Visitor Reviews
ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING WAS AMAZING! Tolani Resort is the definition of a perfect vacation spot. From the moment we arrived, to the amazing staff and the incredibly spacious rooms – everything was just perfect. The staff are unbelievably kind, attentive, polite, and absolutely respectful – they really made us feel so welcome. We stayed in the Tropical Pool Villa and we’re still raving about it. The privacy was something we really valued (perfect for hijabis!). The beds were unbelievably comfortable and the villa was equipped with everything you could need – big hairdryer, shampoo, shower gel, even a beach bag and hat. The cleanliness of the whole resort is truly impressive. Our room, pool, and terrace were cleaned daily. Breakfast was super tasty, with a medium-sized selection that was more than enough and really high quality. We didn’t use the main outdoor pool much since we had our own, but we loved sitting there in the evenings with the stunning view over the open sea – just magical. The reception team was available 24/7 via WhatsApp, which was super convenient. Tolani is also very well located – it’s just a short ride to Lamai, where you can enjoy the night market or relax at the beautiful Lamai Beach. I definitely recommend renting a scooter, as it makes you much more flexible – you can even rent one directly through the resort.
We had a wonderful stay at the Tolani Resort. The service was incredibly warm and professional. 🥰 We stayed in a lovely garden room and even received a two‑night upgrade to a pool villa, which was such a kind and generous surprise. The whole team was truly heartwarming. 🫶🏽Whether at the reception, during breakfast, or the housekeeping and maintenance staff who always greeted us with a smile — everyone made us feel welcome. We also enjoyed a great massage and delicious food at the resort. The location is a bit away from the busy areas, which makes it perfect if you want to relax and unwind. Thank you to the entire team for this wonderful stay. We wish you all the very best and would love to come back. 🤗🙏 Michelle & Désirée
Tolani was an amazing stay for my wife, my 9 month old son and I. We messaged them ahead of time asking if thye had a bottle sanitizer for our son's milk bottles which they didn't, however they organised a brand new one for our stay! The staff were so kind and helpful - we really loved staying here. Food was good, massages were great. Thank you Tolani staff for a great holiday
