4.5 star ratingNo jetted bathtub as statedgreenfrog09 April 2013
5.0 star ratingThe new sand bottomed lagoon pool is amazing but we still love the infinity pool that overlooks the sea. Free, fast internet was excellent. Balconies were private. Enjoyed the complimentary bevarages and casino vouchers that we were handed at check in. Appreciate the free tennis, bike hire and golf course. Plenty of entertainment on site but it was quiet when we got back to the room. Comfy beds, free shuttle to town. Very nice walking through the Botanic Gardens accross the road.BronV09 April 2013

4.0 star ratingBeautiful facilities, reasonable value and fantastic view of the ocean.We were a bit disappointed to find a dark (blood?) stain on one of our pillows visible through the pillow case.klaz17 April 2013

5.0 star ratingVery clean comfortable room. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Lots of restaurants with top quality food. Swimming pools, exercise room, availability of golf. Free internet. Went there after a driving trip to Kununura and a lot of bushwalking. Skycity provided a much needed rest before returning to the real world.If you are not into gambling stay somewhere else.01 May 2013
3.5 star ratingLarge comfortable room with good services and range of meals and activities available.I stayed for 4 days (this was my 3rd visit) in early September 2014 and was disappointed by the lack of attention to servicing my room. There was no evidence of the room having been vacuumed each day and the wash basin and shower both had hairs remaining indicating they had not been cleaned properly. I expected more as my previous experience had been excellent. I guess it only takes one individual to give the place a poor rating. That person should be identified and "counselled".
