Very Good

The best of the hotel that we put 15 points is the dinner of 7 October with a one piece, included the head, of BIG fish of the reef.
I think is a unicorn fish that a local man go to take by harpoon about in the afternoon and immediately is cooked by grilled, and this dinner was accompanied with fantastic Desperate beer and frites and rice.
It is one spectacular dinner with small lamp a light of the night. !!!
A remember for all the life.

El lodge sirve miy buema comida, el lugar es precioso aunque sobra ese pantalán de plástico azul (uno de madera sería lo suyo en un ecolodge). En cuanto a la cabaña le salva que está casi sobte el mar. No tiene aire acondiciondo,el ventilador de techo va muy lento y las almuhadas muy duras s mi gusto. El servicio se esmera por contentar al huèsped. Nivel de ingĺés muy básico.

Diese Lodge liegt an einem ganz besonderen Ort im Süden von Neukaledonien. Die Landschaft mit der roten Erde ist einzigartig und wunderschön, und die Lodge befindet sich in einer sehr schönen, ruhigen Bucht.
Unser Bungalow hatte einen traumhaften Meerblick – sogar direkt vom Bett aus. Allein dafür lohnt sich der Aufenthalt.
Das Abendessen war reichlich und in Ordnung vom Geschmack, allerdings nichts Besonderes.
Leider merkt man der Lodge deutlich an, dass sie in die Jahre gekommen ist. Viele Bereiche wirken abgewohnt und insgesamt besteht ein großer Renovierungsbedarf. Mit etwas mehr Pflege und Investitionen könnte dieser Ort wirklich ein kleines Paradies sein.
Insgesamt ein wunderschöner Platz mit viel Potenzial, der aber dringend modernisiert werden sollte.
Le site est magnifique. Le domaine n'est pas assez entretenu. Branchage devant notre bungalow soit un acces difficile a notre petit bout de plage privé.
Le logement est plutôt propre, Mais a vraiment besoin de travaux. (Moisissure sur les murs, évier qui fuit.. ect )
C'est vraiment dommage car le cadre extérieur est exceptionnel ainsi que la gentillesse du personnel.
Site très joli face à la plage. Le petit déjeuner est sympa. Petit bémol sur la chambre même si elle était propre grande et agréablement agencée, il y a un store d'une jalousie qui était cassé et la lumière du levé du jour nous a immédiatement réveillé car elle donnait sur le lit. Sinon tout le reste très sympa
(English: see below)
Les +: L'endroit est magnifique, les bungalows propres et spacieux et pieds dans l'eau. Personnel très accueillant et serviable.
Les - : la chambre était prête seulement avec une heure de retard (15h).
Attention ! Il n'y a pas du tout de wifi dans les bungalows, seulement à l'accueil !
Repas: rapport qualité-prix très moyen pour un service plutôt lent.
Au final, nous reviendrons peut être pour le spot.
English:
Good points: awesome spot, clean and spacious rooms just in front of the see. Very friendly and welcoming staff.
Bad points: the room wasn't ready (1 hour late).
Absolutely no WiFi in the rooms! (reception only).
Food: very average value for money and slow service.
Maybe we'll be back for the spot
Each lodge is right by the beatiful beach. In there is everything needed to settle comfortably and relax. Good meals and service are provided at the restaurant. The general view of the bay around is highly enjoyable. It was hard to leave.
Incontournable lors d’une visite dans le sud
Bungalow au bord la plage
L’accueil est parfait, les repas sont copieux et le personnel est au petit soin toujours prêt à vous satisfaire
Le seul point de progrès la température de l’eau chaude de la douche
La situation de l hotel est remarquable. Bungalows les pieds dans l'eau et au calme. Un vrai petit paradis. Les chambres meriteraient cependant â etre modernisées et le repas du soir â etre amélioré.
Agreable sejour cependant et architecture remarquable.

This property is ver isolated at the southern tip on the island. The access road is awful. Potholes and narrow. Suggest 4wd or take coastal roytes not through the centre. Boat access is far easier.
Wonderful isolated and peaceful place. The hotel is getting a little bit tired. This is one of a number of places that were built around the island in the 1990s and that are showing signs of age (and limited profitability). But the reality is that the spot, the view of the water from every cabin, and the things to do in the area, make this a must-go place. If you expect nightclubs and restaurants, forget about it.
Oh, and like every other place we tried in New Caledonia, the food was terrible and really expensive. It's an issue that drove us absolutely crazy. If you can, bring a cooler and avoid paying a premium for things you really don't want to eat.

Beautiful location off the beaten trail.
The place with individual bungalows is gorgeously located, nice staff, easy check-in. Every cabin offers a great view of the water. Very quiet and private. Kayak rentals is too expensive especially for the condition and quality. Breakfast if fine (but not great, ie no local fruit but ham, cheese and usual steam table sausage and eggs). Dinner space is beautiful but based on one dinner, food is pretty dreary.
At this level of accommodation you don't really have a choice on this part of the island. All in all though the place is getting tired it is still worth it and tremendously relaxing. For those addicted to their wifi, get used to being largely out of touch. Almost never worked.
We recommend walking the "Chemin des Bagnards" trail from the hotel to the campground.
Un site exceptionnel et romantique. Bungalow spacieux et décoré avec goût, les pieds dans l’eau avec une vue magnifique.
Il n’y a aucun magasin à moins de 40 km donc anticiper les achats alimentaires avant d’arriver. Le restaurant est correct mais les prix trop élevés à mon goût.
Séjour d'une nuit avec petit déjeuner inclus. Personnel agréable. Le site est calme et magnifique ! La chambre a du charme, du confort, et une terrasse équipée. Plage sans profondeur mais au bout du ponton possibilité de snorkeling avec beaux fonds. Randonnée "Sentier des bagnards" le long de la plage sympathique. Petit déjeuner très complet . Salons dans les jardins confortables avec vue mer....
Enjoyed quiet retreat time at beach edge. Spacious room with adequate facilities but no microwave for meal preparation. Plentiful facilities at main lodge for relaxing in garden setting.
Good breakfast spread and short but adequate evening menu, Limited activities include water board and short walk.
Staff very friendly and helpful.
Site idyllique perdu au bout du Grand sud
Petit déjeuner pantagruélique
Vue de la chambre parfaite
Juste dommage que les canoe et paddle soient à louer plutôt que mis à disposition
Un petit coin de paradis, les pieds dans le lagon.
Le personnel est très accueillant et serviable. le bungalow offre une vue imprenable sur le lagon par une large baie vitrée. Nous avons apprécié le silence et le chant des oiseaux, ainsi que clapot des vagues qui viennent jusqu'au pied du bungalow. A noter quelques points à améliorer, le menu du restaurant qui ne présente que 2 entrées, 2 plats et 2 desserts. Menu un peu cher d'ailleurs. le brasseur de la chambre un peu poussif et il n'y a pas de Wifi dans le bungalow. Ceci dit nous avons passé un super WE, le cadre ne nous donne plus envie de rentrer. Je recommande cet hôtel.

Entspannender Aufenthalt
Die Lodge liegt weit entfernt von der nächsten Stadt, dadurch ist man auf die Hotel-Verpflegung angewiesen. Frühstück war gut, Abendessen OK. Insgesamt waren die Preise etwas hoch angesetzt. Kostenloses Wifi im Restaurant. Strand war jedoch sehr sauber und direkt vor der Tür. Insgesamt würde ich die Unterkunft jedem empfehlen der abschalten will.
