The staff were helpful and friendly.
The room was average as its location was not the best.
The breakfast area was dirty and more staff are needed to clean tables and provide utensils plates etc.
Meals were below average but the service was great.
Caters for families but not for adults without children on extended stays.

Nice 4 night stay. Room was comfortable-no tv reception but a good on demand movie selection for relaxing in the evening. Food was good -pizzas and the Christmas is July buffet especially. Breakfast by the reef each morning was enjoyable. We saw lots of wildlife -whales, dolphins and even a sea turtle. There were lots of kids (school holidays).
Room felt modern, clean and comfortable. Staff were really friendly.
Unique fish & bird viewing experiences occur organically while walking around the island.
Favourite organised event was the coral conservation tour (book in). Kayaking was great and didn't need to be pre-booked. Both were free and easily accessible
It’s a lovely place. The staff are fabulous - friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. We loved going kayaking and the food is good too. We thoroughly recommend it.

Beautiful island, helpful staff, good value for money with a wotif package (packages seem variable). Resort didn’t quite reach its potential (disused buildings, understaffed restaurant) …. but all good as that was reflected in the price. Kids and Mums loved it.
This is still a great destination. Rooms are clean and spacious and grounds well maintained. The breakfasts were the big let down. Hot foods, eggs, bacon, etc were cold from the servery and coffee often only luke warm. Otherwise a great place to stay.
Great family location, generally lots to do for the kids

Food is on pricy side and after couple.of days stayimg gets boring as they menu is same almost everyday.
Location is great for relaxing for family with kids.
Staff are nice, beautiful little Island & nice views, 3 nights is enough time to explore & enjoy, although rooms are somewhat dirty, buffet breakfast was a delight.
Staff were great! So friendly and really went out of their way to assist my family and I during our trip.

The staff make it, they are exceptional especially the marine biologists. Can’t thank them enough and the island has just enough to do for a 4 night stay to keep the kids busy.
We willl be back.
Hotel good, room was great overlooking the ocean, food options restrictive between breakfast and lunch, suggest the pool bar to has a 10-4 snack/lunch menu
The staff are amazing, always very professional, and well trained in hospitality.
The property is lovely with great facilities, excellent food and drinks at the restaurants and bars and the prices are very reasonable for the quality and service recieved.
