"Matamanoa magic"
WONDERFUL! We are so glad we spent 4 nights/5 days on this truly fantastic little island. First up, we have absolutely no complaints. Matamanoa is exactly what you hope for in a picture perfect island (child free) resort. From the beachside welcome song to the farewell hugs we felt part of the Matamanoa staff family. Our super spacious garden bure was literally 30 seconds from the pool restaurant/pool area. Really comfortable king bed, very effective AC, nice walk in shower. The infinity pool was the centre of activity (or rather inactivity) as we (and others) chilled out on the poolside loungers occasionally slipping into the bath warm water for a refresh. When not chilling we were in the ocean. We saw sharks, squid and thousands of stunning fish when snorkelling off the beach straight in front of the resort. In addition the snorkel safari through Deep Blue was excellent value for money and we saw turtles, more sharks and the most stunning coral reef. I also did three scuba dives with Deep Blue operated by ex-pat Englishman Trev. Again awesome service, stunning dive sites and excellent value for money. Evening entertainment was provided by Alfred and three others on guitar. There was not a song they couldn’t play and we had a blast dancing and singing to their wonderful music. The breakfast (included in fare) was massive and actually carried us through to dinner. The menu changed every night and there is also a vegetarian menu. We were totally blown away by the quality of our meals, particularly the fish dishes. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Matamanoa.

"A Sparkling Gem"
At last on our twentieth trip to the Fiji Islands we finally visited Matamanoa Island Resort..
We have visited around thirty different islands all across the country and Matamanoa is the most beautiful. Each resort has its own vibe and Matamaoa’s is chilled and luxurious.
The beaches are gorgeous and the sand has an unusual silky feel underfoot. With beaches facing three directions you can find a spot out of the wind. With only about 100 guests and room to spread out you never feel crowded but there’s always someone nearby to meet.
If you prefer to swim in a pool Matamanoas pool has plenty of comfortable places to sit close to the shop, bar and amenities.
The bures are fantastic! We didn’t stay in one this trip because we were lucky to have travelled extensively in the past year. For our eighth week of being spoiled ,we chose a very comfortable hotel room to fit our budget.
My husband enjoyed some terrific one on one diving, we explored reefs offshore together on the daily snorkeling trips ( though there’s very good snorkeling from the beach if you check the tides a way “out the back” at the activities office.)
It’s a luxury adults only resort, as a retired teacher I do love children, but it’s terrific to switch off.
We WILL return to Matamanoa one day and book a Bure on the western side of the island. We’re encouraging our adult children to do the same. I totally understand why friends of ours rate it as their favourite FiJI destination after 42 visits( a dozen to Matamanoa)in as many years.

"Honeymoon in paradise"
My husband and I stayed at Matamanoa for 10 days in October and it was truly the most wonderful honeymoon we could have dreamed of. The bure and grounds were beautiful and very well kept and the views were INCREDIBLE. We loved all of the fresh fish we got to eat while we were there. And what really made our stay so incredible was the staff. Everyone was so incredibly friendly and accommodating. We went on a few excursions with Scoby and Bill and went on a few dives with Josh, Wavi, and the diving team. We had such a blast and truly the most wonderful honeymoon. We can’t wait to come back to Matamanoa Island Resort!

"Laid-Back Visit"
We arrived at the island via South Seas Cruises (resort transfers), and were greeted with singing, shell leis and friendly staff.
Our rooms were well laid out. Had AC, ceiling fans and levered windows. In room safe, hair dryer, mini fridge and coffee/tea station. Beds were very comfortable.
Staff were engaging and went out of their way to make our stay special.
Snorkeling gear and kayaks provided with your stay or pay to visit other reefs for diving/snorkeling. Amazing coral and tons of fish. Black tip sharks frequently spotted.
Food was delicious with a varied menu daily to keep you interested. Attention to good allergies was appreciated.
Great walks all over island to top lookout or beach areas.
We would go back in a heartbeat.
