Excusions off the island are somewhat limited
In a nutshell

The most relaxed ever
All inclusive - Beach Villas: Avoid disappointment - get there early
Martinwhipp Says: When you are staying in the Beach villas, as we did, you have a set restaurant that is yours as far as all inclusive goes. There are others that you can pay extra for - but why bother unless you have a really special occasion.The restaurant we used was reasonably varied day...
Martinwhipp Says: Between the two restaurants for the beach bungalows and villas is the Babuna Bar, a massive area which has a stage and recreation area for games, loads of tables, and of course the bar.Evening entertainment mostly consisted of various live acts from nearby islands singing...
Martinwhipp Says: There are two ways to get around the Island of Kuredu.1. In your bare feet2. In your flip-flopsMight I suggest the former, but carry the latter with you for the sharp corally bits on the north shore.
If you need it, take it with you
HOGGY88 Says: The only supply shop in Kuredu which is also the internet shop, I found to be quite expensive for just about everything. A little disappointing as there was the usual display of souveniers that we would have liked to bring home.Items of decorative jewellery are not marked to...
Martinwhipp Says: Just a small thing, but important if you are intending to visit some fo the local inhabited islands.Women must cover up their Shoulders and Knees.Minor, I know - but it could stop you from having to buy a sarong on the island!
Ants, ants, ants! They're bloody everywhere!
Martinwhipp Says: Just a thought - at certain times of year there can be a problem with airborne insects such as mosquitoes etc.We visited Kuredu in October and there was nothing airborne, but there were hundreds of sand-ants.You cant feel them until it's too late - so get that repellent on!...
ArianaR Says: Although in some shops in the airport you can buy the same souvenirs they sell in the resorts for a lower price, the food was very expensive.Make sure you eat a big breakfast the day you leave. We had a very small breakfast and then headed off to the airport. We had a few...
ArianaR Says: Very light, breathable clothing. We didn't leave the island and the gift shop had a very limited toiletry section.We brought Immodium AD instants (which we used once each). Plenty of sunscreen, and aftersun lotion.Headache tablets (incase of hangover). underwater camera...
Martinwhipp Says: If, like me you are interested in astronomy, and you have only ever seen northern skies, then this is a good place to dip you toe in to the delights of the southern hemisphere.Being so near to the equator means that the pole star almost sits on the northern horizon, giving...
ArianaR Says: My favorite thing about Kuredu is the feeling I got when I looked out into the ocean. Everyday it was just as beautiful an exciting, it is the most amazing place I have ever been.As if it isn't already perfect enough, we got the Him n' Her massage......pure bliss. For $130...
