de Faaroa Botanical Garden Tours

Very quiet beautiful location. Staff made us welcome as soon as we arrived. Pick up at ferry was right on time with a comfortable ride. Staff was very helpful with anything we needed. Rental car/scooter right on site and island was very easy to get around. Terrible wifi connection is probably the only thing that could be improved. Free us of kayaks, snorkel gear and paddle boards was great. Would definitely recommend.

Got there and no one was at the front desk. Asked someone from the restaurant who was smoking at the front entrance on their phone, and she said that maybe they were on break and we would have to wait. No let me check on that for you or offer to help. Just went back to talking on her phone. Had to wait for about 30 minutes to check in. I understand people taking breaks, but normally someone else would relieve that person to avoid someone waiting to check in. Check in starts at 2pm. Why would someone go on break at 4pm. Seems like bad timing. Restaurant was ok. Very quiet place. Although it said that I was purchasing the last room there seemed to be only 8 couples staying on the resort. For $500 a night I expected better.

Everything, from the welcome to daily life, was amazing. Breakfast was very generous and of great quality, and dinner (which was included in our deal) was also enjoyable every night! The hotel staff was nice with us from the first moment to the last, making sure to track our flight was on time. Special mention as well to the water activity company over the road - we had our first jet ski class and enjoyed daily kayak trips!
