Such a beautiful island! Really enjoyed relaxing in the pure natural environment.
The spa in the forest bure with the ocean view is spectacular, and also the snorkling trip was private and had lots of marine life to explore. We were in love with this island, and will go back.
The staff was amazing. As a solo traveler, friendly and engaging staff can make the difference between an ok stay and a great stay. The Matamanoa crew was the absolute best!

25th Wedding Anniversary
We were married on Matamanoa Island 25yrs ago. It was beautiful to come back, not just to the resort, but to the people. Family members of those who were in my wedding party are employed there and we're so pleased to see the photos of their aunties, their mum and my warrior still works on the Island. Many thanks to Kelerna for her special efforts in making the memory a lasting one!

The staff were all fabulous. We were initially not impressed with state of bathroom but this was promptly rectified and cleaning was good for the remaining days.
Our bure was fantastic- a few steps from the sand and it had great outdoor area with private plunge pool and day bed.
Breakfast and lunch menus stayed unchanged. They need to anticipate running out of some food items before it actually happens. Food at dinner was generally good and the menu changed daily.
Overall we very much enjoyed our stay.Recommend it for a very quiet lazy time.

There are some absolute plusses about this property and some definite negatives. Overall, we had a good visit but would not return. Itโs not 4 star and below par of a Club Med. ok if you need a budget trip. The beach front bure on sandy beach is perfect. Great snorkeling off beach. Negatives are mgmt runs it as cheap as possible and food at breakfast and lunch is inedible (had to rely on protein bars) dinner was good. Safety issues of glass not plastic for cocktails in and around pool! Coconut trees not maintained right over chairs and walkways and we saw several fall, very dangerous to not maintain. Staff great but works 15 hrs a day for a month or more with lower pay. They ship laundry to main island so they run out of towels. Used bath and beach towels for several days and had to demand new ones. Wanted to hike up to top of mtn and asked staff who didnโt know how to get there! Mostly retired people on a budget, so just know what youโre getting into. Another couple after arriving was looking to move to another resort. There are ones run far better there we have stayed at, so we know it can be done. I talked to mgr, mostly about horrible food and towels, and he didnโt even respond or say a word and just looked angry. He runs it cheaply and didnโt like being told it wasnโt ok.

Wunderschรถne Insel mit sehr freundlichem Personal
Sehr freundliche, kleine, familiรคre Anlage mit schรถnen Zimmern. Das Riff ist wunderschรถn. Das Essen ist recht teuer, dafรผr das Wasser trinkbar. Wunderschรถne Aussicht vom Pool. Es ist ein kleines Stรผck Paradies. Man kann Kayaks benutzen und um die Insel paddeln, toll!

We recently had a seven nights stay on the island and it was really wonderful. Even though it was the wet season, we were lucky with the weather and only had a little rain. Although it was very very hot but that didnโt matter because we spent all day in the water!
The staff were absolutely fantastic, you couldnโt fault them. They were so friendly and lovely and looked after us so well, especially our daughter who needed a gluten-free diet. The chef was always happy to adjust the meals and even baked fresh bread and cakes for her while we were there.
The staff in the dive shop were fabulous as well, especially David our dive master and the two boat captains. The entertainment was lovely as well and in general everybody was so accommodating.
The burrs were absolutely beautiful and all the facilities were really great. It was very quiet in the resort as it is low season so donโt expect a lot of vibe at this time of year (Jan) but if youโre looking for relaxation this place is hard to beat. We have been to several different island resorts in Fiji and this really was one of our favourites if youโre looking for quiet and relaxation in an absolutely beautiful environment. The snorkelling off the beach and the diving was really world-class. We hope to go back and would recommend the island unreservedly!

Matamanoa magic
Loved our stay at Matamanoa - beautiful location, stunning beach, beautiful, well appointed bures, good snorkelling off the beach, stunning sunsets. The food was good , ample servings but could be improved with more fresh salads and fresh vegetables. The staff are absolutely wonderful and could not do enough for us. We will be back to this little piece of paradise. Bula Vinaka, Sota Tale

This was an amazing resort! Quiet island, with no cars and adults only. Staff was great, friendly and helpful. Would definitely would go back to the resort! Loved the beachfront villa, with privacy, lots of outdoor seating and the plunge pool was amazing! Gorgeous landscaping done on the island, with amazing views. More food options at the restaurant would be nice, and more lighting for the walk way at night would be recommended, especially by the bridge. Loved that each room on the island was it's own separate little "hut/villa." I do wish on check in that the staff let us know of the layout of the island and where our room was, vs hoping on a golfcart (facing backwards) and taken to your room. I small map which shows where you are and where you're going would have been helpful. We walked one hiking trail but never found the second one, which we would have done if told about where/how to access this. We enjoyed the activities offered here, both free and the paid snorkeling adventures. We would definitely recommend and hope to visit again soon!

We have vacationed at Matamanoa over 12 times over a 30 year period. Breakfast is good however dinner has not improved and is not of an acceptable standard (and we donโt have high expectations on a Fijian island!). What happened to the friendly Fijian staff (except for Lucas who was friendly and smiley).
We will be looking for an alternative island for our next Fijian adventure. Our transfers were via Purple Turtle and we highly recommend Trev and his team.
