The rooms were a little dated, pillows were all a bit mouldy and needed replacing or a good bleach soak. The bathrooms needed a little work but they’re not bad. Again, it’s a humid environment so everything is wet alot, the rooms and curtains smelled a little damp. But otherwise totally fine. The food. The food was limited, if you’re coming, bring snacks. Or go to the convenience store in Vao. The breakfast was ok, we had snacks a couple of times but they stop serving at 5pm, and dinner is only at the restaurant from 7pm. The food was not great. Only a few options - nothing vegetarian/vegan. Would loved to have seen more simple local cuisine. Some simple skewers or fresh grilled fish etc. the mains need to take into account that sometimes less is more! The cocktails particularly when the male bartender was working were great!

Location was AMAZING!

The restaurants need more extensive menus. We were a bit disappointed with the food.

The location is amazing, with bungalows nestled just behind a stunning palm tree lined white sandy beach.... the tropical beach of your dreams! The staff are all friendly and very helpful. There are plenty of activities if you want to be active - snorkelling, kayaking, swimming, walks, boat tours - or just soak up the warmth and serenity of the beach.

The bathroom in our bungalow was a little bit outdated than our friends bungalow. Would be great to be more consistent.

Amazing location and would definitely go back again. The food was also 👌

Lighting in the room was a bit low, the evening dinner was not well cooked, my piece of parsnip was cold, old roasted, stringy and dry...could have done with a small shop for food supplies on location

Lovely beach with excellent access to it, great for kayaking and snorkelling, many tropical fish in this bay, better than Oro for snorkelling, the room was well laid out and comfortable

The property needed general maintenance for some things that were worn & torn from use i.e. communal toilets in restaurant area, the door would jam and the rubbish was old & rusty, the plug to the 2nd sink in my bangalow bathroom was not working properly and would not drain, the mini bar fridge was dirty on the outside, the buffet breakfast was average, the tea, coffee and milk was not topped up and I had to request for more. The sun lounges were old and manky, some I did not want to use. I feel for the amount of money I paid per night, these things should be kept on top of On arrival was not welcomed with a drink personally from the staff and had to help myself.

Location was excellent.

The Lodge is aging, so little things were a bit broken (bathroom window, door to the bathroom was stiff). The dinner at the restaurant was okay, but there were little options as everything was booked.

Oure Lodge is in a gorgeous location. It has lots of almost beach fales/cabins and the set up is very beautiful. It is right on Kanumera Bay which is the most gorgeous bay, with a gorgeous sunset. Staff were nice, although really recommend boning up on your french as it is difficult to get by without.

There was nothing we did not like.

On arrival, we were greeted with smiles and soon after riding with our porter to our bungalow. The natural setting and facilities were great. Our dinner for the night was one of the best we had in New Caledonia, although we had to wait a while because it was a busy night. It was the evening of Christmas Day. Our only wish was to stay an extra night. We only stayed one night.

Clearly they were understaffed the first 4 days out of 5 we were there. The restaurant service was terrible and staff didn't maintain the breakfast dishes - often they were all out of eggs, orange juice and the fruit of the day. Service during our last lunch there was great and there was always someone at the reception. We weren't able to check-in until 2:30pm and then were told that we had to check out promptly at 10am. Many large (seemingly friendly) dogs roaming around the resort.

Kanumera bay is beautiful with good snorkeling just in front and kayaks available for use. The bungalows are spacious with good undercover balconies. There is great take away pizza next door at Naitawatch and food and service at Kou-Bugny was great.

Breakfast was super poor. The lady at the reception forgot to order transfer for us, and didn’t provide the information about hotel services.

The location, beach, coral reef-amazing. The bungalow was great. The bartender knew his job)) great cocktails.

As vegetarians we have found New Caledonia doesn't really offer many options at all. The 2 restaurants had no vegetarian options. We mainly ate fries and cheese paninis, breakfast had a reasonable selection of food. But we didn't care because it was such a beautiful place.

Absolutely beautiful setting - paradise. Really peaceful, a great place to get away from it all.

I got a bit lost every time I tried to go back to my cabin (especially in the dark) so would have liked more signage. The food offered on site was good but didn’t vary over the days. It would have been nice to see some simple fish dishes as well. As a single traveller I was a bit lonely as staff were not really interested in any conversation beyond the basics and at mealtimes there was no communal seating to encourage socialising.

Location is amazing and the individual huts are quite nice.

The accommodation was comfortable but furnishing a little tired. The breakfast was very basic and some of the staff seemed a little sad and tired too.

The location was amazing, such a beautiful little bay with opportunities to go on tours, snorkel and kayak, visit other restaurants and go for long walks along the beaches and forest. Very peaceful and tranquil. The restaurant on site was lovely for dinner.

Staff was kind, but somewhat clumsy and unmotivated in handling ordinary daily tasks like check-in, tour organisation or car rental ! They arranged a car for us but it didn't work! They informed us that there is no availability any more - 20 min. after the scheduled pick-up the next day. No apologies whatsoever, no further assistance...

Fantastic beach, very comfortable bungalows, breakfast 5+!

Gorgeous property and incredible staff! There really was no shortcoming---if I HAD to pick something, I would've liked to have a fan in the room---so we didn't have to use the aircon/heat pump at night. But that's really it---the place is amazing!
