Very clean property - easy check in although the instructions could have been clearer (we were advised to check in after 2PM but when we arrived, the reception said they are closed from 2PM in winter so this was a little confusing). Other than that, fantastic stay!

Rather steep site with many steps down and up to and from our unit. Only found out no services available the day we arrived including food that we anticipated getting onsite so had to travel elsewhere to get something to eat. No reception open on arrival or at several other times we tried.

Beautiful location, room for improvement.
Room was fantastic, but get a top floor, we had kids staying upstairs and the floors are thin, their running was extremely loud. Palm Beach down the road is beautiful, with some great walks. We tried to eat at the restaurant at 7.15pm but it had closed early because it was a quiet night, we at down the bottom of the hill at the Arcadia, which was a fantatic feed.

We liked the privacy and quietness and clean fresh unit we stayed in. The steps down were a little steep to access unit re being in our 70's. The dining area was lovely with great outlook. there was an awful outside light on the unit next door which shone directly into our windows at night. It would be better if it didn't stay on all night but was sensor only and switched off when no one entering the units during the night. Other than that it was a nice stay and perfect for our needs.

Not recommended
The island and resort are a stunning setting. The cocktails were good and the staff were friendly but unable to handle complaints. I room was on a very steep hill down from and therefore back up to reception and pool area. The room was clean and spacious but very dated. WiFi was adequate and balcony had beautiful views. Being a bank holiday weekend, the resort hosted a loud party by the pool. The pool area needs maintenance and the spa was dirty. We paid over NZ$100 to use the private hottub but they brought us the Prosecco included in the price and left it unopened some way from us. The private hot tub had also been used by some off the party guests so it got cold quickly. The pool area changing rooms were also dirty the next morning at 11:30. When we complained the staff just shrugged. Apparently breakfast was included on Sunday if you stayed on Saturday night but we weren’t told this until Monday on checkout. They did give us breakfast instead on Monday but only a choice of 3 basic things with no coffee included which we had to pay extra for. I would come back to the island but not this hotel.
