이메지네이션 아일랜드(Imagination Island)

Such an awesome place to rest and recharge away from hustle and bustle and just simple living. Power is via generator and only for a few hours each day with solar fans keeping the air moving at night while you sleep. This adds to the sense of escape and the peace and tranquility of the island. Our hut was over the water with the most incredible views of the volcano opposite. A huge deck and hammocks for relaxing, table and chairs for games nights and comfortable beds for restful sleeping. Separate bathroom with composting toilet which worked beautifully. Each day our hot water thermos was refilled so we could have a cuppa on the deck with basic amenities supplied. The staff are super friendly and welcoming and can't do enough to make your trip more comfortable. Plenty of options for tours from the island at reasonable rates. We were on a diving trip and Dive Gizo picked us up each day to travel to a different dive sight. Two dives a day with lunch on a different island in-between. Diving was amazing, especially the war ship and plane. Food was typical Solomon Island ware. Fresh seafood, chips and rice/salad. Basic but wholesome and limited choices but always satisfying. Snorkelling around and under the restaurant was our absolute favourite pastime with beautiful coral and thousands of fish and the resident black tip sharks cruising around with us. Water temperature was like a bath, so comfortable for spending many hours swimming and snorkelling. The resort offers free activities such as paddle boarding, kayaking etc to help fill in time. Communication with Alphonsus is best via Facebook Messenger as wifi on the island is very patchy. Don't expect to be scrolling social media while here, again another benefit of this island, forcing us to switch off from everything. So, if you are in need of unplugging from the rat race then pack a great book and come to Imagination Island and simply breathe and relax. Our family loved the relaxed nature of this island and its people. Thanks Alphonsus and staff for the best week of rest we have had in a long time. We thoroughly enjoyed your company and wish you all well. Toni

You are on an island - must take a boat to the airport or to the town of Gizo. Beautiful views, good snorkeling around the property. Nice breezes at night.
