One of the finest resorts I've been to while not being overly lux and reasonably priced. Helpful smiling staff. Amazing food quality and variety. Well appointed quiet rooms. Vacant beach! A huge nature reserve adjacent, worth exploring with trained guides on premises.

The access to the nature reserve was excellent, with the staff and service all top notch. A great experience for out of the city, and a very well managed resort.

We really enjoyed our stay, room was lovely with fantastic views of the gardens and ocean. Only downside I would say is the service around the pool is very slow. We also wasn't keen on the chinese restaurant, but really enjoyed the teppanyaki. Also enjoyed our time around the sunset bar until the sand flies come out.

Beautiful hotel in a peaceful location. The staff were all so kind and helpful, the amenities were plentiful and the options for food / activities were great. We found a lovely farm to table restaurant (Land Eco Farm) about a 10 min drive from the hotel which I would recommend for a sunset seafood dinner!

Here's a draft of your review for posting on Expedia:

**Rating: 3/5**
We recently stayed at the Shangri-La resort and had a mixed experience. While the service and facilities were generally good, there were a couple of significant drawbacks.
Firstly, the prices within the resort were surprisingly high, comparable to major Australian cities. This made dining and other activities quite expensive, which didn't feel reasonable considering the location.
Secondly, the beach, which is a key feature of the resort, was disappointing. Due to ocean currents, the beach was dirty and lacked the expected tropical charm. This was a major letdown as a beautiful beach is central to the appeal of a beach resort.
Overall, while the service and amenities were commendable, the high prices and underwhelming beach detracted from our overall experience.
