This resort offers a unique experience with intimate villas and a serene environment, making it a luxurious choice for couples. The food was a highlight for us at the Ocean View restaurant, but there were some disappointments with the offerings at the Flambe restaurant. The friendly and professional staff truly enhanced our stay, though one restaurant could use more consistent quality. Overall, it's a beautiful getaway, but there's room for improvement in dining.

Our stay at Crown Beach Resort was nothing short of magical. The beachfront villa was spacious and comfortable, and we enjoyed breathtaking views during our stay. The staff went above and beyond, ensuring our wedding day was perfect. However, the bathroom could use a refresh and additional storage, which slightly detracted from the overall experience.

I had an unforgettable stay at this resort, especially while enjoying my time in the spacious private pool villa. The staff was genuinely friendly and always happy to help, adding that special touch to my experience. However, the dining options could use some improvement with more variety for breakfast. While the location was beautiful with peaceful sunsets, I wish the facilities were better maintained, particularly the gym equipment.

While breakfast was included and had great items like eggs cooked to order, I found the overall options lacking in variety and creativity. I enjoyed a local dish called rukau, but more healthy options would have been appreciated.

The resort has great amenities, but the gym equipment was quite tired and in need of an upgrade. It felt like a missed opportunity for a resort of this caliber.

My stay at the resort had its highs and lows. On one hand, the room was spacious and came with its own private pool, which was a fantastic feature for relaxation. However, I didn't feel particularly welcomed during my time there, and the staff seemed overwhelmed, especially during busy periods. The dining experiences varied, with some meals being delicious while others fell flat, especially during the themed nights. Overall, while the place holds promise, there are definitely areas that need improvement for the price charged.

Rooms
