We had the privilege of spending 5 nights at Botaira Beach resort for my sister's wedding over Easter. As the wedding guests had booked out all the accommodation it was pretty special - lots of spending time together in such idyllic surroundings, being so well looked after by the beautiful Fijian staff and a lovely wedding ceremony. It was a... More

Having just returned from Botaria Island Resort, I am missing it already! From our musical greeting "Bula" to our musical departure we were extremely impressed. The accomodation exceeded our expectations - a spacious comfortable bure that suited us very well and wasnt as rustic as I had thought it might be. The lighting was good, shower was adequate, and there... More

My partner and I spent a number of days at Botaira over Xmas/NY, and we were very pleased with the service and experience in general. The staff are generally very good, accommodating [I don't eat meat] and the food was cooked well. The food is Fijian fare but with a more Western breakfast including bacon, eggs and filter coffee! [filter... More

We are regulars here and will keep going back. The first time is probably the hardest as you wonder why things don't happen or happen faster. In fact, the pace is exactly why people choose to visit Botaira. The first obvious reason is that it ha some of the best snorkeling in the world, it is a protected reef and... More

My review a bit delayed but reminising today with family about our experience reminded me to tell the tripadvisor family too. We were not expecting much (based on other reviews) but were blown away. As has already been said its not 5 star accommodation. Shower was rather dribbly and it was a novelty to get hot water... a little like... More

We have just returned from an 8 day stay and our mission to "just chill out" was certainly accomplished. If you are looking for 5 star luxury forget it - try the Gold Coast. However if you want a truly genuine Fijian Island experience without all the mod cons like aircon, pool and TV then this holiday venue might be... More

My wife and I have just returned from our 3rd visit to Botaira and we have to say that Jerry and Alumita continue to give holiday makers the truly best Fijian holiday experience. From being welcomed by Ase, her words to us were "welcome home" to the Xmas and New Years celebrations the entire 10 nights were so relaxing. The... More

My husband and I, and our 8 year-old daughter enjoyed a 4 night stay in Botaira a couple of months ago. It was just perfect! We arrived to Fijian musicians, a flower lei, and delicious fruit juice. The snorkelling just off the beach was the most fantastic that we've experienced (and we had just returned from a trip to Australia's... More

When my husband, Ray, proposed to me a year ago I knew I wanted a Fijian wedding because I love Fijian people and I wanted to elope - just him and me. I wasn't after anything expensive - just a simple ceremony on a beach on some island which had a nice reef for snorkelling while we were there and... More
