Tropical Sands
An amazing place to stay, especially the beachfront villa overlooking the lagoon. A simple but adequate kitchen with a convenience store, servo and Villies burgers all within a few minutes walk. Bus service runs from just outside the property. The hosts are warm and friendly people.

The Islander Hotel
Looks nothing like the photo Music booms all day (11am - 11pm) from the Hula Bar No place to relax, no sun loungers, pool is small & really only suitable for children. Food was awful - except for the tuna sashimi Only good thing was reasonably priced drinks Would never stay again
