This wasn’t our first time staying here, and we absolutely love this resort! We were upgraded to a waterfront villa, and it was exceptional! Beautifully renovated, fresh, modern, and everything looked brand new. 10/10! The staff could be a little more friendly and attentive, especially at the pool bar. 8/10 Our son absolutely loved the kids’ club! However, the floor was quite dirty, and I didn’t feel comfortable letting my 1-year-old crawl around there. The toys could also use an update. 8/10 The food was okay, but there is definitely room for improvement. We stayed at Iririki Resort for a few nights towards the end of our holiday, and the food there was noticeably better. Overall, it’s a beautiful tropical resort with a lovely atmosphere. Despite a few areas that could be improved, we really enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back!

There were some disparaging comments left previously which didn’t put us off, so let’s address them. Dates: it is a little dated, if you’re expecting a “resort” like the Ramada, it’s not for you. It’s a well maintained family style resort where the staff are fantastic. The breakfast (delivered to your room) is a little different but perfectly adequate for your needs. It’s different but very enjoyable with the staff the absolute high point
