Positive: Nice relaxed island. Staff uber polite. Opposite the Beach Bar, Mele and so very easy to go and see the Bar's Fire and Circus show. Stayed in the dormitories and staff shared the tourists out between all the dorm rooms and so I was on my own in the room for 2 nights out of 4. Nice and useful drying line hung up.
Negative: I can't understand if they have dorm rooms why they don't have a self catering area. They only had one small fridge - though it was never full. They had some lovely fish in their waters but the majority of the coral was dead. Could be because of the 2024 earthquake?? The underwater post office wasn't operational which was a disappointment.
Summary: Relaxed and Easy Going Resort
