Marshall Islands Resort

Le Isole Marshall non hanno molti turisti e l'hotel sembra soddisfare di più appaltatori e visitatori di ONG. Sembra essere costantemente in fase di riparazione, dato che gli anni si fanno sentire. Tuttavia, tutto nella stanza funzionava (tranne il telefono) e il letto era comodo. Il ristorante è davvero buono, con una varietà di cibi locali e importati in offerta. Accanto c'è un piccolo stand gastronomico con frutta fresca e qualche snack.

Where do I start. The pool is closed. The fitness room is closed. They are constantly working on the salt water lines that fill the toilet toilets(At least that’s what the said) so you have to use the shower sprayer to fill the toilet, there is very questionable wiring throughout the room, stray cats are all over the property and pooped on my porch, there is no hot water in the sink, only in the shower, and I question the safety of wiring an on-demand water heater, literally in the shower. The basketball/tennis court that is advertised on the website is a parking lot. The mattresses are old and worn, and I had a spring that was poking through in one of the mattresses in my room. The sheets are equally worn and thread, bear, and mine had several holes in them. The doors still use an actual key, so you have to be mindful to lock your room when you leave, the doors do not always shut completely and you have to be mindful to make sure it is shut and latched. The hotel is obviously aware of this as they have a sign on the back of the doors that address what security will do when they find your door slightly ajar. The hotel “beach” is not something that I would recommend. There is some sand that you can walk down on near the water, but I certainly wouldn’t get in the water in this area, particularly after heavy rains. On the good side, the shuttle does meet you right at the airport when the flight comes in, and the front desk and the restaurant staff were very friendly. Past reviews have complained about the Wi-Fi and Internet, but it appears that they have put routers in each of the rooms , and there is common area Wi-Fi, and it seems to work well. It was able to support FaceTime calls home. There is a refrigerator in the room that works, and there is a supermarket very close by where you can buy things to have snacks and cold drinks in your room, and much more affordable than buying at the hotel. There is a fairly safe route to go jogging near the hotel that we mapped out at one and a quarter miles.

My wife and I stayed 1 night, arriving at noon from MAJ Airport, met by the hotel driver holding a sign and joining 2 others for the 11km van ride east. 2 nice friendly receptionists copied our passports, took the credit card payment, provided the key to our lagoon view double and pointed out the lobby wifi desk. Room #235 was clean, tiled and quiet with 2 comfortable doubles, refer below the TV and hot pot at the desk. We drank boiled or bottled water(2 bottles provided). Inconsistant hot water was limited to an electric unit at the shower head. A sliding door accessed the balcony with a water view over the roofs around the pool, currently under renovation. The silent wall AC was appreciated as was the room’s secure WIFI hotspot provided with assistance from the desk, who also printed tomorrow’s boarding passes. We walked 650m east along the main road to the center’s wonderful Island Pride Supermarket where most of the islanders shop. This hotel was the perfect location for our 1 night with included airport transfers and nice accommodation.
