Rock Islands Holidays from AU$8,964

The staff were excellent. Always helpful and cheerful. Hotel is centrally located and easy to access. Stairs are the only access to the upper levels of rooms. The hotel is clean and a good choice for people not wanting the “resort” experience. The rate is moderate. Breakfast was included in our rate. The food is locally inspired and included noodle dishes, various proteins in sauces, rice, fresh fruit, muffins, toast, fruit juice, coffee or tea.

We loved our stay at Sea Passion Hotel. The staff (especially the young ladies at reception) were always friendly, cheerful and very helpful. Our room was large, with two big, comfortable beds. The ocean view is a little spoilt by the main road, but when our shower wasn’t getting hot on the first day this was fixed very quickly. The beach attached to the hotel is small but lovely, with quite good snorkelling around to the right. Breakfast was an unusual mix of buffet options (at least to Aussies), but we could have eggs cooked to order every morning, with toast & jams. The only fruit was orange, which was a little disappointing. We only ate a couple of lunches at the hotel, but each was good. There are many restaurants within walking distance. This is a great place to stay if you’re going diving or snorkelling/kayaking, as most of these companies are located nearby. We hope to return.

The dresser drawers were not completely cleaned before I occupied the room.

Very nice and clean, and staff are friendly and attentive.
