Tanoliu Holidays from NZ$1,479

We were a couple in our 50’s. We had a lagoon view villa, the room was clean, a bit dated. Had a safe, decent water pressure in the shower and a bath. The toilet door did not close and had no lock, weird but a non issue for us. Would have been nice to have wine glasses and bottle opener, maybe a plate and a knife so we could enjoy snack on our deck. But we made do. Has a swim up bar and a few pools. They looked nice but too many screaming kids, we felt should not have been allowed in the bar area. Buffet dinner $35 each was pretty good, lots of variety and themed nights. Buffet breakfast was free with the room, also very good. Enjoyed the fire show. There is a gym and kayaks, snorkelling is great. Take water shoes, you don’t want to step on the starfish or sea cucumber or sea snakes. It would have been nice to have a buggy service to the front gate, it’s far to walk in the heat. The staff were a mixture of helpful and rude. Most appeared to not enjoy their job and a simple request was too much trouble. The property is huge and is great for families and golfers. But not if you would prefer a smaller more intimate location. We enjoyed our stay but would not stay again. 7/10

Relaxing 5 night stay, great snorkelling, kayaking and walks to the local villages.

The 3-bedroom villa is spacious, easy to navigate, and well-equipped with laundry facilities and great kitchen amenities. Downstairs, two bedrooms open onto a beautiful semi-enclosed patio. Opening the glass slats lets in a wonderfully refreshing sea breeze. The bathrooms are comfortable and spacious, with excellent hot water. The downstairs shower features a semi-open-air design—while completely private and enclosed, it is open to the air above. If you prefer a traditional setup, you can easily use the fully enclosed upstairs bathroom instead. Katia was a fantastic host—approachable, friendly, and an excellent communicator. Location-wise, a convenience store is just a 30-second walk away, making it effortless to grab basic groceries and satisfy late-night cravings. While parking is available directly in front of the property, we chose to take the local buses to avoid parking hassles at popular tourist spots, which worked out seamlessly. Highly recommended due to the perfect better than expected beach access and ocean views.

Absoutely terrible! Kayaks unavailable, despite being advertised. Half the breakfast items available! Made to move rooms, two power outages, no WiFi. Completely disappointed. No compensation offered.

The 2 bed penthouse was great. Close to main town and the local ABM (supermarket). It has a full kitchen. Also just down the road was the waterfront bar a good place for seafood and a drink.
