    Beautiful gardens, spacious beachfront bures and wonderful, friendly staff.
    • Leisure trip

    • Bungalow with Garden View
    • Stayed 5 nights

    Breakfast was a definite let down, especially as we'd paid extra. Very limited offerings (cereal, toast, juice, coffee, fruit). Would be good to have some more options (eggs!). Food overall was pretty basic and not the freshest, with the exception of a wonderful and generous grilled fish option.

    Fantastic little resort at the budget end of the market. Super friendly staff. Really spacious bures set in stunning gardens, right on the beach. Wonderful quality snorkelling (and much better than outside some of the bigger resorts). Great facilities and fun afternoon and evening activities.

    I am reluctant to highlight the issues at this resort as I suspect it may impact negatively on the beautiful staff there. This resort has a priority of wanting to squeeze every cent from you but this definitely comes from management pressure, while they seem to exploit their staff and pay them peanuts. 😉 they could definitely benefit from training the cooks better. This is on management, not the staff.

    Loved the location and most of the staff. The bungalow is very comfortable and clean and met our needs. Very restful, special place.

    Not the greatest breakfast. Very very limited. Extremely high prices for food. Not the best. The fact this resort is owned by Chinese. They capitalise on the tourists and pay their beautiful staff crumbs. Dear owner, please look after your staff. They are the life blood of your resort.

    Loved the staff & housekeepers here. They are the most beautiful, attentive staff! They wish to welcome you & connect with you. Shout out to barman & Tooey. And to any other special staff I've forgotten.

    Overpriced food and drinks. No shade around the pool. Karaoke, this was the staff doing karaoke no guests participated. Loud terrible music on repeat.

    Could snorkel off beach if the tide was right. Beach front. Quiet location. Can catch the local bus into Sigatoka.

    The villa with garden view is too close to the main road, Queen street, so at night there are so many trucks coming and going though, I did not really have a good night sleep :(

    The place is quite clean, spacious, right in front of the beach. Stuff is very friendly, Norman’s singing lighted up the place in the evening.

    It’s not really near anything else. So you have to get taxis everywhere. So get your driver to stop at the supermarket on your way from the Airport to the Resort. Otherwise it’s a $60 round trip going back there later on.

    Our hut was so close to the beach (All the huts are)The view is amazing! It’s a really beautiful spot.

    It is in a quiet location with not much "action" outside of the resort.

    A delightfully quiet and unpretentious resort with very friendly staff. The location of the bungalow was perfect, overlooking a grassed area with coconut palms, before the beach and ocean.

    The food situation really should be improved. We waited two hours for our food to come out at times. The breakfast is very minimal - toast fruit and cereal only.

    We adored our stay at this super relaxing and fantastically located property. It was nice and quiet and peaceful. Doesn’t get much better than watching the sunset over the ocean from your own private plunge pool. We had a wonderful driver who helped us to plan out our activities because we sadly only had such a short amount of time.

    We paid $25pp for a continental breakfast. It was a pretty sad continental breakfast featuring white bread, jams, 3 basic cereals and fruit. Out of everywhere we stayed, this was the most ‘premium’ accomodation yet the breakfast was similar selection to that of a hostel. I don’t mind a simple breakfast but at that price, I’d expect some pastries and yoghurt thrown in!

    Loved the private bure! Bliss location, room was comfortable, surroundings are beautiful and pool was great.
