Michael and Christopher the watersports guys could not do enough for us, even advising on places and restaurants to visit. My husband had a blast on the hobiecat. The pool staff were friendly and fun. The entertainment was perfect and we were able to enjoy it from our balcony with a take out from calabash. Use the local supermarket delivery service to get supplies delivered to your room. We will definitely be back. Read less

The room was perfect and all stuff amazingly friendly. Lovely feel to this hotel and the perfect setting for my other half and I. We both really loved the hotel, beach, pool and restaurant. The only nah I could have was the sea was rough but if you walk a little further up it's slightly less rough. Honestly I recommend this hotel for couples. It's in a great area has a lovely vibe and is better than the majority in close proximity! The photos I attached except the one with the alcohol got taken around 6-7am so don't think it's was overcast and cloudy! Everyday was boiling and gorgeous! Read less

Sensational place to stay at this personal hotel with a perfect location, especially after spending 4 nights at he Grand Wyndham on the east coast which has so many issues and not right for us. The staff at Bougainville just can’t do enough to help and whilst I now appreciate all the locals do have a relaxed outlook to life, the team here are so polite and attentive. A huge thanks to the lovely young girls on the front desk - Iowado, Tiami, Rachel (I think) and our man Chris on the beach who took my husband and daughter out on a boat on her birthday! Her day was made extra special by the steel drummer entertainment & lovely lunch service with complimentary birthday cake. Thank you so much for a memorable stay :) Read less
