Beachcomber Island

---

Hi all,

We stayed at Beachcomber Island on 2nd and 3rd. Must admit we were very dissapointed. It's a real backpackers place with the operators packing them in in 90 bed dorms. We paid $391 per night for a private bure on the opposite side of the island (can get quite noisy at night otherwise). It was OK, but for the money we expected alot more.

And then they had the cheek to charge $7 for every 15 minutes on the internet as well as $7 to rent out a sun lounger to lie on the beach.

The beach itself is sharp sand with lots of broken shells and coral underfoot so its not that nice. The water looked rough and choppy on the two days we were there so that wrote of snorkelling too.

My advice, stay in Octopus. Much much better.

Mike
