Beautiful

The welcome, the nature of the staff, the setting and the farewell. The accommodation was beautiful. The staff were all extremely helpful and willing to assist in whichever way they can; particularly thanks to Kelera helping to organise a private dinner too. The daily trip/activity options were great; taking off the burden of excessive planning. We really enjoyed the snorkeling, the singing and music throughout the stay; incredible. Individual staff were so talkative and friendly. Huge thanks to all the staff for making this such an enjoyable trip for myself and my new fiancé.

Worth knowing

There isnt't much to criticise. If anything, we felt the food was overcooked on a couple occasions (chicken, wula). I would suggest adjusting timing. It would be nice to have an option for simple breakfasts too; muesli, yoghurts, fruit, etc.; a continental type option, say.

The nightly music was lovely during dinner. The food was pretty good and the majority of the staff were lovely.

Worth knowing

Not a huge amount to do, especially when the weather turns. Unfortunately there were so many maintenance issues in our room that it distracted from our stay.

Amazing resort with amazing staff

Absolutely amazing property with the most amazing staff! It was by far our favorite resort on our multi island trip and we can’t wait to be back!!! Every staff member was outstanding. The bed was very comfortable and we loved our room overlooking the beach. My husband finished his PADI open water dive course with Bill from Purple Turtle Divers. The dive team is top notch and Bill was an excellent instructor. Safety comes first and the whole dive shop is operated excellently. Out of all the dive shops on our trip, this one stood out with best team, best boats, best safety and also the most fish and sea life on every dive. The dive team ensured to always find a calm spot to dive even if it was choppy elsewhere. The Yassawas were disappointing after our stay at Matamanoa.

Worth knowing

There was really only two things that could have been improved on. 1) We had to always hunt someone down for towels. 2) food was ok but not our favorite. I really wish that each meal had one Fijian dish as an option. I really don’t want to eat western food while in the South Pacific, I was looking for fresh seafood and local options. Also the western food sometimes missed the mark. But I happily overlook the food for everything else that was phenomenal

Not too far by ferry/water taxi, and has its own coral reef to snorkel from beach, or you can pay for boats for snorkeling or diving. Nice pool, restaurant, bar, staff, & ambiance.
