This resort is way ahead of it's time. It's located on the end of a small private trail road where the tropical jungle meets a private beach and lagoon. The main building and the bures are elegant, spacious with walls of glass. The owners take pride in servicing their guests in every way. The cuisine was flavorful, well presented, a... More

Was meant to visit the resort with some mates they pulled out, so went on my own Nigel No friends. But hey I loved it - Donna and Brian were terrific hosts and the staff were very cool and relaxed in their Fijian ways. The resort would be perfect for those with older children and for families that love surfing!... More

My husband and I just got back from spending the winter Holidays at this resort. There are no words to express how beautiful the setting is and the family atmosphere! The owners, Donna and Brian, make a personal commitment to ensure you are always taken care of whether it be for a massage, mosquito spray or spending a day in... More

We spent a week at this lovely resort Dec 2011 and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. My husband is a keen surfer and he sums it up by saying you can't beat warm water first class waves every day. He even did quite a bit of fishing and they would bring back the fresh fish that would be served as sushi by... More

Amazing, unforgettable, family surf resort. Donna and Brain are incredible hosts providing whatever you may need. The gourmet food is truly second to none. The staff was very freindly and fun. They were always willing to take you out surfing or play a game of volleyball. The surf was fantastic with great spots close to the resort you will always... More

I came for two nights stayed for six and wished I could have made it a month. Amazing location, great rooms and exceptional hosts. Brian and Donna make it feel like you are simply staying with friends and nothing is too much trouble and the staff make sure that you want for nothing. Surfer or otherwise there is plenty to...

My wife booked a massage in the morning for the afternoon and was told its not worth the massure only doing one booking so no. If its low tide early... More

Just reading a few of these reviews has made me homesick for Matanivusi! We had a fantastic 9 days there and I just have to say in regard to the negative review you get a few pages along, I think this man must have a permanent rain cloud above his head! We had so much fun and relaxation. It really... More
