    No gym, in use as a small conference room. Starting point for the high walking route difficult to find.

    Nice retreat, a short ferry trip from mainland. Rooms are truly spacious and outfitted with good quality chairs, bathroom equipment and balcony lounge bed.

    There are too many rocks in the sea, especially to the small sand bank and the beach behind the island. Not enough sandy beaches. It would also be nice to have a shower/rinsing place at the beach at the back of the island. Maybe also add a slide at the jetty, just an idea.

    A lot of activities to do

    The gym equipment wasn’t working properly and didn’t seem to have working air conditioning.

    Location was cool with the surrounding beaches and hiking area over the hill. Lovely room with nice balcony and good views.

    A world class holiday resort with all comforts that is within 30 minutes drive away from the city

    An earlier check in instead of 2 pm would be great as first ferry leaves at 10 am for the 20 minute ferry ride from the mainland to the resort.. otherwise, half the day is gone by the time one checks in..bags are stored and one can enjoy other services in the meantime, but nicer to put your bags away in your room on check in at the resort.

    Location..an idylic island resort with all resort comfort like clean rooms, beds and services, including restaurants, bar and spa, pool, scuba dive facilities, kayaks..nice sea breeze, ocean views, fresh sea air..ideal for relaxation or corporate away events.

    Excellent island resort close to Port Moresby. Some pest control might be warranted though.

    Nothing really significant. It's unfortunate that my room had quite a few cockroaches in it (part of the main building) so some control would be good.

    The island is a fabulous location so close to Port Moresby. Apart from the obvious diving possibilities around the island, it has some excellent walks on the ridge and around the shore. The hotel and rooms are very modern. The airport pickup and drop off to the Tahira jetty went smoothly.

    Service at the restaurant was slow and room was clean but not completely. In the balcony furniture had some buay red marks.

    Beautiful spot. We enjoyed the different activities. Nature around the rooms is impressive. From the room we could even see small manta ray. Staff was flexible and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay.

    The breakfast was excellent. For dinner I ordered the lobster thermidor which wasn't quite up to my expectations. The cost of wine was very high.

    I liked the capacity to walk, swim, snorkel and kayak without any security concerns. The snorkelling around Lion Island exceeded expectations.

    The Air conditioning was poor, even after following the instruction of keeping the balcony door shut as this turns of the Air conditioning it still failed to bring the humidity down or the temperature down to a comfortable level. THe Food prices were very high for very ordinary food. the Bar prices are double of what they are anywhere else in PNG and considering this is only a few minutes out of the Capital City transport is not a factor.

    Staff were very polite and Helpful. The Overall Surroundings were peaceful and relaxing. The room was exceptionally clean and well appointed. If you are going some where to relax then this is the place.

    This is not a good place for swimming in the ocean as it is shallow and rocky. While the breakfast was good I found the other meals not very appealing.

    Nicely presented room with a comfortable bed and good shower. The staff are helpful. Scenic location. Very good breakfast included. Enjoyed lazing by the pool and kayaking.
