Positive: Big beach which is really interesting with lava formations right on the beach. Large schools of fish and the occasional turtle right next to the beach and beautiful corals. Can be dangerous at high tide though. Lots of family-sized accommodation. The villas are HUGE. Really great food from the El e carte menu. Very tidy grounds with no rubbish. Water filters were great to have. Maybe include in each room? FANTASTIC gym. Really surprised how new and well equipped this was.
Negative: Only instant coffee for breakfast unless you order an espresso 🙁 Pool area really needs a tiled and shaded area. Maybe convert the lawn next to the pools for this. Lounge furniture in our villa was very uncomfortable. It's outdoor furniture with wafer thin cushions. Could spread out the breakfast buffet as you need to queue just to get a drink.
Summary: A unique experience and great for families and snorkelers

Positive: The resort is lovely. We had an upstairs garden room with lovely views. There is plenty of entertainment, and the Wednesday evening singing and dancing show is not to be missed! Karaoke night was fun! Snorkelling in front of the resort is fine but limited. It is very close to the Giant Clams where you can see turtles and the huge clams. The rooms are well appointed and comfortable. The inclusive breakfast is adequate. The cleanliness and staff are great.
Negative: The resort is fairly expensive, particularly food and drinks. I don't agree with the banning of fins while snorkelling to protect the coral. In my opinion, using fins stopped me from touching the coral when currents took me close, so I used them.
Summary: Lovely place to visit

Positive: The breakfast was delicious 🥰 definitely my highlight oh and the view of the place, especially the waves at the beach 🏝️ was a beautiful scenery. My kids favourite was the pools
Negative: The room wasn’t ready when we arrived after 2pm so we were late to the 3pm wedding that we were there for, the Tv for my kids to stay in the room wasn’t working and when I asked for someone to come fix it, receptionist said sorry the tv’s all on my block are out unfortunately so I requested another room then they said they’ll send someone around which they finally did an hour later, the phones were not plugged in for us to contact reception so we had to walk all the way to the front with issues. someone did say they were going to bring the wire connection for the phone but never did. The wifi passwords that were given kept cutting out especially from the wedding venue at the resort & the reception area for wedding & even in our room. And then we were promised a beach view but could only see the car park & back of houses.
Summary: With the issues, location, distance of my room to everything at the resort, not the close view of the beach as promised

Positive: Fabulous resort. Crystal clear water. Brilliant dining hall. Best fire dancing I've seen at the fia fia. Beach front rooms well worth the extra.

Positive: There was a great variety of food such as Samoan staples and western options available at breakfast.
Negative: The instant coffee provided was not good quality, it tasted like soy sauce. Perhaps offering CCK or another local grown product would be satisfactory.
Summary: The rooms and facilities haven't changed much in the last 10 years.
