Detta var ett fantastiskt boende för oss som ville komma bort och njuta av lugnet. Fantastisk utsikt och boende i nya fräscha små villor. Bra restaurang och väldigt trevlig och hjälpsam personal. ##### Poulina Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathryn 28 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Castaways Resort was wonderful. The chalet was clean, comfortable, and had a wonderful view of the sea. The restaurant was good and had a great variety for breakfast. It is out of the way, but if you’re looking for someplace remote and quiet, this place is excellent. ##### Kathryn Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Vatsal 30 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication The restaurant is very for the breakfast, very small amount of options for vegans or vegetarians. There is definitely a room for improvement for the restaurant. Otherwise we loved our stay.

The rooms were a little outdated but the overall stay was good. Hotel breakfast was average, with small selection of hot food, bread and dessert. Check-out was annoying as there was only one person at the counter, so if the person at the front of the queue had an issue to resolve, everyone else had to wait. There were multiple teams who had major issues with room service so had to stand there for over 20 minutes just to hand over the keys. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Col 21 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Room service food was cold for which I received only a 20% discount!!! Should have been free. Trying to reach anyone in the resort via the phone system was a nightmare. I would never go to this resort ever again ##### Col Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Juliet Mavis 29 Dec 2024 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Aesthetic View was awesome ##### Juliet Mavis Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Heather 5 Dec 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Excellent spot, quite quiet so I guess we were lucky. Cool West Coast beach with tons of activity going on ##### Heather Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Rachel 24 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Beautiful location. Came back for our anniversary (we got married here 8 years ago). Only downfall was we were in a 1 bedroom unit joined to a villa, the bedroom had no kitchen facilities, no coffee and no cutlery other than teaspoons. But we would stay here again and staff were very accommodating ##### Rachel Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Fetaia'i 9 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A beautiful location, especially just a little outside of the city. Breakfast was amazing! ##### Fetaia'i Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christopher 20 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Unusual hotel by a black sand beach with an ocean view with a range of accommodation going up a steep hill. Quiet, wind blown and can be sunny depending on the changing weather with views of the Tasman Sea. ##### Christopher Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Formosa Valley Resort by UNE Homes](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Orlando-Hotels-Formosa-Valley-Resort-By-UNE-Homes.h75962058.Hotel-Information) > > [Harbour Beach Club & Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Salcombe-Hotels-Harbour-Beach-Club-Hotel-Spa.h2261933.Hotel-Information) > > [Cesar Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marrakech-Hotels-Cesar-Resort-Spa.h4857090.Hotel-Information) > > [The Oxford Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Blackpool-Hotels-The-New-Oxford-Hotel.h45152830.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Bordoy Continental Valldemossa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Valldemossa-Hotels-Hotel-Continental-Valldemossa.h16644449.Hotel-Information) > > [Caravan Parks Palmanova](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palmanova-Caravan-Parks.d6126157-aaCaravanParks.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotels with Hot Tubs near Lake Como](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lake-Como-Hotels-Hotels-With-Hot-Tubs.0-0-d6024900-tHotelsWithHotTubs.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Met Hotel Leeds - Newly Refurbished](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Leeds-Hotels-The-Met-Hotel.h1602.Hotel-Information) > > [All-Inclusive Hotels in Holetown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Holetown-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d9290-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Horangee Pocha](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-London-Full-House.h7859367.Hotel-Information) > > [1 Stanhope Place flat 2](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-1-Stanhope-Place-Flat-2.h35825497.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Roath Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Roath-Park-Hotels.0-l6084269-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels near Tonbridge Paddock Wood Station](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tonbridge-Paddock-Wood-Station-Hotels.d6259710.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Saphir Hotel & Villas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alanya-Hotels-Saphir-Hotel-All-Inclusive.h1864571.Hotel-Information) > > [Bamflatt Farm B&B](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Strathaven-Hotels-Bamflatt-Farm-BB.h33628969.Hotel-Information) > > [Cavo Ventus Villa - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santorini-Hotels-Cavo-Ventus-Villa-Adults-Only.h8753305.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Christchurch (BOH) to Arlanda (ARN)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/boh/arn/bournemouth-to-stockholm) > > [Flights from New York (JFK) to Chantilly (IAD)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/jfk/iad/new-york-to-washington) > > [Flights from Manchester (MAN) to Le Touquet-Paris-Plage (LTQ)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/man/ltq/manchester-to-le-touquet-paris-plage) > > [Flights from Indianapolis Intl. to NYC-All Airports](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/ind/nyc/indianapolis-to-new-york) > > [Flights from Edinburgh (EDI) to Poznań (POZ)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/edi/poz/edinburgh-to-poznan) > > [flights from skiathos island national airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/airports/jsi/flights-from-skiathos-island-national-airport) ### Cars > [Enterprise Car Rentals In Huddersfield](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Enterprise-Car-Rentals-In-Huddersfield.d4663-c15.Car-Rental-Guide-Suppliers) ### Activities > [Things to do in Ipswich](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Ipswich.d7912.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### General > [Visit Greater London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Greater-London.dx6046290) > > [Visit Nisaki](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nisaki.dx6051482) > > [Visit Uelen](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Uelen.dx553248635949101090)
