Pros:

My stay here was nothing short of amazing. If you are looking for a peaceful getaway with a relaxing island atmosphere, this is the perfect place. The scenery from the deck overlooking the calm, pristine sea was absolutely breathtaking and instantly soothing.

The accommodation was excellent and had everything I needed throughout my stay. The WiFi at the dining hall worked really well, although honestly, being surrounded by such peace and beauty made it easy to disconnect and simply enjoy island life.

The food was phenomenal — every meal was outstanding. Most importantly, the staff were exceptional: warm, welcoming, attentive, and genuinely made the experience even more special.

This is truly the perfect island escape to rejuvenate, reset, and unwind. Highly recommended — 10/10.

Beautiful stay
Pros:

The Dorm was very comfortable and still private with the walls between every bed. There is no pool, but the beach there is the best I‘ve been on Fiji with soft sand. Especially the staff there was so nice and welcoming!

Pros:

Les bungalows sont bien équipés et leur environnement est magnifique. Resort très calme. Equipe sur place très agréable, ambiance familiale. Repas chers mais très bons.

Cons:

Prix de la pension complète trop cher. On devrait pouvoir choisir entre pension et demi-pension.
Pas de wifi dans les chambres : non acceptable vu le prix payé.

Paradise
Pros:

This place is stunning. The bay is clear and blue. Great for swimming and snorkeling or just watching over as the day goes by. The staff at Oarsman's Bay Lodge are kind, friendly and so very helpful. Nothing is too much. The activities are great. I have stayed in the dorm and a bure and both are clean and comfortable. The bure is really beautiful, spacious and has everything you need. The food is nice. I just can't fault it. I will definitely be back and next time with my family.
