Ate here on 3 occasions - never had a bad meal. All food was excellent, seasoned well with brilliant flavours. The ribs were so tender, fish fresh and drinks were always flowing. Top off with an excellent location - Oceans restaurant is a winner in my mind.

Breakfasts were brilliant. Have had trouble in the past getting a runny poached or fried egg when in the Islands but this trip they were exactly the way we asked for them 6 out of the 7 mornings. We ate here 3 nights also and again the food was great. The lady running this restaurant does a great job.

Loved this place for a great buy 1 get 1 free happy hour. Delicious mocktails perfect for a non drinker and beers on ice for the beers lovers. We thought this was the best place to enjoy a happy hour on Raro. Also went to their Thursday night Islad night- great value for very tasty buffet and excellent show.

We loved everything on this menu, the calamari was amazing! Sushimi- wow! and the Ribs were to die for... Oceans really should be the award winning restaurant on Crown Beach The Chef James was great, we went fishing with Akura one of the days we were there and caught some yellow fin tuna, we brought one back to the restaurant...
