I must say that the staff at Driftwood has played a big part in to make this trip a truly unforgetable one. Despite the frequent rain, it didn’t stop us from exploring, thanks to the wonderful arrangements made by the staff, who organized a town tour and a day trip to Tawali Resort. The team at Driftwood went out of their way to make our visit special, providing friendly service with genuine smiles—something you don’t always find. If you are planning a holiday or break, make a trip to Alotau and enjoy the tranquility and hospitality of Driftwood Resort

I stayed at driftwood in a bungalow, looking over the bay. Exceptional view, room fine, bed comfy. Staff were welcoming and very helpful. The restaurant bar looks out over the bay and the choice of food was varied well priced and delicious.....

Stayed only 1 night before getting a boat to outer islands, however we had an amazing stay. The team here are beautifully friendly and welcoming with great service. The rooms are very comfortable and the food quality was fantastic. My wife is coeliac and they made us a special Thai dinner which was as good as what we have had in Thailand. Delicious fresh fruit and omelets for breakfast overlooking the bay. Would highly recommend and will return for longer next time. Thanks Marcus and team

Situated at a beachfront with beautiful views to the sea. Friendly staff with an open restaurant. There are bungalows with comfortable beds and rooms. Ample parking space. A generator for back due to blackouts. Security onsite and lovely food. Various drinks to chose.

We visited as day trippers from a cruise. We were collected from the Port by the resort transfer vehicle, air-conditioned and welcoming. On arrival at the resort we were made to feel like valued guests by Patricia. After refreshing drinks we organised an excursion across the bay to the small village of Waga Waga were we spent a few hours snorkelling on a local wreck just off shore. Fabulous little reef with lots of fish and a good variety of corals. Some sandwiches and local fruit were a welcome reward once we returned to the beach. Back at the resort we relaxed on the deck with yummy lunch and cold drinks before being returned to Port. A great day excursion that I can highly recommend. Slightly rustic & authentic, but oh so enjoyable. Thanks to all the staff who treated us like specialty guests.
