New ZealandLocated right on a beautiful beach with a lagoon. The best snorkelling ever! Warm calm water. White sandy beach. Great air conditioning in the rooms. Comfortable stay!
CanadaSituated on a beautiful lagoon- the beach was steps away from our room. It was pretty quiet so the beach was never crowded- no fighting for sunbeds etc and the palms provided great shade. The food was excellent - the buffet breakfast was really abundant with fresh pastries and fruit every day alongside all the regular toast/cereals etc. We had a very relaxing stay- which was just what we needed
