Hotel

👍👍 I just loved staying here 💙. We got the very private 'Bali' cottage, but honestly would've been happy with any of them. Warm and clean with a comfy king sized bed. The peace and tranquillity, the wildlife, the gorgeous birds we got to handfeed. John and Jenny were gracious and a good laugh. Ju...

👍👍 Great location, good value, clean and comfortable, very easy check in and close to the beach and restaurants. We used it as a base for visiting the sky rail/scenic railway and hartleys crocodile zoo. Only thing that would have made it better would be a TV with access to streaming like netflix/prime.

Reef Encounter

Tour operator

😠 BUYERS AWARE!!! I did my homework and chose Reef Encounter for 1) ensuite bathrooms 2) Food is suppose to be good 3) 10 dives in 3 days and boat moves twice a day. Well, most of it is true. Rooms are tired but clean. Aircon is good. Chef is very nice and although not gourmet food it's not bad. Boat...
