Wonderful, unique island, great staff, friendly. Reef suites are a classic design and spotlessly clean and spacious. Terrific snorkelling off beach beside pier, on the fringe and outer reef. The various reefs ARE in great shape with healthy coral and myriad fish. Dive shop team led by the extraordinary Craig, are outstanding. Emerald Restaurant's current food offering is expensive and virtually inedible. This was our 5th, five night stay on Green Island. Everything, except the restaurant met our high expectations. Resort is not viable unless the restaurant and food offering on the island are dramatically upgraded to competitive global standards.

The resort is small and has a feel of luxury. The room was large and the woodwork in the room was gorgeous. The bathroom was well appointed and the veranda backed on to rainforest. The room felt very private and you are not overlooked by other guests. The pool area was very relaxing and the staff were very friendly. It felt like a private island after the day guests left at 4.30. Highly recommended, you would not be disappointed.

One of my favourite places to visit - the scenery is stunning - you literally can’t take a bad photo. Daily snorkelling and walks along the beach or through the rainforest. The staff are delightful and don’t miss daily fish feeding followed by sunset drinks after the day trippers leave. Already planning my next stay!

We had a wonderful stay at The Mantra. We booked the spa onsite for a massage and it was amazing. We had a connecting room with the kids and the rooms were so spacious with a wonderful view. Internet was dicey, but we did not care. We asked for 3rd floor even after reading the reviews but we loved it. Staff are wonderful too. The walk to the affiliated restaurant for breakfast was alot in the muggy weather but so good. One of the best buffets we have had and we also had lunch one day there. Fantastic.
