Our stay was quite mixed at the resort. While we faced some significant issues with the booking and staff communication, there were glimpses of helpfulness from certain team members that made the experience somewhat bearable. The location is beautiful, but be prepared for some inconsistencies in service and standards.

Rooms

We initially had a twin room, which felt cramped for our family of four. The room was clean and tidy, but nothing spectacular. The king suite had a musty smell and the overwater villa we eventually moved to had a leaking shower. Rating: 5

Service

The service varied greatly; there were moments of frustration due to miscommunications, but some staff members like Rashmi and Randy were truly exceptional and went out of their way to help. Overall, it was a hit-or-miss experience. Rating: 6

Location

The resort is situated in a stunning part of Vanuatu, and we loved being able to explore the beautiful surroundings. It's a short distance from Port Vila, making shops and restaurants easily accessible. Rating: 9

Dining

Dining was another area of contention. While there were some decent meals, we had to argue over what was included in our package. Overall, it was okay but certainly not stress-free. Rating: 5

Facilities

The resort has nice pools and a lovely atmosphere for relaxation, but some areas seemed in need of upkeep, which was disappointing. Rating: 7

Overall, I had a decent stay at the resort. While the location and lagoon view were stunning, the service was hit or miss, and I found some aspects lacking. The rooms were comfortable but showed signs of age. I enjoyed the breakfast options but found the dining experience could be better. A bit more attention from management could enhance the overall experience.

We stayed for three nights in an overwater villa to celebrate our anniversary. While we had a rocky start with our room not being what we expected, the staff went above and beyond to make our stay special. The location is stunning, offering both tranquility and beautiful views. However, there were some hiccups with meal service that were a bit frustrating.

Our stay at the resort was a mixed experience. The rooms were generally clean and provided comfort, but they felt a bit dated and could use some updates. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, making our time more enjoyable. However, the dining options, particularly for dinner, were quite bland, and we found better choices nearby. The overall facilities were appealing, especially the pools and the beach area, but we faced some issues with accessibility for older guests.

We had a wonderful family vacation at this hotel. The family suite was fantastic, offering plenty of space for us and the kids. However, some areas felt a bit dated, and minor issues like the musty smell in the rooms detracted from the overall experience. The staff were always friendly and the breakfast was delightful, but dining in the resort could be hit or miss when it comes to quality. Overall, it was a relaxing getaway with great amenities for kids.
