This place is amazing, but the food lets it down big time. The rooms, pools, activities and staff are all brilliant but the food choices are limited. I am vegetarian and looked at the menus before we booked and there seemed a reasonable choice but several dishes were not available and what I did eat was mostly too salty or too sweet in Palermo and Kilimanjaro. Fiji was the only good restaurant and so we ate there every night after trying the other two. The last point that really let it down is very personal to me but sets the standard. I had requested alternative meal option to dairy and was told this was not an option. I took a taxi 5 mins to the nearest 7-eleven and purchased my own. I have stayed in hotels all over the world and a true 5 star would not let a guest do this, especially when I informed them of what I planned. It is a shame as this is a 5 star resort on many fronts but the food options really do let it down. Vegetarian dishes are not labelled on the menus either. One other small gripe is the simulated rocks on the floors of the lagoons that are paired the same colour as the floor and the first you know of them is when you have stubbed your toe or tripped over!

I appreciate the no tipping policy. We expected to tip to every single service and were quiet surprised that it was not a practice. We would definitely come back as it was relaxing stay.
