We like the ocean view rooms. We catch beautiful views of the sunrise in the early mornings. Love the sound of waves crashing on to the sand and the birds chirping away in the early mornings. So serene.

Loloata is always great, however the room we stayed in this time round could use some maintenance. A few things were falling apart, shower head need s good scrubbing. But the food and beverages team are always the best, Priscilla is always super accommodating and the rest of her team. Thanks for making our stay so comfortable because we did spend a lot of time in the restaurant while i wrote my final paper for school. Thanks for watch my son while i worked.

This was one of the most incredible, lovely and relaxing places that I have ever stayed, especially in Papua
New Guinea. The staff were so attentive and helpful and gracious no matter what we needed. The spa services and atmosphere were indescribably relaxing and pampering. I cannot say enough good things about the resort, its staff and services. I highly recommend anyone to stay here and I will return myself.

This visit was quite good. The property management did make an effort to pick up the debris washed up on shore and be more environmentally conscious.
I hope that will continue. Overall the stay was great. Food and service was very good

Very quiet and amazing views. You forget everything once you are on the resort. Food is something that the resort needs to work on. It is overpriced and low quality.

A beautiful, safe haven only a short boat ride from the coast, and airport transfers included. From the moment we stepped off the ferry, we were impressed by the beauty of the resort and the friendliness and attentiveness of the staff. Plenty to do to keep us happy for 5 days - walking, swimming, dining, relaxing by the pool, snorkelling, kayaking, day spa, and capturing photos of the amazing sunrises and sunsets. We absolutely plan to return!

Loloata is undoubtedly a stunning resort, especially being so close to Port Moresby. But there was such a breakdown in service this trip that I can’t leave a 5 star review.

Nice to visit, but don't expect great service
Great Location and opportunty to get away from Port Moresby for a break. Unfortunately service has never been great at Loloata and contnues to be that way. The menu has been the same for years, they ran out of the wine we were drinking (on a long weekend) on Saturday night and the breakfast was very average with most stuff not available after 9.00am. On the plus side, the staff were friendly.

Area around the property had a lot of debris. Bottles, plastic and paper washed in from the tides. It did not give a good impression of the resort.
They have to ensure that the debris are cleaned regularly around the property

Overall, we enjoyed the weekend away from the town, but the resort is in need of a refresh. Our room wasnt cleaned properly, the sheets were dirty, the curtains didnt completely close for full block out and we had to request additional glasware and to top it off the sink had a large cip and several cracks int it. The day spa was the highlight as it is always. Fantastic service, very tranquil and relaxing and amazing tea! There is a little sheltered area on the back of the island that would make an amazing private beach "no kids" which would be fantastic for romantic picnics and sunset dinners, just needs to be cleaner.

Lovely resort in a beautiful location but let down by poor management.
We arrived three days ago and I noticed that the pool looked dirty. On the second day of our stay we got up early to go swimming. We were met by these barriers, apparently the pump is broken. We were initially told that it would be fixed that day but later found out that this isn't true. It actually won't be fixed until after we leave.
We asked to speak to the management but we're still waiting for this to happen (2 days and counting). We wanted to request a courtesy boat trip to leave the island as the pool is closed and the small childs pool is full, the beach is small and very busy. With the pool closed there's nothing else to do so we wanted to get off the island instead. It's a very expensive resort considering the pool is out of action, we didn't think this was much to ask. They send out front of house staff who don't have autonomy to deal with issues. I had no choice but to follow up with Hotels.com who called the hotel. Hotel lied and said the pool was open, the pool wasn't open.
The staff on the ground are lovely but the management are non existent. It's clear that the priority here is the events and large conferences taking place every day. Common areas are left dirty and untidy after these events with balloons and waste in the water. Management don't care about the regular holidaymakers. Great potential let down by mismanagement.
