Lovely isolated location, beautiful setting. Unfortunately our first bungalow had a broken A/C and no hot water, they did move us to another but then 2 mornings in a row we woke up with no running water. Very inconvenient with a young child.

A beautiful hotel surrounded by a beautiful ground on a nice quiet long beach. Besides the bed the room has a small sitting area that overlooking a beautiful garden. This hotel is connected to a little island that serves coffee and lunch. Everything was new and functioning. We arrived half an hour before the check-in time and we're not let in, not until ten minutes later when someone who looked like a manager came back to the counter and he offered us the room we booked. This person did everything from checking us in, carting our luggage to the bungalow and giving us the local knowledge of the area. Wonderful!

Nice place in a remote area
There is limited choice in the area. It was a nice stay, more expensive than we prefer and facilities were not much better. Power went out a lot! Pool was not clean enough to try. Sink did not drain properly. Restaurant was too expensive for us. Staff was helpful to direct us were to get a water taxi for snorkelling. Overall ok.

Awesome family experience
Beauiful hotel, big surprise 'out of nowhere!' Staff very friendly and helpful. Problem with the water when we arrived but was soon sorted. Probably would have been better to be up front when we arrived as we would have been more careful. Food is very expensive, and you are caught as no where else to go. Have found all the meals in New Caledonia have been very expensive. Good idea to bring what you can with you.

lovely beach bungalows on a beautiful lagoon
Malabou is at the very north of New Caledonia and is quite isolated. The drive from Noumea up the west coast can be done in one day but it would be better to take a break half way at say the Sheraton Deva Resort near Bourail. Eating out everywhere in New Caledonia is expensive and uninspiring. At Malabou there is really no other choice but the resort. We drove down the east coast, which is quite an adventure. Hienghene is spectacular and a definite over night stay. The trip is spoilt by trying to go back to Noumea all the way from Malabou in one day. Much too far on narrow windey roads especially at night with locals in a hurry to get home. There are plenty of lovely picnic spots, so next time I would buy a baguette, salad and cheese at a local shop. There was even one spot with an honour system for hiring Kayaks.

Malabou again
If you want the full 5 star experience, this is not for you. 6th visit over 3 years. This is an excellent retreat, in idyllic surrounds. Excellent smorgasbord meals, great staff and service. The revamped bungalows are a real improvement. Beach, pool and bar all excellent. Staff have good communication skills and manage the french english thing very well. Better than most in New Caledonia

Gorgeous bungalow by the sea!
The bungalows are being renovated - some are in process, others are completely new inside. It was gorgeous, with a huge comfy bed, plenty of room, a couch, and a porch with chaises - and what a view of the lagoon! The water nearly touches the lawn at high tide! Relaxing place, good for water sports, and time for walking on the beach or just reading on the porch.

Hotel close to Poum
Beautiful spot on the beach. Run down bungalows in poor conditions. Bathroom mould and all. Refurbishment program is under way. Very poor food at the restaurant and grossly overpriced. There is nowhere to go to get anything to eat as this spot is very isolated. Not much to do apart from going to the beach.
