Waya Island Hotels from S$34

"Beautiful island and largely lovely staff. Rooms are dated. Fitness centre isn’t really a gym it’s a bunch of dumbbells. Main issue we had though is that there were cats roaming the main restaurant one evening, complained to staff to see if they could shoo them off and they just laughed at us. A few minutes later one jumped on our toddler and ruined our meal and left her very scared of the restaurant for rest of the trip."

"Great location overlooking the beach. Lounge by the water on hammocks, best snorkeling have ever experienced. Wonderful friendly staff. Thoroughly enjoyed our time at Naqailia lodge. Simple, friendly and amazing location. "

"Beautiful place, great food, lovely friendly staff nothing too much trouble"

"Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Out little tree house was neat and tidy. Wonderful place to visit. The reef was excellent too. Directly out in front."

"This place and these people are amazing. What a great stay, you won’t be disappointed. "

"This lodge is not up front about letting you know there is a hefty mandatory per day food charge. I booked through Expedia expecting just lodging but found out after booking my room and the ferry to take me there that there is a non negotiable $20 tender fee and $80.00 op per night food charge. There is nothing on the Expedia site about this and Expedia was not helpful. Unfortunately I booked 2 days prior to arrival and had a non refundable return ticket via the ferry so could not change. There is limited power, no eSIM data and no wifi so I had to keep the booking. Like other island resorts they really need to state up front, before you book, the full cost of staying there. This is an all inclusive not just a room booking as you are lead to believe in Expedia. Expedia is aware an to date has not updated their site. Just be aware the cost is a lot more than advertised. "

"Staff were the most attentive and friendliest group of people I’ve ever had the pleasure to be served by in a resort setting. Spa therapists were excellent and accommodating to my physical limitations. Brought the massages to our room rather than me having to walk to the spa. Grounds were meticulously groomed daily. Food was excellent in presentation, quality, and variety. This resort paid more attention to small details than any place we’ve stayed before."

"Very relaxing place with a lovely staff"

"Everything. The Octopus was memorable, relaxing and welcoming. From the charming bures to cheerful service. And the beauty of the water is unsurpassed. "
