November 2024, our third visit to Komandoo & sadly, almost certainly our last. The location remains fabulous. Garden & cliff reef snorkelling, wonderful. Food, varied & delicious. Staff, really welcoming & friendly. Spa treatments, blissful. The accommodation, dreadful! On our previous two visits & again this time, we booked a beach villa with jacuzzi. We were shown to Marlin 5 & first impressions; dirty cushions on the patio chairs, ripped parasol, torn & grubby nets, nails sticking out of the door, peeling paint. We looked further inside, dirty lampshades, peeling paint, mould in the bathroom, the amenities were simply worn out. It was soooo shabby, run down & so totally not what we’d enjoyed previously. The room felt totally unloved, what a shame! The resort did their best to rectify & replace, but the shine really had gone & a lick of paint was woefully insufficient. We were there to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary & we felt like the hotel inspectors finding fault after fault after fault, with no other rooms available. We tried to make the best of things, but ultimately would have remembered our anniversary for all the wrong reasons if we hadn’t chosen to transfer, at our expense to neighbouring Kudadoo, which is a totally different level of luxury & quite exquisite! Latterly we learned the resort had been without a general manager for 6 months, maybe the incoming one will effect the desperately needed overhaul. We wanted, simple, relaxed & charming from Komandoo. Sadly, we got shabby & worn out.
