Hotel 4 bintang Matamanoa Island yang Popular

Lots of reviews here already confirming what a magical place this is so I will just add a few tips and thoughts to try to help other travellers to enjoy their stays as much as possible:- WiFi (and VOIP phone) - if you have any business or other interests where ready access to wifi is important then please be advised that the hotel wifi is only available in the lounge/lobby area and is not that fast. However, 4g access with acceptable speeds is available throughout the resort (and certainly very good indeed from our later room #2 and still OK in our first room #19) but only with the Digicell network. When we arrived at the airport there was the choice of Vodafone, which I chose as I had used it on previous visits, and Digicell which my partner chose i) at lower cost and, ii) tons more GBs! Fitness Room? - This is not really a gym but is only a climbing frame and parallel bars out in the open with hot sun and high humidity. Better to get your daily exercise swimming in the lovely warm water (about 85f) or walking/running on the gorgeous, clean sandy beach. Garden Rooms - Choose only #5 thru #8 (not #9 thru #14) otherwise the 'garden' is very short and the balcony is straight out onto the main pathway. Castaway Island - The actual location for the Tom Hanks film and is just a short boat ride away. A must-do tour operated most days . Food - We both thought the food was excellent, varied and reasonably priced (not cheap - not SubWay prices of course!). Fuel Surcharge - I hope South Sea Cruises have stopped applying this by now - our operator refunded us this cost. The operator applied a compulsory 'surcharge' onto already pre-booked and paid for fares - incredible. Snorkelling - from the resort beach and from boat trips was fabulous. Enjoy! !
