They gave me the best hospitality. I was healed by the hospitality of the staff. "They dealt with the trouble in the room as soon as possible, and it was very helpful." "If I stay at this hotel, I can relax and enjoy all the food, activities, rental car, rental cycle and events, so it was very good." It was helpful to have a pick-up service at the airport. I really recommend this hotel. You should definitely watch the dinner show!

Loved our stay in Niue! Staff were helpful, and great that the resort restaurant was open 7 days. Would have been great to have access to a vacuum or broom. During our stay as with visits to the beach and walks, the floor got a bit dirty.

We stayed March 2025. The resort is lovely and staff helpful & friendly. Our room was upstairs with lovely view over pool & ocean. The room was very comfortable and bathroom great size. Air conditioning worked well & was great to have available. Included breakfast was fantastic and all meals we had were delicious. Resort staff very good with info about tours & island life. 2 pools & outdoor areas very nice. Would definitely come back again- in fact already booked again & hope to see whales in July. Loved our time in Niue!

Overall is the best place to stay in Niue, just a little bit disappointed about the fishing charter booking, even though everything seems confirmed before we are heading to the wharf. Unfortunately, we couldn't get on the trip due to the miscommunication between the resort and the skipper who mentioned the resort hasn't come back to him on time which was unreal. It's a little pity of our holiday. Other than that, we highly recommend this resort to the others.

We stayed in apartment 3, the view's and the sound of the waves were amazing. Our only issues we had were... 1. The shower head was very dirty as was the toilet, we had not used any of these at this stage. 2. The attachment to the showerhead needed tightening as it spent most of our stay cleaning my feet, if you turned the pressure on to high it would lift the showerhead and spray water on to the walls out of the shower catching you off guard. 3. The pool was murky, pool deck broke under my husbands feet. The boards are rotting. 4. Get a good car. The potholes are challenging to say the least, you hear it takes an hour and a half, it took us 3 hours. All that aside, we would do it all over again, the people are friendly. The local kids performances were beautiful. Thank you for a great experience.

Dear friends

The staff was varied when I used this hotel. The staff who had a particularly good response was a pretty lady who responded at check-in. It is a white male staff who was disappointed. There is only one white man at the front desk, so you can see it as soon as you go. He has no basis but is confident, so if you become friends you will be able to have fun talking. The amenities are minimal. Please bring a toothbrush. It was saved that there was a dryer. The amount of hot water that can be used in the shower is sufficient. You have bath towels stored in the wash basin, so be careful not to wipe your body with the foot-drying mat. There is one taxi in the country and the old sergeant is fully operational, so I recommend you to rent a car. The hotel car hire is available for $ 55 for 24 hours. We ran for eight hours and the gasoline cost was $ 20. In my case, it was a face pass (just kidding) just by verbally confirming the possession of the license. B 特に対応がよかったスタッフはチェックイン時に対応してくれた可愛らしい女性でした。 残念だったのは白人男性スタッフです。白人男性は、フロントに一人しかいないので、行ったらすぐにわかります。彼は根拠はありませんが自信ありげなので、もしあなたが友達になれたら楽しく話ができるでしょう。 アメニティは最低限は揃っています。歯ブラシは持参してください。 ドライヤーがあったのは助かりました。 シャワーで使えるお湯の量は十分です。 あなたはバスタオルが洗面台に収納されています、くれぐれも足拭きマットで体を拭かないようにお気をつけください。 国内のタクシーは１台で老軍曹がフル稼働していますので、私から皆さんにはレンタカーをお勧めします。 ホテルのレンタカーは５５NZドルで２４時間使えます。 私たちは８時間走ってガソリン代は２０ドルでした。 私の場合は免許の所持を口頭で確認しただけで顔パス（冗談です）でした。 ちなみに、滞在中、一回も警官に会うことはありませんでしたし、実際にトラブルに遭遇することもありませんでした。 犬と鶏が騒ぎ立てることはあっても、ニウエで出会う人々は皆、朗らかです。 ニウエで会いましょう。

Central resort was good, however the apartment, where we stayed, was not serviced well. Housekeeping was hit and miss, no wifi in the room, the pool was not always clean.
