I was really disappointed with my stay. The ocean view room was dark and dated, and the bed felt like a rock. Plus, there were extra charges for Wi-Fi and no beach towels provided. On the bright side, the outdoor area was beautiful and the beach view was mesmerizing. Unfortunately, the dining options were lackluster, and the services offered were underwhelming and not up to par.

I was pleasantly surprised by this hotel, particularly after a not-so-great experience elsewhere in Nadi. The welcoming reception and spacious, clean room exceeded my expectations. I enjoyed the beautiful pool right on the beach and the tasty meals at the restaurant. Unfortunately, some aspects could be improved, such as air conditioning and room upgrades.

My stay at Smuggler's Cove had its ups and downs. I enjoyed a relaxing massage and some friendly interactions, but the dining service was frustrating and the beach conditions were a bit concerning. Overall, it's a budget-friendly option if you can overlook some shortcomings, especially with service and cleanliness.

The facilities were okay, but the pool was too cold to enjoy fully, and the beach conditions made me hesitant to swim. They do have some appealing spa services, which I appreciated.

I had a mixed experience during my stay. The room was tidy and comfortable, but there were significant issues like the air conditioning not working and the overall cleanliness that really affected my stay. The dining options were decent, and the prices were reasonable, but the service left much to be desired, with staff not being very apologetic when issues arose. The location was convenient for airport access, but it felt disappointing overall.
