Coralview Island Resort

Decent option for the Yaswa islands Coralview was a decent experience for us. The staff were absolutely lovely and took great care of us. The burres were clean and spacious. There was great snorkeling just off the beach, and the option of walking over to the Savuti reef (about 1 mile walk along the beach) for additional snorkeling. There were also free kayaks available for use. So, lots to see and do here. There are however, two negatives we experienced. The one minor issue was that we didn't particularly like the meat and way it was cooked (the fish was quite good, but the red meat options were, in our opinion, not great). However, once we switched over to the vegetarian options, the food was quite tasty! Another minor food issue is that the salt shakers never worked due to the humidity - I would suggest that management switch to either using salt grinders, or just put out little cups of salt for their guests. The really big issue for us was that the coral lies in a fairly busy boat route, so we were always stressed about getting run over by a boat - and many of the boats go quite fast over this area, so we ended up not really enjoying the snorkeling. The little yellow floaties they provided us with were useless to us, since we like to do a bit of freediving when we snorkel. Definitely something to keep in mind if you're avid snorkelers like us. This is the one thing that would keep us from returning to Coralview, so we really hope they can do something about this.
