Heavenly Cuisine Experience

During my recent stay, I was blown away by the quality of the food at Wellesley Resort. The chef, Nathan, created heavenly dishes, and I was especially impressed when he prepared the fish my partner caught in multiple delicious ways. Every meal felt like a real treat, and the variety of vegan and gluten-free options was a good surprise. Highly recommend indulging in their diverse menu!

Relaxing Beachside Massage

I enjoyed a fantastic spa experience at the beach massage hut. Mary provided a one-hour full-body massage that was both relaxing and rejuvenating. The setting was serene, with the sound of the waves complementing the soothing atmosphere. It's a must-try for anyone looking to unwind during their stay.

Spacious Villa Comfort

I stayed in a spacious standard room that was perfect for my needs. It had a large double bed, a cozy seating area, and really good cleanliness. The layout was practical, and I loved how efficient it was as I didn't need much storage for my belongings. I appreciated the thoughtful touches like a kettle for morning coffee.

Refreshing Private Shower

I really enjoyed the private outdoor shower in my villa. It was an amazing experience to shower surrounded by nature, providing a refreshing feel after a long day at the beach. The design was beautiful, making it one of the highlights of my stay. It's not something you encounter every day!

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely resort tucked away in a remote part of the Coral Coast. The snorkeling was fantastic right off the beach, and the rooms were clean and comfortable.

Overall, a great spot for relaxation.

Our stay at the Wellesley was a truly relaxing experience in a beautiful setting. The pool villas are ideal for privacy, and the staff made us feel right at home throughout our stay. However, while the dining options were tasty, they could definitely be more diverse, especially after a few days. The location is serene and picturesque, but being a bit remote means transport is necessary to access other areas.

I had a mixed experience at the resort. On the plus side, the location is truly stunning and the rooms, particularly the pool villas, are quite appealing. However, my stay was marred by long wait times for meals and a less than satisfactory dining experience. If you're seeking a quiet getaway, this could be a fit, but be prepared for some conveniences to be lacking.

Situated in a valley with lush jungle surroundings, the location felt like a tropical paradise. I did feel a bit isolated, which might not be suitable for everyone.

Dining

Dining was a letdown for me. The menu lacked variety and quality, with several dishes being disappointing, particularly for my wife who has dietary restrictions. This really affected our enjoyment during the stay.

Facilities

The facilities like the pool were enjoyable and well-kept, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. Access to the beach was good, but the condition of the road to get there was concerning.
