Wellesley Resort

Ideal for a relaxed quiet holiday in a remote setting - pack some books.

Beyond our best expectations. Staff were amazing - they went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. It was a very quiet, small boutique resort - very decent sized pool. Would absolutely staff again.

Our time at the Wellesley was my favourite part about our trip to Fiji. The room was gorgeous, spacious, clean with all the amenities you could need. The resort as a whole was breathtaking, with incredibly meticulous tropical landscaping and a view of the reef from the pool and restaurant that would make you shed a tear at dinner time.
But all of that was shadowed by the elite level service we recieved by the staff on site. The chef, Raj, took in to consideration our vegetarian dietary requirements and stunned us with mouth watering food everyday. No meal was exactly the same - a true master of his craft.

The Wellesley was a lovely resort where the staff are trying their best and meals are lovely however the rooms are quite basic and could be cleaner. It’s great if you are looking to detach from technology and just enjoy the beach, but it is quite far from anything else and there isn’t much cell service. All in all if you’re looking for a private small getaway it’s a nice place to stay.

Lovely spot. Driving in was difficult due to heavy rain and condition of the driveway. Was very surprised to find out when we arrived that this is an alcohol free resort due to owners religious beliefs. This was not communicated anywhere when booking. Very disappointing and not what you expect for an adults only resort.

Beautiful surprise oasis right in valley of lush gardens. Peaceful kid-free property perfect for relaxing holiday. Bring a book to laze by the tropical pool or kayak off beach. Hands on manager Riz lovely and restaurant Jack ensures dining experience perfect with welcoming smile and nice fresh food options. Enjoyed bushwalking and fishing with local employee. Perfect spot to recharge battery. Thanks Wellesley team for a beautiful escape holiday!

this is the second time i have been to this property, i love the way this place makes me feel.
if you are after a small, quiet resort you can enjoy the beach, bush, pool & restaurant in peace and quiet, lots of time to read books, enjoy the beach, feel local (next to the village) yet totally secluded this is the place for you.
internet access is average, and you may not have a TV in your room, but you don't come here for the technology, you come to re-center and relax.
food is okay (gets boring quickly) bring LOTS of snacks, fruit, drinks (incl. water) and your own milk for your room.
yes, the breakfast is small but i personally loved the porridge and fresh fruit each morning.
yes, the place needs a bit of a re-fresh (the air-conditioning desperately needs servicing) and it would be nice if they got some new kayaks, and snorkeling gear.
if you want the big resort stuff, like big breakfasts & daily activities, go and stay at a big resort.
if you want peace, come here.

My friend and I had the best stay at Wellesley Resort. We were lucky enough to be the only guests for our first few days which was super peaceful. The property is set in the rainforest, spacious, and tranquil. Huge thanks to

Place is excellent if you want to get away from technology, extremely limited WiFi, no TV. Staff was very friendly.

Manager Riz provided exceptional service, very friendly, thoughtful and went above and beyond. Attention to detail is best way to describe such a wonderful natured human being :) The resort is very lucky to have him.

The grounds staff, kitchen and house keeping were all very welcoming and friendly x

Riz, the hotel manager and his team were great and very friendly. Highly recommend.

Very quiet and peaceful and surrounding was beautiful service by the property manager was exceptional and very personal he took very good care of you.

The staff and the grounds are amazing, with an almost private beech in front of resort and an even more private beech a few minutes walk away. The road in is rough and it is at least 30 minutes drive to the nearest store. Sadly the resort no longer operates a bar or sells alcohol so you must BYO or walk 10 minutes to the Barefoot Resort. Breakfast and dinner excellent and good value for Fiji. Would stay again but bring more supplies.

We stayed one night and it was lovely. The road there was horrendous but it was worth it for the isolation it created. Very small and minimal in set up but worth the trek. Not we’d stay too long there again due to the isolation but it was perfect for our overall holiday in Fiji.

The pool villa was fantastic. The staff were super friendly. The beach has pure white sand. Eating a coconut straight off the tree was something to remember.

A beautiful quiet place to spend a weekend
About a 10 minute drive from the main road
Lovely meals from a small menu
Staff friendly
Our villa was comfortable
Beautiful grounds and view of the ocean
At night you just hear the waves rolling in …. How peaceful

Excellent service. Thank you for a memorable stay.

Recently stayed for two weeks
The resort feels like it was built 20 years ago and nothing had been done since. It’s undeniably in a beautiful surrounding with a small village next door but definitely out of town.
Great for a pool side only holiday but food could do with some variety
Still enjoyed our time away felt very peaceful

Very private and peaceful! Talica and the staff were so helpful and friendly. You could not have a more welcoming and hospitable staff at a resort like this. I loved how private and quiet the beach is and it is so beautiful!
Yes the decking around the pool may need some work done but the pool is still great.
The food was lovely as well.
I booked in a massage by Mary at the nearby village. She has a little beach bure at the village for it and I felt so relaxed afterwards.
Just a caution for those wanting to book here, if you're taking a vehicle, you may need a car/ute that doesn't ride so low. The road can be a bit rough.

On the plus side this is a great location and the place is very clean, plus food was good. The staff were friendly but could have been more attentive, and too much loud music spoiled the atmosphere ( this was more for the staff than the customers). The resort needs some maintenance, particularly the deck around the pool which is a safety risk it is so rotten. We wouldn’t bother going back.
