Hideaway Island Resort

The location and the people are incredible

Nothing I loved everything

We liked going through the lovely garden in the middle of the island to our own bungalow, and we just loved the excellent snorkelling just off shore. There was a multitude of different corals and brilliantly coloured fish. It’s also easy to take the ferry to and from the mainland

Some of it is quite shabby and could do with an upgrade, especially the bathroom.

Absolutely loved it here! The boat comes and picks you up and goes back and forth all day. The reef is dead out the front but you just have to go out further past the second pontoon and it’s beautiful. Bring reef shoes or wear thongs, it’s not sandy walking down to the water. The food is not bad, some things are better than others but it’s expensive. Dinner menu doesn’t have a heap of options to choose from. The island cats are very cute! Wifi was great in reception and restaurant area but doesn’t work in bedroom.

- Bathrooms desperately need to re-vamp. - Having dorm rooms you should provide a kitchen of some sorts at least, having just a fridge isn’t ideal. - The beach loungers are quite uncomfortable and probably need to be replaced

The staff were sensational and the snorkeling out from the bar was absolutely gorgeous

They almost completely ran out of food. We have to leave the island to eat. It’s perfect to sit and eat and have cocktails but we couldn’t get food. The owners didn’t care and the staff had to put up with continual complaints. For this reason we won’t return as you have to catch a boat to get a meal. Very expensive for what you get.
