"This is a great option for families with young kids. There are two bedroom apartments and they provide cots and high chairs free of charge. We used the high chairs and they were new and safe. The pool is great but not heated. Kids will love it, parents will get in on sunny days. The apartments are so centrally located. Walk to the bakery, IGA, lots of places to eat. It is right next door to the only public playground on the island and they have an access gate directly to it. Great for toddlers/preschoolers. There's also a little skate park and a rugby field there. You need to request fresh towels a day in advance which is a little annoying (unless you stay 8 days - we stayed 7 days). The internet is free but woeful. Download everything you need before you go or head over to the pizza place, which has fantastic internet. If you plan to work here, you'll need to get a local sim to get your own internet happening. Staff are friendly, everything is clean, there are guest laundries ($5 per load, $5 for the dryer) and many hills hoists to dry wet gear (if it's not raining!). Bring some indoor activities for the kidlets. Half our week was wet and no reception ABC kids on the TV (they got some other stations, just not everything). The Olive cafe has kids toys and books. Prinke Eco Store has seasonal fruit, brown rice crackers and is kid friendly. The lavender farm has kids toys and great baked potatoes (and Sunday sesh vibes) - Sunday only. Bakery is great for kids (and adults!). Also of businesses have wifi available for customers. There's a kids book swap down near Anglicare past the knitwear shop. Bring some good quality books to read, then add to their collection. There's also an opp shop near the Folk Museum which had a few toys but could use some good quality toy donations, if you bring something you are aging out of."

"Upon arrival we were greeted by the manager and taken to our room. The rooms were very clean. A generous starter breakfast was provided (fresh bread, butter pats, spreads, 200ml milk and small carton of fruit juice. The beds were very comfortable. The units are not new but seem reasonably well maintained."

"A great place to stay on Norfolk Island. Rooms had what you wanted and the staff were fantastic, always a smile snd hello and happy to help. Breakfast was good as were tha lunches I had there on 2 days. The hotel caters well for Tour Groups be they large or small. Keep up the good work."

"We always use Trip Advisor when booking accommodation and it is easy to see why the Castaway was rated number 1 by travellers. We had a lovely apartment which was larger than what we expected. Room was clean and comfortable with everything we needed. The owners of the hotel are lovely friendly people, as we found all locals to be, but they went further than what one would normally expect. The day after arriving, our hosts arranged for a hire car for us, but it was not available until 12:30pm. This normally would not have been a problem, except that we needed to do some food shopping and most shops closed at 12:00. We were offered their private vehicle so that we could do our shopping which was a very pleasant and welcome surprise. All the team at the hotel we found to be friendly and helpful. Pizza night on Fridays is not to be missed as they are some of the best pizzas we have had for quite some time. Also the local beers brewed by their brewery are all recommended. We have no hesitation in recommending the Castaway and would obviously stay there again if we visited Norfolk Islnd again"

"Convenient quiet location, within walking distance to Burnt Pine town centre. Well equipped, comfortable and spotlessly clean apartment. Choice of one or two bedrooms. Generous quantity of bath towels supplied."

"We flew into Norfolk Island for a week long visit, staying at Ocean Breeze Cottages. The accommodation is close to town and all attractions, being centrally located towards the southern end of the island. The views across the ocean and islands are magnificent. Housekeeping of the accommodation and care of the large surrounding grounds is absolutely immaculate. There was everything you needed in the well laid out cottages. Nights were very peaceful, dark and quiet, perfect for a relaxing nights sleep. During the day the breezes kept things comfortable. We highly recommend this accommodation and would have no hesitation visiting this stunning island again."

"Poinciana Cottages are well appointed units in close proximity to the town centre with many local restaurants and clubs delivering great food options. The hosts Jackie and Peter met us with a friendly welcome and provided many island insights for our two week stay. They regularly offered home produce and access to the vegetable garden to compliment our own supplies . The units were clean and comfortable with a private balcony overlooking the valley. It was so quiet and peaceful and made you realise you were on holidays in a stress free environment. A fantastic holiday with many memorable moments. A place to be recommended. Thank you Jackie and Peter"

"The location was central to Burnt Pine and easy walking distance to shops. The atmosphere was friendly and welcoming. The room was large and with a scenic outlook. The area was quiet and I enjoyed being woken up by a rooster crowing. The service was friendly and accommodating. The meals were nutritious. I would be happy to stay at South Pacific Resort Hotel when I revisit Norfolk Island."

"Fabulous location, perfect to watch the Sun & Moon rise. Wonderful accommodation, clean beyond expectation! The property is 5 to 10 minutes from everywhere! We would highly recommend Whispering Pines to anyone looking to stay on the Island."
