Tamanu Beach
10/10 Excellent
"Gorgeous property with a village feel. Very tranquil. Loved the outdoor shower and the outdoor deck with daybed. Fantastic beach for snorkelling and swimmming."
"Had the best time at the Edgewater Resort, room was totally spotless, the staff were very friendly always welcoming and the food was delicious, were definitely will stay here again 10/10 cant fault anything. "
"For five nights I enjoyed my well appointed suite, which had facilities for laundry, cooking, outdoor bbq, and patio. The outdoor patio had covered areas which were great during the occasional rains. There was an inside shower and an outdoor soaking tub. Many sliding doors with screens allowed cross ventilation, and it all could be closed at night for cooling with the mini split. The outdoor pool area also had two smaller hot tubs. Though there was a breakfast area in the common area, breakfast was by prearrangement, and I did not take advantage of that. Spa services were available, and a bicycle was also available for hire. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Though the villas are not on the main island tourist bus route, it is about a 1km walk to one of the main intersections. The Saturday market is about a 24 minute walk. To trader jacks, 27 minutes. I would definitely stay here again. "
