Greg, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Loved that we could support 100% local staying here and all the staff were friendly and attentive. It was also so quiet even though there were many people staying! Felt like we were staying in a wee village vs a hotel resort which was perfect for us. Good food, clean newsish rooms (including the best hotel bed and pillow I've ever had) and great beach access for flicking between the pool and the ocean!

Great Resort to stay at. Relaxing & peaceful. Great view & beautiful beach with crystal clear water. Definitely the best side of the island to stay on for beaches. Staff very friendly & helpful. Easy drive to some wonderful nearby attractions. Traditional Sunday lunch was very nice & Wednesday night buffet & Fire Show a definite must do! A wonderful stay, highly recommend this resort & location.

Our holiday in paradise was truly unforgettable, with the staff being incredibly friendly and the day tours exceeding our expectations. However, there was one minor issue - the shower in our room needed better temperature and pressure control.

Nice property. Property was great. Was disappointed in the lack or no WiFi and TV never worked.

Kuini, 8-night trip

8/10 Very good

The people and location make this resort. The staff and owners are really really fantastic and the beach is second to none. The villa was really good. The downside was the private garden-view bedroom. This was very mouldy and lots of mildew which was quite difficult for my partner with asthma.

Very good in everything they need to upgrade their food service quality wasn’t that good
