I had a wonderful stay at this resort! The oceanfront villas were well-appointed and offered a fantastic experience overall. The kitchen was stocked with modern conveniences, and the comfortable beds made for restful nights. However, the fitness room was a major letdown as it didn't have the equipment I expected. Overall, I would definitely recommend this place for a relaxing getaway.

I had a wonderful stay at the resort, surrounded by stunning views and a peaceful atmosphere. The rooms were comfortable, although a bit outdated, and the staff were incredibly accommodating. On the downside, my room in the lodge was a little noisy due to the restaurant below. Overall, I enjoyed my time and appreciated the laid-back vibe of Mayne Island, but I would recommend opting for a cabin or villa for a quieter experience.

I had a great time at Mayne Island Resort and Spa! The room was cozy with an amazing view from the private balcony, making it a perfect retreat. The staff were lovely and the restaurant offered delicious food. However, the fitness room was quite disappointing, with outdated equipment. It's also worth noting that the spa was closed during my stay, which was a letdown too.

This hotel offers a peaceful getaway with stunning views and comfortable accommodations. The rooms are clean and the dining options are delightful, especially in the lodge's Bistro. However, the property is somewhat older, and the gym facilities were not fully operational during my stay. Overall, it's a great value if you appreciate tranquility and natural beauty.

Our weekend at the resort was quite disappointing, especially as a family with young kids. While the location was beautiful and the cabins were nicely designed, the atmosphere was not welcoming, particularly for children. There was little comfort in service, and the connectivity was frustratingly poor. While the views and the overall setting are lovely, the rudeness encountered made for an unenjoyable stay.
