    I loved its exceptionally clean and accommodating rooms.

    I was happy with hotel's marvellous and awesome location in the warm ocean. Location: the property was just next door to # 3 of the world's top beachfront bars, island and a convenience store and gas station. Had a relaxing stay in February, no complains at all...

    Review of Aroa Beachside Resort

    I had a wonderfully pleasant stay at Aroa Beachside Resort in February. The studio was incredibly comfortable, featuring a cozy bed along with a multi-channel TV, a dining area, and a sitting area. I enjoyed the great views of the beach all around the resort. The location is perfect, with everything just a short walk away.

    I had such a lovely stay at Aroa Beachside! The small number of units created a warm and friendly atmosphere, perfect for solo travelers like me. I enjoyed the communal breakfasts, where I got to meet new people and get recommendations for places to visit. The location right on an all-tide snorkelling beach was very nice, and they even had snorkelling gear available to borrow.

    The location was perfect, right on the lagoon, with beautiful views of the sunset. The hotel facilities were great, with kayaks and watersport equipment available for use by guests. The breakfast was substantial, with fresh fruit and warm muffins, and the staff were friendly and accommodating, providing recommendations for local activities and restaurants.

    It was all superb.

    Located right on the beach, the rooms offer breath-taking views of the warm ocean. the beach is perfect for those who want to escape from the city life and go snorkelling. Apart from the location, the staff were friendly and offered great service to the guests. the outdoor area with hammocks was a great addition, and kayaks and other water sports equipment were available for the guests.

    One aspect could be improved, as guests reported that the beds were quite hard, causing discomfort for those with back problems.

    The location was amazing, with stunning sunsets and great snorkeling available right on the doorstep. The hosts provided plenty of helpful information about the island and the local area. The atmosphere was truly laid back and relaxing, and we enjoyed the live music events and the funky bar with its cool vibe.

    We were a little disappointed that there was no internet included, and we found the cost of the drinks and bar food rather high. some of the snorkeling equipment provided could have been in better condition or had more options available.

    This hotel is a true gem! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm smiles and a fragrant garland of fresh frangipani. The location is absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views of the ocean and sunsets that will leave you speechless. The rooms are bright, clean, and well-equipped, providing everything you need for a comfortable stay. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure your needs are met and are always ready to share a laugh and engage with you. Plus, the snorkeling right in front of the hotel is simply amazing, with an abundance of colorful fish to swim with.

    We couldn't find anything to fault during our stay. Everything was simply perfect!

    The hotel offers excellent value for money, providing spacious and meticulously clean rooms with awe-inspiring views from every suite. The attention to detail is evident throughout the hotel, from the well-equipped kitchenette and very good shower in each room to the spacious covered veranda that offers a perfect spot to relax and take in the stunning surroundings. The staff at this hotel truly go above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay. The location of the hotel is unbeatable, situated right on the beach with access to incredible snorkeling. Guests can enjoy the peaceful lagoon and observe a variety of fish, just steps away from their room.

    All aspects of this hotel were satisfactory.

    This hotel offers great value for money with its affordable prices and attention to detail. The location is ideal, right on the beach with stunning views and a peaceful atmosphere. The breakfast provided is delicious and served in a relaxed setting, allowing guests to enjoy their meal with the sound of the waves in the background.

    One minor drawback was the limited food options at the bar, but this did not diminish the overall positive experience.
