Chamarel Holidays from NZ$2,622

Lovely hotel, albeit a bit tired in places. Staff were excellent and we'd recommend the hotel to any future guests.

The area around was nice. Property fairly clean. Great weather. No complaints here. Service on another hand was hit or miss. Bartenders were great. Wait staff at the buffet were from nice and helpful to forgetful what you asked for to zero interest. There was a male server who completely ignored us two mornings in the row to the point that did not bring coffee not even acknowledged of saying good morning. We sat to the different station from there on. Food was ok. The only edible meat was the lamb and rotisserie chicken. Any seafood was severely overcooked. Couldn’t cut thru beef or pork with the steak knife. The grand finally was that front desk forgot to call for the taxi so I had to ask them when it didn’t show up on time. Good thing taxis were camping out just outside of the hotel. All in all it was OK. We made the best of it.

Everything is okay unless it’s packed, for some odd reason Thursdays, Fridays and Saturday’s lunch and dinner gets extremely packed to the point it’s almost unbearable but every other night it is very calm. Not sure why there is always that consistency as i stayed for over two weeks and couldn’t figure it out. Shout out to Imran though, great guy really helpful.

Preskil Island resort was such a gem for our honeymoon. Had everything we wanted. The beach is absolutely amazing. They had inclusive boating activities like canoeing, pedal boat etc which made it easier for us to enjoy the ocean without leaving the resort. Very close to the airport as well. We stayed there for the first half of our trip and returned for the last night just cause we absolutely loved the place. Highly recommend for anyone.
