The staff was very friendly and helpful but the property not as described. Run down especially the bathroom. Towels looked dirty and kitchen very limited. There was no shuttle to town, had to get transport ourselves, TV only had 2 channels and internet hardly working. No access in the rooms and password constantly changed

Small quiet resort. Good meals in the restaurant. Kim in the office went out of her way to help us. Small things could improve the stay - soap in the bathrooms, fresh towels without having to request them etc. Air conditioning unit struggled so room was warm - although cooler than outside temperature. Beds were uncomfortable to the point our son slept on the living room furniture.

Even though we were only a 10min drive away from town, we appreciated how quiet it was. Felt like we weren’t on mainland but on an island. The lagoon was amazing! Best thing to look at first thing in the morning. Pictures don’t do it justice and the staff were a bonus! So lovely and always willing to help whenever we needed. 10/10

Lovely staff!

We had a lovely week at tropicana. It was quiet, relaxed and the staff were so helpful and friendly. Being able to jump in a kayak most mornings for a bit of exercise was great and my son could even fish off the beach in front of our unit. Everything we needed :)

Nice resort

Nice resort but food and service in the restaurant needs to be improved. We had to go to other resorts to have breakfast, lunch and dinner. My two bedroom unit had 3 rodents who leaves their droppings everywhere. Fridge and shower keeps leaking. Contenantal break fast was terrible, there wasn't enough food for 3 people.

Apartment right on the lagoon. Beautiful views.

Its a nice but basic place to stay. All of the staff are beautiful people and helpful except for just one girl that was quite rude and gave the impression she didn't want to be there. The restaurant has some great meals but breakfast is very limited. The are cooking facilities in the rooms though. A shop within walking distance to get most of what you need and to go to town just walk to end of driveway and get a bus almost straight away.
