"The staff at the now re-named Beach resort are certainly some of the friendliest in a country where friendly staff are generally the norm. The road to get here is a potholed disaster but it’s worth it.Lovely true Island style huts set In wonderful gardens with a very good restaurant and since new aust owners the free hot breakfast is back. With a nice beach frontage as the new name suggests this is our 4th stay and definitely looking at next year again"

"We were a couple in our 50’s. We had a lagoon view villa, the room was clean, a bit dated. Had a safe, decent water pressure in the shower and a bath. The toilet door did not close and had no lock, weird but a non issue for us. Would have been nice to have wine glasses and bottle opener, maybe a plate and a knife so we could enjoy snack on our deck. But we made do. Has a swim up bar and a few pools. They looked nice but too many screaming kids, we felt should not have been allowed in the bar area. Buffet dinner $35 each was pretty good, lots of variety and themed nights. Buffet breakfast was free with the room, also very good. Enjoyed the fire show. There is a gym and kayaks, snorkelling is great. Take water shoes, you don’t want to step on the starfish or sea cucumber or sea snakes. It would have been nice to have a buggy service to the front gate, it’s far to walk in the heat. The staff were a mixture of helpful and rude. Most appeared to not enjoy their job and a simple request was too much trouble. The property is huge and is great for families and golfers. But not if you would prefer a smaller more intimate location. We enjoyed our stay but would not stay again. 7/10"
