I loved the room and it was super high quality. The beds were neat and there wasn’t any stains. It had a good view when we were in the elevator. There were so much things to do such as snorkelling and fuse ball, even ping pong! I had such a great time and I do recommend everyone to go. Overall, I rate it a five out of five.😁

From booking, to checking-in to checking out everything was seamless thanks to the attentive staff. For $12 more I booked us into a Coral Sea View room (2 double beds) and it was the right call. The view over Catseye Beach was beautiful. And the bathroom was THE biggest (with a thoughtful layout) I’ve ever had in a hotel room. The pool was so relaxed (only for hotel guests) and the departure lounge was so useful with lockers for luggage and showers for last minute swimming before our late afternoon on flight home. Would definitely stay again!

We loved our stay at Reef View Hotel. The views were gorgeous, and the staff were very friendly - check-in and check-out were very smooth, and the arrivals & departure lounge was great for having a shower after lounging by the pool and before catching our flight. The breakfast buffet was excellent, and Reef Lounge downstairs had some decent dinner options. The rooms are a little worn, but clean and comfortable. The location is great right on Catseye beach. Overall highly recommend!

The property is almost next to the beach. It has magnificent reef views. Shuttle bus to the town centre is very frequent. Breakfast is average, but the tropical fruit is very fresh. The check in area is spacious and staff is friendly and helpful. The airport shuttle is very convenient. The down side is that the place is quite dated. Room decor should be freshen up a bit. The bathroom and toilet are felt several decades old. In general, we had a good stay.
