The location for its proximity to dining is excellent. Many choices just 2 minutes walk from the property. The location is also perfect for the beach as there is currently only 1 place where swimming is permitted in Noumea - just 5 minutes walk from Casa del Sole. The views are absolutely amazing. Aircon in the bedrooms worked well. As noted by previous reviews, there are no sharp knives so we took our own. When you check in it states that no consumables are provided - toilet paper (although there was a small roll in each toilet), dishwashing liquid, cleaning supplies and laundry powder. We took our own toilet paper but did not know about the other things. Someone had commented that the small grocery shop is no longer there but it is just to the left when you exit the main doors. They had a variety of basic food items, pastries in the morning and alcohol. The pool area was nice but just a windy location as it is not at ground level. Some information on the Expedia listing needs updating - there is no bike hire, no sign of a spa. The bus stop to town is 2 mins walk which was great. You can pay cash on the bus for a one-way journey - day passes can only be bought in town. Aquarium is 2 mins walk and Burger King is 3 mins walk. Casino supermarket was 15 mins walk (near the marina).
We would stay here again but would ask for a room on the opposite side (facing Anse Vata) away from the restaurant music that lasts until at least 3am.
