Paradise Cove Resort

10/10 Excellent

"We had the incredible good fortune to be posted on the Piper Rose catamaran run by this hotel. Initially, we were completely surprised to find ourselves on the boat, as we booked last minute and Expedia did not make it clear. we were booking a room on a catamaran rather than at the resort (which they should probably clarify but the resort’s web page does make this more clear). But it was a positive surprise of a lifetime. The catamaran is a new business for this resort, with 4 cabins -, in our case, we rented one of them and we shared about with another family. The boat is absolutely exquisite, gorgeous, and luxurious spaces to eat, rest, and enjoy the sailing. Everything was impeccably, clean, and well run. But the great surprise of all was the staff - from the captain to those who took care of the tiniest details, we were treated with such care and great company that extended far beyond ordinary hospitality. The only downside was that we had to leave…. So fortunate are those that get to experience this luxury and hospitality!"

Snorkeling with sharks (homestay)

10/10 Excellent

"This homestay was a highlight. The home is in the most unreal location, the best view on the island! You've got the space to yourself. Bill and Polla were very welcoming and inviting and the food was the best food I've ever had. The food is out of this world. We did all the activities and had great fun with all, especially the fishing. Good value too. Friendly people all through the village, great kids and its great to have had the opportunity to meet the locals. Communication was easy and accommodation had everything you need. No complaints. Just bring things to do yourself if you are there for a while!"

Naqalia Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"As soon as we stepped onto the boat we were greeted with a big smile from the wonderful Manager of Naqalia Lodge. Everyone there made us feel so welcome and treated us like family. There were two rules at Naqalia Lodge: 1. Eat as much as you can and 2. Wake up every day with a happy face. Pretty easy considering the outlook from our bungalow, the variety of delicious food and the beautiful, happy people who run Naqalia Lodge. The accomodation is basic so don’t come here if you are precious. Cold showers only. Our bed was huge and clean and comfortable. Whilst on their land, you are family. The reef is teeming with fish and colourful coral so snorkelling is a delight. There is a compulsory meal plan which was great value ( especially if you eat lots as you can go back and fill your plate until the food is gone!) Each day there is a different selection of delicious food, served buffet style. There is tea and coffee available all day and a cake or yummy treat left over from the morning meal which is available until it’s all eaten. You can drink their tank water ( we did with no problem). We had a fabulous time at Naqalia Lodge. We left with lots of happy memories, warm hearts ( and bigger bellies !!) and we will definitely be back again."

Barefoot Kuata Island Resort Fiji

8/10 Good

"I absolutely loved this unique island. I especially loved the sound of the waves at night; it was the best island experience for someone living in the city like me. Waking up in the morning to the sunrise was breathtaking. The staff were incredibly welcoming and friendly, and the food was plentiful and varied. I'd definitely come back and stay three nights next time."

Korovou Eco Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"We went with open minds after reading mixed reviews. The staff were great and so accommodating. The food was amazing. The facilities are basic but we expected that. The trip to coral garden was epic. Unfortunately we didn't see any manta ray but maybe next time. Oh and there was water in the swimming pool. We had a great time and incredible snorkeling experiences"

Fijian family community stay in paradise.

10/10 Excellent

"My friends and I booked this stay at the last minute because we wanted an adventure and to get a feel for the 'real' Fiji. This homestay did not disappoint. Our host Bill and his wife Paula were absolutely wonderful. Bill is an excellent communicator who is prompt, professional and honest. He happily answered all of our questions and organised all of our transport and activities. Paula is an incredible chef and every meal we ate was full of local produce, either grown on their farm or caught on the reef. We were even lucky enough to score a crayfish dinner at no extra cost. During our time on Wayasewa, we explored the village and school, toured Bill's farm, met countless friendly people, attended a beautiful Church service, participated in a Kava Ceremony with the Village Chief and got to go snorkelling with Manta Rays and Reef Sharks. In addition to this, Bill is a wealth of knowledge and we all learned so much about Fijian history, life and culture from our conversations with him. Our 3 nights on Wayasewa were the highlight of our two week stay in Fiji and all four of us feel that we got exceptional value for money. If you're looking for a five star resort, this isn't the stay for you, but if you're wanting an authentic insight into how people really live in a Fijian village, then this is the best homestay you will ever find. It is wonderful to know that the money we spent over our stay all goes to these lovely people and the development of their beautiful village."

Navutu Stars Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was excellent. Comfortable bed, clean spacious extremely private rooms, HOT SHOWER, beachfront (multiple sandy walkable beaches), GREAT food, Staff is STELLAR, daily excursions, 24 hour bar, 3 of the sweetest dogs, yoga, kayaks and SUP boards, hiking, and DON'T MISS the massage..... I got one everyday- Anna and Aggie have magic in their hands. Fijian hospitality is by far the best I have experienced in the world, hands down. Book it- its worth the journey! Vinaka, Navutu."
