Island Magic was a brilliant - highly recommend it for a family holiday. Our 2 bedroom beachfront bungalow was extremely spacious and had everything we needed. The deck on the beachfront bungalow had the most beautiful views - so easy to sit back, relax and enjoy! The gardens were lovely and made sure all the bungalows were private.
The location of the resort was great - Mele is out of the hustle of Vila and close enough to travel in if supplies needed.
Our continental breakfast each day was very generous - lovely fresh local fruits, cereal, yoghurt, toast. The onsite restaurant was very nice quality food.
Our kids loved the volleyball court.
The snorkelling off the jetty was absolutely amazing. Unfortunately it is a bit exposed, so it isn't great if it is too windy, but when conditions are right, we don't think you could find a better spot. The coral is fantastic as were the huge variety and number of fish. It was paradise underwater - we have snorkelled the Great Barrier Reef a few times, but right off the jetty at Island Magic wins hands down!
The hotel manager, Gerry and her staff, were very helpful and made sure our stay was a very lovely family experience. Tina at breakfast was very thoughtful and polite and Joe, who kept the gardens looking beautiful, was great fun and helpful.
We can't rate this place high enough - we don't usually return to the same place for holidays, but may have to rethink that approach after visiting Island Magic.
