Sheraton New Caledonia Deva Spa & Golf Resort

Sheraton New Caledonia Deva Spa & Golf Resort

8/10 Good
"Overall, I had a great stay. The location is excellent, and the bungalows are very nice. I also stayed here in 2020, when I was quite disappointed, so it was a pleasant surprise to see how much things have improved since then. The staff were friendly and helpful, although the team appeared to be a bit short-staffed, particularly in the mornings. As a result, early breakfast service may not always be available."
