Koror

"I can’t say enough about the 4S Explorer. 4S service and dining (mostly) on a dive boat There are other water activities for non divers but Palau is for diving ! I’ve been diving for 30 years and this was hands down the best diving I’ve ever done. I only wish I had a few more days Already planning for the return trip. Not easy to get to Palau, but honestly, that is part of the charm and the dive sites aren’t over run with tourists"

Top Australia - New Zealand and the South Pacific Hotel Reviews

The Fullerton Hotel Sydney

10/10 Excellent

"Love the Fullerton great location for shopping right in the heart of it all. We have stayed in both the clock tower view room and the vintage older side of the building personally prefer the newer side with the view the old side is lovely and the rooms are huge we stayed in 325 great block out curtains and level 3 the highest level wasn’t noisy you could easily have a couple of roll in beds if you have a family or sharing bathroom brought in it is a good size the view is Martin place the negative is the tv was on the side wall of the bed so couldn’t really watch from the bed there was only one comfortable chair there should be a two seat sofa the room had so much space I am amazed the designer hasn’t done that for function all in all it’s a great place next time we will go back to the clock tower view room I was told you will see the Xmas tree in Martin place from this room from end November if this interests you"
