Sea Breeze Apartment Bougainville Bay

  : The apartment itself was clean and well enough presented.
  : The apartment is privately owned, but inside a massive resort hotel - this was not made clear from the advert. The owner, who spoke no languages at all, showed us in, demanded payment and then disappeared, not even showing us how to get back out of the hotel complex, which was, believe me, not straightforward. Additionally, we had reserved the apartment as it promised to sleep 5. A hard, square sofa in the living room (not even a sofa bed) does not fulfill the descriptive term of a bed. Our 8yr old coped, but wasnt ever comfortable. Dont be fooled, either, by the promise of being right by the beach. The concrete dock with 5m of pebbles doesnt qualify for that term either. All in all, we felt a little mislead.

  : This is a private apartment and is not part of the complex - we had read some reviews indicating that finding the apartment was difficult, however we had no issue - we were provided with a number to call when at reception and were met and taken to the apartment. Good aircon in main area and fan in the main bedroom and full shutters which kept the apartment cool - could do with adding a fan to the 2nd bedroom Lovely view from the balcony Enough facilities for our 5 night stay including a washing machine which was handy for beach towels Close to the main pool area and sea/small beach area which you could pay to use as a non-hotel guest for 5 Euro each per day - the main pool area was nice with a swim up bar and comfortable sun loungers, the beach area only had a small sand area but was pleasant enough to relax. Main pool area had music all day which you could hear in the apartment - tho personally it did not bother us as it finished around 8pm and we were out most of the time Pizza restaurant on site was a hit for lunch and decently priced, gourmet restaurant on the top floor was nice for treat and had a great view - many reviews state it is overpriced but i thought it was a fair price - staff were lovely and arranged balloons for my husbands birthday Close to a plenty of bars and restaurants and 15/20 minutes walk to the public beach and promenade which is lovely
  : Apartment was was surface clean, but could do with a deep clean - marks on kitchen doors, some of the utensils felt grimy Few items need replaced - broken mirror, broken window handle WIFI was temperamental - but it was not necessary for us as travelling for leisure so no issue
