This was our third time staying at Kingfisher Bay Resort, and over the last few years we’ve stayed in different types of accommodation — rooms and two different villa styles — and have always found them great: comfortable, clean, and well-equipped. The staff are consistently lovely, the facilities are fantastic, and there’s always so much on offer. We love the restaurants, the Sunset Bar, the tennis courts, the pool, and the evening light show — it’s always such a wonderful experience overall. Unfortunately, our final night this trip didn’t end on quite the same high note due to our experience at the Dune Restaurant. Our server wasn’t particularly attentive or engaged. To start, when we tried to order a beer on tap, we were told simply that we “could not get a beer on tap.” This struck us as odd, as we’ve dined here before and always been able to, and we could even see other guests with pints they’d brought from the Rainforest Bar. When I checked directly with the bar, I was told the tap was working fine and that the waiter was likely operating off old information of an earlier ‘issue’. However, at no point did the waiter mention there was an issue with the tap — had that been explained, or had he checked with the bar himself, we would have completely understood. Unfortunately, there was no clarification or follow-up, (I had to check with the bar myself, and find out we could in fact, get a beer on tap) and he didn’t return to check on us or take any further drink orders throughout the meal. Another disappointment was that I ordered the prawn sui mai but was served pork instead. This wasn’t realised when the food was brought out and I only realised after eating some — quite an unpleasant surprise as I’ve been vegetarian for over five years. It was an unfortunate final dining experience after an otherwise faultless stay. Despite this, we still absolutely love Kingfisher Bay Resort and will no doubt return again in the future — everything else was, as always, wonderful.

We had a short but restful and decadent stay. The meal at Dune was delectable. Rooms are clean, comfortable, cool and a spacious bathroom. Loved all the water surrounding the accommodation. The light show was so impressive.

Just had a 3 night stay at one of the villas here. Cannot recommend it enough! Everything was so clean and the staff were fantastic. The beauty spots tour was the highlight of the trip, particularly Peter who made the trip what it was. He had so much knowledge of the island and nature and even taught me so much about the birds on the island as a novice birdwatcher! Lake McKenzie was the most stunning, beautiful clear water to swim in. Will definitely return to see more of the island.

The island is absolutely a stunning paradise surrounded by nature. The 4x4 day tour was amazing and definitely worth it, and watching the sunset from the beach bar was one of my favorite moments. That said, a few things could be better. We had issues with the guest upstairs making noise during the night, and although we reported it, the situation was not handled well and actually got worse. Our room was never cleaned during our stay, even after leaving the sign, and the mattress was very uncomfortable, clearly old and worn out. At the pool, it would be great to have an adults-only area since there were kids jumping everywhere despite the signs. The night light show is a nice idea, but the price doesn’t really match what you get. Overall, the resort is beautiful and worth visiting for the location alone. With some improvements in service and maintenance, it could easily be an excellent experience.

Not sure how this is classed as a 'resort'. Room was extremely out dated. No microwave and a tiny bath tub shower. Mattress was something I'd expect in a hostel. As for a buffet breakfast, what a load of garbage. $32 per person and i get better food in a FIFO camp. It cost just shy of $80 for 2 people to eat and a barrister made coffee. $22 per person for cereal. We paid $200 per night with a 30% discount and still would never stay back their again. The so called restaurant was average food with poor service. Really confused why people pay to stay their. We booked after a week on the east side thinking it'll be nice to relax in a resort for 3 nights. It was quite the opposite. We could not wait to leave. The only good thing there was the pub- the sand bar and bistro. Great food and reasonably priced.
