My partner and I stayed at the Resort for 1 week and were so impressed. The views are beautiful, the gardens are lush, the food is tasty, and the atmosphere is so peaceful. What makes this 5 stars are the staff. From the moment we booked, Storm took amazing care of us, anticipating our needs in advance. She is absolutely amazing, and could teach courses in Hospitality. Raymond and the team provided incredible service at the restaurant, personalising our experience and ensuring we were as relaxed as possible. We look forward to returning!! Vinaka xo

We had the most incredible stay at Taveuni Island Resort. You have never met more friendly people at the resort and on the island in general. We were upgraded to a gorgeous ocean view villa. Beautiful and comfortable. The food was excellent and the island had so many activities to offer-scuba, snorkeling, sea kayaking, hiking to waterfalls. The front desk arranged everything and on our excursions made us top notch picnics with silverware and napkins. Raymond, June, Millie and Rick made our time at the resort unforgettable. We could not have asked for better accommodations, activities or relaxation. This gorgeous place had it all. Thank you!! We can’t wait to return.

My husband and I celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary at Taveuni resort. The food they prepared for all the meals was really good. And they made our anniversary dinner and evening special for us, even serenading us with a traditional fun song. We really liked the staff. They were friendly, warm, very helpful, and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. They really made the experience very special. A raincoat would have been very handy at times, and the staff loaned us with an umbrella for use when needed. The cottage we stayed in was very nice and the view spectacular. In fact, the view most anywhere we went was beautiful, spectacular. The staff arranged drivers for us when we went places, and the drivers were informative and nice. We were driven to a parking area near Bouma Falls, and we took about a 15-minute walk to the first waterfall, which is lovely, and we waded and swam in it. We also went to a Catholic Church which was built about 170 years ago. The stained-glass windows were beautiful, and the statues were impressive. The shore is close, and we enjoyed seeing fish and sea creatures in the tide pools. There were also interesting sea creatures under the rocks we turned over.

I’ve never written a review for anything in my life, but I want everyone to know how exceptional and touching Taveuni Island Resort & Spa is. If you’re looking for intimate, private luxury, please consider this island and resort. Ric and Dorthy, the owners, are beautiful loving people for whom I’ll hold in my heart for the rest of my life. Please let me explain. My family arrived in Taveuni in March 2024. Ric and Dorthy immediately made us feel like family by sharing stories between mowing the lawn or working the front office. My son (10) got open water certified and Ric was so happy that he gave my son a patch from his diving company. We felt welcomed like no other resort we’ve been to. Being American, my son ordered a hamburger and fries for every meal (rolls eyes). The resort accommodated every request with grace, while us parents apologized for the ketchup consumption :). On our eighth day we got a call from home that a death in the family was imminent. As usual, the resort supported us with grace beyond expectations. Challenges like this is when the true nature of an organization comes out. I will forever be grateful. Thank you so much Taveuni Island Resort. Our trip was cut short but we will be back. You are deserve all of the accolades you get!

Shhh, don’t tell anybody. Or OK, tell everybody. This a piece of paradise!. Ric and Dorothy built this property from the ground / jungle up. Sitting on a bluff above 2 small beaches with a reef that invites an easy snorkel, kayak or SUP. The resort features 10 Bures and 1 large Villa with its own plunge pool. All have ocean views and the majority have ocean front views. The main building houses a large living room to gather in and enjoy evening entertainment. Often local musicians are featured as well as the traditional Kava ceremony. The adjacent Bar crafts cocktails to order and offers a drink of the day. There is a large Day room that has games, a small library, and plenty of seating. The open air restaurant is the perfect place to enjoy the all inclusive breakfast, lunch and dinner with views that are gorgeous. The owners, Ric and Dorothy, are often there mixing and mingling with the guests. As the “first couple” of diving in Fiji they are a wealth of information for divers. They have a stunning resume of awards and lots of adventures to share. Let’s talk about the food. Many all inclusive resorts have food that’s just ok. The TIR was a delightful surprise. The husband and wife chefs created menus that were inventive and showcased the local meats, fish and produce. The fish was so fresh and the various preparations were delicious. Dessert never disappointed. 3 courses of yum. And the plating and presentation was beautiful. The real highlight of the resort is its staff. Greeted by Storm in the front office on arrival. She gave us a tour of the facilities including an infinity edge pool and showed us to our Villa. The dining room staff were superb. So friendly. They gave activity advice, cultural information, excellent service, all with smiles. Ima, Mila, William to name a few of the staff made breakfast lunch and dinner a joy. From the gardeners to the housekeeping staff, everyone offered a hearty “Bula” often calling us by name too. When was the last time that happened at a big hotel. Thats the beauty of a small resort. But back to Storm. .. Welcoming committee, tour guide, concierge, cultural attache’, she juggles all the guests inquires with a smile. She is a treasure. There are no tv’s (except in the bar), the internet can be finicky, but it really makes you relax and be in the moment. Feeling the gentle breeze, listening to the ocean, watching the birds, and talking to people from around the world. Again, the bonus of a small retreat. I highly recommend the Taveuni Island Resort.

We had such a wonderful and memorable vacation - Fiji was absolute paradise. It was breathtakingly beautiful and romantic. Taveuni Island Resort was perfect in every way. The owners and staff were so amazing, friendly and helpful. It was very private and intimate. The food was fabulous. I can't even begin to express how beautiful the room was and how much we loved it. My favorite part was the outdoor shower overlooking the ocean. We were so very happy that we had the opportunity to stay at this resort. I would highly recommend this beautiful place to everyone.
