The location is great and the snorkelling is excellent. The staff are fantastic. The resort needs some tender loving care. The gardens are well tendered, but the rest of the infrastructure needs work. Food is a bit hit and miss but there is a Beach Bar nearby thank goodness.

Property is quite run down. Had a beachfront bungalow but the stairs leading down to the beach were so overgrown with weeds they couldn't be used. It would have taken an hour to give it a tidy up and make it usable, but they just hadn't done it. The decking of the cabin was rotten and dangerous. I stepped through the decking a couple of times and left (more) holes in it. The water coming out of the cold tap was black and there was no hot water on the first 2 nights. Hot water was adequate on 3rd night and cold water was clear on 3rd night. Staff were lovely and very helpful. Food from the restaurant was good.

The location is superb, the staff are very friendly and helpful and everything needed is provided. My only minor criticism is that bunk beds are not suitable twin share for seniors.

The staff at Hideaway are just lovely- so friendly and helpful and so tolerant . We stayed in the spacious family bungalows. The glass bottom boat and snorkel tour are great for familiarising your family with life on the reef and then you can explore on your own later. Only suggestion to make would be to give all visitors including day visitors even a 5 minute talk about the Marine Sanctuary and how fragile life is on the reef. Watching unmanaged kids as well as adults crush and kill coral was a bit up setting who didn’t understand the damage the were causing. Maybe mark off an area for beginners so they don’t cause further harm following cyclone with poor finning techniques on the coral. We hope to return one day- this place and beautiful staff were perfect for us and our budget

The snorkelling is great and staying at the property allows you to have the reef to yourself for a couple of hours in the morning. The beach bungalow we stayed in has a great view and balcony but is old, no tv, internet available at the office but not the room and they give the first couple of days free then charge after that to use internet. One restaurant on the island, food can take a while so get orders in early and brekky costs a bit so recommend bringing some wheet bix and milk (adds up with the kids), but liked the place and the local people are lovely. There's a little shop off the island near the village which has waters, soft drink biscuits etc for better prices.
