Great snorkeling. Dive school was awesome. Food preference noted. Cool views from the room.. Gorgeous shower.

Like it all but would have been nice to have a fridge in the room.

Gorgeous location, snorkelling and friendly staff, but a bit disorganised.

8.0

Stunning snorkeling! The Bure was gorgeous and clean, with stunning view of the beach. So many activities, and the facilities were all fantastic. The staff are also super friendly, especially the guy that welcomed us to the island when we arrived. Also really fantastic conservation activities, we really appreciated all the education on the marine issues and conservation efforts. We wish we spent more time here!

Food was not great, meals were hit and miss. Wifi was average and process for arrivals was disorganised. We received a lot of conflicting information. Also they definitely run on 'fiji time' meaning we spent a lot of time just waiting around for things to start, once waited over 45 minutes for an activity to start.

Natural resort

As everywhere in Fiji staff is very kind and friendly. My hut was perfect. Very near to beach in the green. Good corals for snorkeling.

Vegetarian food could better. Chef can have some inspiration in Indian cusine. ✌️🙏
