We had a wonderful stay at Kingfisher Pacific Resort & Spa. The setting is beautiful, the grounds…read moreare very well kept, and the views over the water are gorgeous. It has a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere that really makes you want to slow down and enjoy the property. One of our favorite parts was the outdoor fire garden area. We spent quite a bit of time sitting outside by the fire and taking in the views, and it was such a nice way to end the day. The cave experience was also incredibly unique and unlike anything we had done before. It made the stay feel much more memorable and special

We went to the Kingfisher on Christmas Eve to the Sky Dome dinner. It was absolutely lovely and…read moreincredibly relaxing. I was a bit worried it might be cold, but it was perfectly comfortable -- the heater kept the temperature just right. There were blankets provided on the chairs, though we didn't even need them. Dinner was a set menu with two choices, and the whole experience lasted about three hours. It truly felt special and memorable. I would highly recommend it, especially for a special occasion.

I scored lower than 5 on the above review for a couple of reasons…read more (1) When I was called about confirming the reservation, the host did not explain why they were calling to offer our group different rooms (had booked a room with two double beds and were asked about a room with a single double bed and sofabed instead). (2) In one of the rooms where I slept with another occupant, there was a condensing unit that was dripping. This kept us awake. I was able to obtain earplugs from the customer service desk (helpful). However, upon check-out, we received an apology about the dripping unit. It was implied that it was our own fault that we had chosen not to rebook a different room. Had there been any inclination that there was an issue with the room, of course, we would have rebooked. So, not only were we *not* told that there was an issue with the room, but we were met with resistance and as one of the checkout folks said, "gentle suggestion for next time, accept the offer of another room to rebook". I was annoyed but kept this to myself and instead said would they please address their unit. Anyway - I will make sure not to stay there again.

The massage was also not great, spent 80% of the time on my right leg and then 20% on my left which was very odd and uneven. Will not be coming back.
