| Consumer Reviews and Rating |

"Having been to [other hotel], I was disappointed with what I found at Tangalooma. Short of the paying activities, the free activities are definitely nothing to shout about. Given that it is positioning itself as a resort, there should have been more coaching and stewardship at the activities like archery, golf, badminton. Why assume visitors know the rules? Surely there can be timings for visitors to sign up to get some pointers? " - CHEE HIAN ONG
"The only thing that makes this place loook bad is the steakhouse restaurant; lousy service and poor atmosphere. The food though is fantastic!" - Anonymous
"Tangalooma resort was very enjoyable, apart from the rainy weather, which I was informed was unusual for the time of year.
I would recommend the resort to everyone and if I return I would go on the organised tours (weather permitting).
I would have liked to stay a while longer. " - Anonymous
"Very disappointing facilities, poor expensive food, poor public areas, no where comfortable to sit down and enjoy the surrounding natural beauty. we where really disappointed with this resort, the website is million times better than the real thing. The facilities are very old and cater for the lowest common denominator. There where a lot of very unhappy people staying at the resort." - Clare Willis-Burton
