Heat pump control didn’t work even after being “fixed “. Same for safe. Windows above office wouldn’t close….very noisy. Food quality well below average. Samoan dancing was excellent. Fire dance best I have seen.

Excellent services from staff and very friendly. Room was clean and tidy. Beds comfortable. Only minor small thing on our second day, our room was cleaned, toiletries were topped up but not the coffee dispenser as there was no coffee when we checked in and our bed wasn't made. We didn't mind at all just thought it was strange that the bed wasn't made. But that didn't put us off all. Highly recommended.

Great friendly place to stay for a relaxing holiday. Lovely friendly staff. The dining options are a little limited with a small menu at the bar restaurant only, as the main restaurant has not reopened after Covid. Breakfast was good, rooms are spacious and comfortable. Walking distance to shops and other bars, and an easy, cheap cab ride to other restaurants.

The place was very nice and the customer service was really good however, the options on food and entertainment probably needs to be reviewed and upgraded? Overall, we had a good stay.

The hotel is nice but our stay wasn’t good
I don’t want to sound too negative about the hotel because many of the staff were nice, the room is spacious, and the location is great. But unfortunately our room was so very noisy that we couldn’t sleep. Our room was facing the front entrance, and both the front and the bathroom windows don’t shut the noise from outside. On top of the traffic noise and people chatting, we had this adjoining door, and could hear our neighbours all the time. There are some maintenance issues in the room and the hotel grounds. Still it is a nice hotel, and we would have enjoyed our stay. But the noise at night really threw us off. It was very unfortunate.

The staff were friendly love them. The food was horrible had dinner my first night the fish & chips was awful. The breakfast was even worst. The Fiafia Night was a waste of money wasn’t a full house by the time we got to the food the pig ran out. Food looked like leftovers from the day before. The room was nice but the beddings smelled even the towels. I checked out 2 days earlier couldn’t take. The staffs were friendly and very welcoming. The problem lays with the management team.

This hotel has lovely gardens, swimming pool and high quality rooms, but the food and restaurant service were terrible. Very limited menu (almost no meals without meat or fish) and our orders were mixed up. The poorly cooked food came out cold and the staff seemed indifferent to our concerns.
