    Not really a bad thing but when it rained, it poured and when it poured, no chance of getting to reception/foyer without getting wet as we did not have umbrellas. Abit of rain didn’t hurt no one but dressed to go somewhere can be abit of a drench after the walk. But a suggestion to hopefully supply umbrellas that guests can use as part of the stay, incase of rainy days :) as we don’t usually travel with umbrellas to the tropics 💞 overall can not fault you so Thankyou for a beautiful memorable stay

    Peaceful and quiet

    The food we had for dinner was rather disappointing for a resort, one of the most basic meals I had during my entire trip. It would be better if the menu were more limited with dishes that the kitchen has truly mastered. The room was also set up as if we were a couple but we were friends travelling together that weren't planning to share the main bed. Breakfast starts too late if you want to make it to Nadi Airport for a flight in the morning.

    The location is really beautiful and the staff were friendly, attentive and welcoming. We enjoyed swimming in the pool and gazing out at the beach bonfire started by one of the staff on the Friday evening while we enjoyed our dinner.

    Limited amenities in bure Dim lighting TV was difficult to use with no instructions Wifi was a problem. Bed not made up on arrival and was made to feel it was my fault for asking for it to be done. In fact it wasn’t done. All I got was a sheet and I had to make it myself - on the first night.

    Great property. Lovely beach. Bures were clean and overall pretty good.

    Be aware that the location is 20 km east of Sigatoka town, even though the Booking app indicates the site is very close to Sigatoka. This caused significant inconvenience for me, as my driver had to travel all the way from Sigatoka to pick me up the following morning. Additionally, the food was expensive compared to Suva.

    Located next to the beach, the property offers a lovely setting and a beach with lots of corals overlooking pacific ocean. While swimming can be challenging due to the corals, the beach itself is stunning. The property is well-maintained, featuring beautiful little cabanas. Unfortunately, I was downgraded to a cabana at the far end due to an issue with the one I had originally booked, even though I had paid for a better option.

    provide cheaper bottled water & cheaper snacks - they was very expensive. Not enough beach towels. There were a few times when I asked for a fresh towel and it couldn't be provided at the time. More variety (or changes) on the menu would be helpful. Somewhere to wash the sand off your feet before you went into the bungalow or an outside shower to wash off the salt water.

    wonderful friendly staff, lovely location, quiet relaxing resort, good facilities.

    The location being somewhat isolated means to get to and from the main tourist areas and enjoy the tours that are on offer requires a lot of time travelling in a bus or taxi which is a real pain. The resort prices are also quite expensive for food and beverages. The Wi Fi should be a one time log on and free to guests. Also paying a deposit for the tv remote of $250 Fiji is outrageous - nowhere else in the world have I come across this. Also a welcome pack in the room with information on local tours, activities etc, plus a bottle of water wouldn’t go astray.

    Location on the coral coast is excellent, the access to the water and views from the Bura. The food was generally good, service at times was slow, basic continental breakfast but fruit was full of flavour. The resort is small but that is what makes it appealing and more personal with guests and staff alike.

    WARWICK HOTELS NEED TO LIFT THEIR GAME IN REGARD TO SUPPLIES AT THE RESORT. THERE WAS A CONSTAINT SHORT SUPPLY OF BATH AND BEACH TOWELS. INCLUDED BREAKFAST NEEDS A BIT OF A LIFT AND LACKS BASICS LIKE FRESH COLD WATER AND SKIM MILK. FRUIT WAS AT TIMES LIMITED AND OCCASIONALLY LACKED QUALITY. TWO CEREAL CHOICES - COCO POPS AND CORNFLAKES. MAYBE SOME HEALTHIER OPTIONS LIKE SOME YOGURT AND FRESH JUICES. THE ROAD NOISE AT THE BACK CABINS IS OF CONCERN, LUCKILY, WE WERE BEACH-FRONT AND IT DIDNT EFFECT US TOO MUCH. THE DISTANCE FROM ALL ACTIVITIES WAS A REAL ISSUE, TAKING 1 3/4 HOURS TO REACH NADI WHERE MOST ACTIVITIES / DAYTRIPS DEPART. THERE WERE VERY FEW OTHER RESTAURANTS CLOSE TO THE RESORT, AND NONE WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE. PRICES OF DRINKS WAS TOO HIGH, ESPECIALLY WHEN COMPARING TO OTHER OUTLETS THAT WERE OF SUPERIOR RATING AND QUALITY.

    STAFF ARE AMAZING AND CAN'T DO ENOUGH FOR YOU. VERY FRIENDLY AND ACCOMMODATING. THE BEACH WAS BEAUTFIUL WHEN THE TIDES WERE RIGHT. THE VIEWS FROM THE RESORT ARE BEAUTIFUL WHEN THE SUN IS SHINING. THE GROUNDS OF THE RESORT WERE KEPT IMMACULATE BY THE STAFF, BUT THERE NEEDS TO BE SOME LEVELLING. I IMAGINE SOMEONE WITH LIMITED MOBILITY WOULD FIND NEGOTIATING THE TERRAIN VERY CHALLENGING. SECURITY ALSO DO AN AMAZING JOB OF MAINTAINING THE SERENITY OF THE RESORT. IF YOU ARE AFTER A HOLIDAY WHERE YOU CAN SIT BACK RELAX, SWIM AND DO NOTHING, THIS IS THE PERFECT RESORT. THIS RESORT COULD BE AN ABSOLUTE GEM WITH MORE INVESTMENT AND A FEW TWEAKS IN MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS AND RESOURCES.

    We had issues with getting clean towels when we needed them. The property needs some maintenance done and updates made, also more staff working in the kitchen to allow for food service to be done a bit more timely.

    The property has so many good things going for it. It’s a beautiful location and has a lot of potential

    Breakfast - ordered the French toast was very disappointing, needs to improved. The white bread not very nice. It would be great if you served coconut water for breakfast instead of apple juice.. It would be great if you had water shoes for hire for a few dollars instead we had to go to town to buy some. But all good.

    The gluten free bread was better than the white bread.. Thanks for having Vegemite it was a surprise. The paw paw, pineapple nice to have tropical fruit it was delicious. My favorite part was the Kokoda demonstration and coconut toasties which you should have on your menu.. I wish I had tried it days before but there was no advertising just the information on the board.

    Rooms needs to be cleaned a bit better, as much effort as they put in to raking the leaves outside. i.e cleaner towels and cutlery.

    Beach access to pristine ocean waters of the coral coast. Directly in front of your rooms.

    The villas are situated overlooking the beach which was fantastic. However, we were very surprised by the amount of broken glass in the sand along the whole stretch of the beach.

    The quiet location is exactly what we were looking for. The villas were very clean, the staff were welcoming and helpful.
