Little Polynesian Resort
As usual the rooms were very clean and the staff so very friendly and welcomed us back as longtime friends, which we are. The continental breakfasts were fresh and very well presented and the meals were up to standard so much so that we didn't venture away from Little Poly for meals.

Raina Holiday Accommodation
It totally served the purpose. Clean and tidy, friendly staff, and an excellent location. Not only just over the road from the beach, but a very popular restaurant was only a short walk away. We would go back again to Raina Holiday accommodation.

The Edgewater Resort & Spa
Perfect for our family holiday. Lots to see and do, snorkelling straight from the shore in front of the Edgewater. Cultural lessons about weaving, coconuts, traditional dance and drumming with Peter were fantastic.
