Reception was lovely, check in not till 3pm we arrived at 2pm. So went up to the pool to have a drink relax and wait. Wait is what happens there, no acknowledgement from bar staff when standing at the bar. Didnt know what a vodka lime and soda was. Everything there was slow on oth occasions at the bar.

The stay at Melanesian was average this time around. There was issues with bed bugs in my room. The hotel staff changed my room however the new room's air condition was not working. I was then shifted to another room. The extension to the reception was down for almost 4 days during my stay.

A very short trip to get an idea of the PV vibe. I found the hotel to be ideal - good position, nice pool and bar, complimentary brekkie buffet and a great balcony. Really got a good feeling of the town with a pool retreat!
