Namale Fiji Islands Resort & Spa

Namale wins the resort analysis. Larger, more appointed villa (Civa Bure Oceanside where we stayed) and way more private; better food selections (4-course varies daily); personalized and more elegant 5-star restaurant dining (not as “beachy” - that could be considered differently); your own private pool (all bures/villas have them); in-room TV with Netflix/ApplePrime in our villa (but not all have it but we are comparing Vanu Point to Civa); simikar activities (snorkeling, scuba diving, fishing, with a lovely and long salt water drift that is not available at Turtle Island); BUT no private beaches (Turtle Island definitely does win there with their 15 very private beaches within easy reach). Namale Resort and Spa is likely the BEST Spa in the Fiji Islands (of-course we’ve only experienced two) with a small waterfall, 5 hydro therapy baths, more treatment varieties (including 4-hands and others) and blissful add-ons, wide open doors to the Pacific Ocean views and sounds of the larger ocean waves, and a very expansive facility. Wonderful staff entertainment at Namale and Turtle Island. Kava is a small group unlike the 50-60 staff participating and immersing you in their evening shows.

Just back from a week at Namale. Loved it! Beautiful grounds, great food, lots of fun activities. Spa is beautiful and I got pampered. Our room was gorgeous and cleaned twice a day. Mini bar always stocked. Spent a lot of time on the veranda looking at the ocean. Got a taste of the local culture . Fiji is absolutely beautiful. Hot, but that was expected. Can’t say enough about how friendly and helpful the staff were. Lovely people all. We booked through Costco travel, which I think was a good deal. All inclusive except a couple of excursions (off site waterfall and sandbar picnic) which were well worth the extra expense. A long way to go, but well worth it.

Even though this is really a couples paradise we were accommodated and the staff was phenomenal. Never have met such truly nice people. They go well beyond to give everything you need, every where you go on the property. 7 days was not long enough to do everything they offer. Scuba, salt water river drift, spa, meals-every thing was excellent. This property is set up for you to do as much or as little as you like! Will see you again, but for a longer stay! Thanks, Ken

Namale is simply amazing. The staff make it such a warm, welcoming environment, not to mention the incredible, tranquil setting. We loved the food, every meal was an absolute treat. There are so many beautiful little nooks within the resort where you can enjoy the views, and with how few guests there are, it feels like you have the resort to yourself. Between meals, exploring the beach/reef, snorkeling, massages/spa time and many other activities each day, we barely found time to relax by the pool! We will absolutely be back to Namale, hopefully sooner rather than later, Vinaka!

We have recently returned from 5 days in beautiful Namale Resort. Our only regret is that we didn’t stay longer. Every single activity, meal, and staff member was superb. Everyone there immediately made us feel welcome and ensured that our stay would be perfect starting with remembering our names and using them! Just lovely, delightful people. We couldn’t have felt more spoiled. The rooms were so nice and absolutely spotless and cleaned thoroughly daily and towels changed even at night when they did turn down service. Whatever we wanted or needed was provided immediately and with a smile. The nightly entertainment was also a highlight, especially the darling children and adults from the local village. Just delightful. Our sandbar picnic and snorkel was lots of fun, in spite of the windy day. As was our sunset cocktail and snacks and our special good bye breakfast at lover’s point. I can’t say enough positive things about our experience. Special shout out to Jio, Donna, Bui, Kesa, Oni, Lia, Mili and Mili, Brenda, Joe, and Nanise. Apologies if I’ve forgotten anyone. Wish we could come back tomorrow! Sally and Jim
