place is very nice and fairly clean. We had a couple of issues but the staff are exceptionally friendly and sorted out our issues quite quickly. The main thing that wasn't great was the blinds aren't black out at all and at night if the room lights are on inside you can see straight through them from outside/ anyone walking along the beach.

10/10 Exceptional

Wonderful place with friendly and attentive staff. Everyone there knew my name and i felt very at home! Good food, clean rooms, great dive trips, i would happily recommend this place to friends and would return in a heart beat! It was hard to leave! Only down side was paid wifi that was pretty spotty, but that is an issue everywhere on the island i guess.

10/10 Exceptional

Das Hotelteam war sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Bei Ankunft und bei der Abreise wurde für uns gesungen. Das Essen war hervorragend. Wir waren leider die einzigen Gäste während dieser Zeit, aber dafür wurden wir besonders gut bedient und die Preise für die diversen Aktivitäten waren von daher "verhandelbar". Die Sitzplatztüre ist nicht gut verschliessbar und von aussen für einen Einbrecher relativ einfach zu öffnen, weshalb wir unsere Wertsachen (insbesondere Pässe) bei der Reception unter Verschluss liessen. Der Zimmersafe ist nicht wirklich "safe", da er nicht mit dem Mobiliar verbunden ist und somit einfach entwendet werden kann. Alles in allem ein sehr schöner Aufenthalt, der uns in guter Erinnerung bleiben wird!
