Our stay with Moana Sands was almost perfect. We booked the beachfront resort bus due to delays in renovations we were unable to stay here however Moana sands provided accommodation in their beachfront apartments which we have stayed in before and as usual was amazing. From location to staff everything was amazing

Nothing everything was amazing

"A real gem"

10.0

Our 4th stay at the beautiful Beachfront Hotel. We absolutely love it. It is comfortable with a location very hard to beat. Right on the beach. Breakfast is basic but not lacking. The bar and restaurant staff are an absolute asset to the hotel. We look forward to our next stay.

"No smoke detector"

8.0

Great hotel in a great location. A short walk (~10 min) for snorkelling. Good equipment provided by the hotel at no cost. Also a couple kayaks available. Large rooms. Clean. bright. Coffee & fridge & safe in the room. My two comments would be that we noticed there was a base on the ceiling, but no smoke detector. When I mentioned it to reception, she acknowledged yes, no detectors. Made me think none of the rooms have one. Disappointing and dangerous. Also, breakfast provided is very basic continental. Brew coffee, tea, juice, 2 cereals, a fruit, yogurt, and toast. Can order eggs or whatever from a menu at your cost.

"The Moana Sands Group always delivers the Perfect Holiday in Paradise"

10.0

The Moana Sands Group is always a great choice. Across all the properties the Staff are amazing. The Moana Sands Group as a whole are blessed to have some of the best Staff you will ever come across anywhere. They really seem to attract and employ people with that X Factor and this goes a long way to making your holiday just that much more special when you look back and realise how they all went above and beyond to make you feel welcome and valued. And any of the properties in the group deliver the perfect holiday as they each cater for different tastes and budgets. I have personally stayed at the Beachfront Hotel many times. This time we were upgraded to the Lagoon Resort in Muri as the Beachfront Hotel was undergoing renovations. And we got to experience a more luxurious experience which was awesome. The Resort Manager also took us on a tour of the Villas and Apartment which also look great if you want that option. Trust me on this, which ever option you choose you won’t be disappointed.

There is honestly nothing that I did not like
