"Such a friendly, laid back vibe in a beautiful setting! It had an incredibly warm social environment that was the product of a strong vision and a great team on staff to foster that kind of spirit. Impeccably well-organized operation at check-in, check-out and meal-times. Beautiful beaches, reefs and hill top views. Wonderful dive center with kind staff giving great marine biology talks and tours in addition to snorkel and scuba trips. Great meals. Such an easy place to make to new friends, but also easy to find quiet solo time at. Just the best--would absolutely stay here again."

"Perfect sized family resort with luxury touches. We are already dreaming of returning. We’ve stayed in tons of properties around the world and this one is a gem. The staff were so nice to our children and we even got some adult time while the kids were in the awesome kids club. Everyone had a wonderful time and the food was also very good, especially the lunch curry specials. "

"The spa experience there was amazing! I did while body massage and manicure done and they were both satisfying. The staff was also friendly and nice"

"Absolutely amazing homestay! The hospitality was fabulous, with generous and delicious portions and the family was so welcoming. The views and ocean were absolutely stunning and the hike was incredible with some truly beautiful scenery. The kids were lovely to spend time with, so well-mannered and a joy to get to know. The accommodation is simple and basic, but very comfortable and excellent value for money. Overall, such a special and memorable experience. Highly recommend!"

"Amazing amenities and rooms in a lovely location, great spa/massages. One of the best restaurants on the Yasawa islands. The only thing I would criticize is the lack of a clean water tank to refill reusable bottles. I don't want to buy plastic bottles on a small island and add to the pollution of the world."

"Absolutely wonderful. Top notch service and staff. You could feel the peide of the Fijian people here. An absolute gem. The staff knows you names upon arrival, you're greeted by a beautiful song and lunch. We stayed over Christmas and it was so lovely to have the village come in and sing and dance for us and even father Christmas came for the children of the village. We delt like true family while we stayed for our 8 days. We will be back next year!"

"Oarsman’s Bay Lodge is a magical place. From the moment we arrived, everything was perfect and better than we could have ever hoped for. The staff are so warm and friendly and there was an amazing range of paid and free activities each day. We were there over Christmas day and the lunch they put on was incredible - they even managed to get turkey! The beach is paradise on earth with the clearest water and most amazing snorkelling. We had such an amazing time here, it really is a very special place with the most hospitable staff and the sweetest resort dogs."

"antastic place to spend your time. Mantaray Island about 3.5 hours from the main island in Fiji in the Yasawa Island group, is a beautiful little hamlet of paradise. I spent 5 nights in a Reef Bure (With AC) an was extremely impressed with the cleanliness and general upkeep. The outdoor bathroom is an absolute highlight with its 3 different light/mood settings at night. The Bure itself was also only 12 step from the beach with its beautiful torquay blue water. Great snorkeling is on offer straight off the beach (High tide only) and a lovely hotel pool for low tide. The Restaurant served amazing meals on a set menu that changed every 2 day’s (B,L,D) and during the day you can swap your lunch meal for a pizza by the pool if you like, the resort also offers diving (Which I didn’t do this time) and a Spa that offers a limited but good range of massages. The Hotel is a cashless hotel, so you don’t need to have a wallet full of cash like I had. Overall this is a very good 4 star operation in the Yasawa group, and I am definitely looking to come back in July-September next year when the Mantaray swim past the Island. "

"Yasawa Island Resort was stunning. Our villa was amazing and right on the beach. The staff are so friendly and helpful. Great conversations We were able to witness a sea turtle laying her eggs on the beach and then in the morning see her trail back into the ocean. The air travel arranged by the resort to the property was incredible "
