"Perfect location, great staff, the best tropical paradise"

10.0

All rooms have a beach view, tidy and comfortable. Nothing flashy but all the basics you need. Absolutely perfect location with the best snorkeling out the front. Since staying on the island we realized we were lucky with this location as not all beachfront properties have good swimming let alone great snorkeling.

"My engagement experience was wonderful, unique, and unforgettable. Thank you, Moana Sand."

10.0

I must begin by mentioning the beautiful beach that the hotel offers its guests. It is undoubtedly one of the best beaches on the island. Titikaveka is a beautiful beach, and Moana Sand has two beachfront hotels in this location. Secondly, I must highlight the service. The service staff, from reception to housekeeping, restaurant service, kitchen and bar staff, are first-class, 5-star quality. They really set the bar high. Before travelling, I requested certain services in advance, and they went above and beyond the call of duty. This undoubtedly places the hotel in a very high tourist category, not because of the quality of its facilities on the island (which are excellent) but because of its hospitality. I must highlight "Marvin" in the restaurant, who provides first-class, quality service. His hospitality and dedication were incredible, right up until the end of our stay. The barman was also excellent, with his kindness and dedication to us, as we were spending a very special moment at the hotel (our wedding engagement stay). They were really attentive on this occasion and gave the best service to take care of our stay. They have excellent taxi contacts at reception and offer assistance for any occasion. You can purchase Wi-Fi at the hotel, which lasts for several days, but I recommend purchasing a SIM card at the airport if you have time. Please try the BBQ pork ribs, which are especially delicious. The chef is local and plays incredible music. The cocktail bar has the best piña colada on the island. I would like to highlight that they have kayaks, snorkels, and many other equipment for sailing and diving in the beautiful Titikaveka beach. Please come to this hotel, you will have an incredible time and you will be treated like you are at home, with warmth and a level of service that is difficult to find elsewhere in the world. Moana Sand, thank you very much for existing and giving us an exceptional stay at the Moana Sand Front Beach Hotel.

I have nothing to say that I didn't like, even to say that the facilities have more things and details than expected, such as a clean water fountain to wash your feet before entering the room. They have a beautiful terrace and always replenish hotel accessories and items when you request them. The truth is that everything was perfect, nothing to say.

"Absolutely phenomenal stay - 5+ stars recommend"

10.0

Everything about this accommodation ticked the boxes. The facility is dated BUT the rooms, restaurant & other areas felt so, so clean. They also have everything you need at the hotel. The outdoor swimming equipment is well equipped. The food at the restaurant was very, very reasonably priced & the best we had on the island. The housekeeping & and restaurant team are a phenomenal group of people & definitely add to this amazing spot. The beach here is also the best on the island for swimming and snorkeling. We will be back to stay here again.
