Okay but potential to be very good

We stayed in a 32 room dorm and I found it quite good. Was impressed by this. The location by the beach was great! Pizzas were lovely too! The staff was so fab!

We stayed in a 32 room dorm and I found it quite good. Was impressed by this. The location by the beach was great! Pizzas were lovely too! The staff was so fab!

Worth knowing

The toilets were drop down toilets which I was not aware of and they were quite a distance from the dorms. The shower pressure was very hit or miss (a bench in the showers would be great - nowhere to set ur clothes to get dressed into). The food was disappointing for the price you pay. The breakfast was awful - stale croissants.

Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to experience great snorkelling

The staff and restaurant food were great - all the staff were very friendly and helpful. Their talents were spread across their resort jobs as well as singing and dancing for guests. The resort is a bit older but our Beach Villa room was lovely and everywhere was very clean. Being able to walk out of our villa straight onto the beach and the beautiful coral reef to snorkel in was amazing

Worth knowing

There is a bit of a sewage whiff sometimes but I found this was common in other accommodation places we stayed at in Fiji.

Makai and Maciu were incredible

Worth knowing

The food package did not live up to our expectations, for the amount you pay we expected better food. We also got a WhatsApp message with out exakt dates and details that said to enter card details, but it wasn’t their own WhatsApp. When I told the personal about it they didn’t seem to care. Luckily I understood that it might be a scam, however I could have and other people definitely can fall for it. Makes me question how the got my details.

Nice stay

First restaurant on the islands where I wasn’t constantly hungry. Probably best restaurant with quality and good portions. Nice resort, has beaches on both sides, so you can find a not windy spot. Also nice sunrises and sunsets. Nice walk around the island.

Worth knowing

Almost no other activities than Mantaray snorkeling. Long drop toilet in the center of resort. Flushed only behind restaurant. Massage seemed overpriced for the experience.
