The hotel is right next to Little Polynesian, convenient location, you can take the bus to the town, the beach is very beautiful, can enjoy the ocean view directly from room. The room is clean, with cutlery and a kettle, but the bath water is not stable.

I booked Moana Sands Beachfront Hotel through *******, and unfortunately, my experience was disappointing from the start. The booking clearly stated that the full amount would be paid at the hotel, but they charged 50% in advance without my permission. This lack of transparency was frustrating and unacceptable. The hotel itself is very average for a 3-star property. The facilities are basic, and while the staff were friendly and helpful, the overall experience did not justify the inconvenience caused by their unexpected payment policy. The breakfast was standard but nothing special, and the hotel lacks any standout features that would make me recommend it. If you’re looking for a hassle-free booking and a comfortable stay, I would suggest considering other options. I won’t be staying here again.

Very average.
The selling point is the beach which is second to non. A few issues there: the breakfast is well below average with limited choices and boring not even eggs is included; coffee is not good at all. The paid wifi connection is a joke, I had to re-connect many times in my room and that applies to all the guests we came across. No room make up on Sunday without letting us know and I had to take my rubbish bins out myself. I won’t recommend this hotel to my friends.

Pleasant
The stay was pleasant. Steps away from the beach. They give you free breakfast which is nice. Rooms are clean.

Love the Seaview room
We were staying at level 2, the Seaview was lovely. We went snorkelling just outside the hotel, many fish there. It is a small hotel, which is good, nice and chill.
