Solosolo Holidays from AU$1,229

It is a great place in all respects.

Room in good condition however disappointed at the size of room as it was much smaller than what we are used to. Very little room to move & we had more than one large suitcase so had to store them along the doorway

Beautiful gardens and friendly staff. Pool was warm and the aircon cool (enough). Bed was comfy and the view lovely. Food was much better down at coconut club but the cocktails were great next to the pool. Expensive for what it was, but still a lovely few nights away.

My family and I stayed at Orator Hotel in Villa 5, which sleeps four. The villa was nice and comfortable, and we appreciated the peaceful atmosphere. The staff were lovely, especially Joseph, whose friendliness really stood out. However, several issues made our stay disappointing. The bathroom needs attention — the shower was either extremely hot or freezing cold with no in-between, and the water pressure was very poor. Breakfast was nice, but for the first three days we had no idea that eggs could be cooked to order. Staff didn’t mention it, and there was no sign displayed. We only found out from another guest, and were later told a sign should have been there. We had lunch at the hotel during the first couple of days but didn’t return after waiting nearly two hours each time for our food. We later learned the delay was because staff were preparing a private buffet for the owner and their friends while paying guests were left waiting. That felt rude and unfair. The place also needs major refurbishing and maintenance. The pool had missing and loose tiles, which is hazardous. My brother even had to move rooms due to a leaking ceiling. There are also what feels like a thousand pot plants everywhere, making the space look cluttered and overwhelming. Overall, it was a hit-and-miss experience, and we would not return or recommend it to family and friends. Sorry Orator but you need to do better!!!

Location: one of the best locations if you want to stay in town. Convenient shop on the ground floor. You also have the city that’s 10-15 mins walk from the hotel. Room: beautiful room, I booked a standard room & it was well worth the money. Good space travelling alone. Bathroom also has a lot of space to move around. Service: good service from reception staff. Always happy and willing to help with my enquires. Altogether my experience was awesome. I also brought my friends & family to my room to check it out & they also love it & will consider Taufusi Hotel their preferred location in future trips.
