What a nice resort to work with! I was coming in on a cruise ship and thought we wouldn't make it to the boat on time, and they were very reassuring and even offered a later boat. The boat ride there was beautiful, although a little noxious with the fumes accumulating in the seating area during any slowing or stopped points. You have the option to sit inside with the door closed, however.

Once we got there, we had about an hour and a half before our conservation tour of the land would start. We got some coffee from the cafe which was extremely bitter. Then we went down to the beach area to swim. We were surprised to find jellyfish everywhere! But after asking registration about them, they were only harmless moon jellyfish. We were safe to swim, but the beach was really one to just lay back and swim at. It was small, right off the restaurant, and not exactly the Sandy Beach we thought we were coming to. They did offer kayaks, but all of the two person ones were taken when we got there (we had small children).

Hammock land was beautiful! About a dozen hammocks swinging right by the water. 
The conservation tour was a very well done experience. My kids couldn't stop talking about the underwater observatory and the pigs. I was under the impression that feeding the birds was included, but that was not the case.

They then took us back to the pier, which was only a 6 or 7 minute walk from the iSite.

Really enjoyed it here: we went on the nature trail around the area which was good value, enjoyed the food, and loved the service. Highly recommended! Family friendly but great for any age and configuration.

Perhaps more of an attraction to do with kids or as a family. I went on my own (20 year old male) and although I had a good time, I kind of ran out of things to do after about an hour and a half... Would have been better if I had a companion but that's my own bad planning rather than the place itself. With the right people, would be great!

Before we travelled out we checked whether our dog would be welcome.  The amenities listed 'pet friendly'.  On  arrival by boat our dog was rejected.  'No dogs allowed'.  Left dog and husband on boat in sweltering heat.  Took my daughter's to get lunch, only to walk past a dog asleep on the steps.  Suggestion would be to clearly state on all information sites about Lochmara Lodge, 'No Dogs allowed'.

This is just an excellent place in the middle of paradise! Lovely short walks and connection to the queen Charlotte track. It is just a slice of paradise to explore: by foot or the free kajaks. Bonus: they have a talking parrot
