Wow! Easily one of the best Resorts I have stayed at. Great value for money. My room was a spa room, 2 levels, 2-3 bedrooms, self contained unit/townhouse style and it was super cheap (120-150 a night, I don't remember). Room was clean, tidy and well equipped.

Food at the restaurant was top quality and so was the service. Prices was reasonable and worth paying. Great location, right on the beach. There are currently road works in the area but they will be finished soon enough. I would stay here again and I do recommend this Resort to others.

Now a pizza place. Took +30 minutes for 2 pizzas, we were the 3rd order for the night. Pizza itself was very average to poor. Don't bother with the breads. It would have cost less and taken less time to cook my own, better pizza. Will not go back.

Food - Not a bad menu. Nice food. But seriously, who still serves offal and charges a truck load?

Ambience - nice enough place to sit and eat. A little tightly packed. The decor was inline with the name.

Service - Pretty good! Curt, friendly, prompt.

Value - Very poor. Small servings for the money and then add sides. Where's my bread? I left hungry after 2 courses. Wine was over priced considering this is their main attraction. $14 for a glass of NZ Pinot? Come on!

Would I go back? Nup, but I would not aggressively discourage others to try.

Food, I've had better Indian from a jar. At least I didn't have to cook or clean. It wasn't terrible, just not great. I can't believe a plate of papadums were $15!

Ambience, nothing special. Just another busy restaurant.

Service, fail. Understaffed.

Value, beer was $7+, mains $19.50 - $21.50. About normal to over priced for Indian. Not bad servings.

Would I go back? Nup.

Went there for lunch, not bad! Can't complain too much. Friendly staff, good food. Bit over priced, but that seems to be a bad habit all over SA.

About on par with other pub prices, a little more austere given it’s a uni pub.

Update: Ordered a few pizzas here now and the quality seems to vary, some nights are great, some a bit disappointing. My first pizza was awesome. The rest have been of varying quality. The garlic bread is below average and more of filler. Delivery times are long (50 minutes) and pick up times usually 35-50 minutes. These guys do good business but would do better if they could evenly spread the cheese every time.

I had heard alot of good things about this place, however, I was alittle disappointed. Pizzas were ok, very different to traditional pizza places but I think I can make better at home. Between 4 of us it worked out to be $30 a head for 2 pizzas, a little garlic one and a couple of drinks each.

Very much like any other half decent hotel lobby. Its a nice place to meet up but don't stay too long as drinks are, as you would expect, horribly over priced but you do get free olives. Rooms are clean and modern, but small. Service is very curt and professional. Yes nice views but only because its one of the taller buildings around. Location is also quite good so there are pleanty of nicer, better value, places to be, in my opinion.

Food was good. Well prepared, and all meals came out at the same time. I thought the meals were a bit on the lean side and a distinct lack of sides. Beer and soft drinks were overpriced, where as most wine had a 80-110% markup (cheapish). Spirits were best value.

Ambience was pretty good although very busy, nice mood lighting and candles on the table. Overall, I'd go back there if I'm ever out that way again.
