Nanuya Island Resort

The staff was amazing for everything, would recommend to anyone and love to come back

The staff is incredibly friendly, helpful..excellent!!! Everything was wonderful.

When we arrived our aircon wasn’t working, at 31 degrees it was a necessity. They did not have another beachfront of the same category available, so they wanted an extra £50 a night( we were there for 7 nights) to put us in the next category. We refused and after a long discussion they relented and put us there for 4 of the nights. I have to admit both properties were shabby and needed an upgrade. The superior property had a hot tub in the outside shower room. It was dirty with about 2in of dirty water with 2 crabs in. Not a good welcoming start! It was impossible for me to get into the water along the whole length of the resort. They have built a protective wall with lots of slippery rocks to clamber over to get into the water, which is full of grasses . A lot further from the resort is a beautiful beach, sadly, it was too far for me to walk. You cannot use it on a Tuesday and Wednesday as it belongs to Blue Lagoon Cruises and they have it for their exclusive use when the ship docks there. The breakfast that was included was the worst I have had on 9 weeks touring. On the positive side lunch and dinner were the best I had in Fiji, there for nearly 4 weeks. The snorkelling from the boat was amazing, they were extremely considerate and caring. The staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly with Oscar, the bartender, the star of the show. Needless to say , we left the island early, without a refund!

It’s beautiful being way out in the islands. Best part of NIR was the staff; they’re very much like a family and are always saying “bula” and asking how you are. The food has great flavor. The free stuff; kayaks and snorkels are great; just take yourself over to Blue Lagoon. Guided snorkel was amazing as well with Moses. I opted to rough it with no air con; would probably not do that again but it’s all and all a lovely place

Very friendly staff

The people, I hated leaving. Beautiful resort, we stayed in the treetop cabin with a spectacular view overlooking the bay. Very quiet and the people made us feel at home. 5 star for sure.

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

The staff at Nanuya Island Resort is the resort’s #1 asset. They are so warm and genuine and know you by name. They take so much joy in making sure that you are happy. There are so many staff that contributed to a wonderful visit but notable are Moses, Friendly Pete, Nir, Amare, Masi, Oscar, Suli, Sarah, Mere, Marie and more! I wish that everyone wore a name tag so that I could recognize them properly. NIR is beautiful but it is the staff that make the stay worthwhile. We stayed for 4 nights and enjoyed the snorkelling, fish feeding and farm tour that the resort offers. The island is easy to walk around if you want to hike. The food was different for every meal and it was very delicious. Masi told us that it was made with love and it shows. Every morning we were serenaded with the Bula song and there was always music in the evening. There was live music each night and a special choir on our final evening. It was all so special. This resort is all about incredible staff in the middle of paradise.

An absolutely beautiful resort, well set up, nice restaurant, amazingly friendly and helpful staff, lots of activities, a little house reef that can be reached by swimming from the front of the hotel. A thing that I really appreciate and think is amazing and important is that there is a cool water tank where you can refill your bottle, so it's great to bring your own reusable bottle, rather than buying plastic bottles, keeping the island and ocean clean.

The staff was super friendly and helpful. Was really surprised with how great the food was especially the steak. There were plenty of activities to do and were well priced with the non-motorised activity being free. The beach around was very nice and good spots for snorkeling and shell finding. The room was nice with good amenities.

The staff were amazing, so helpful and nice. The food was so delicious. Loved our stay will definitely be back.

Fantastic staff. Great Fiji experience

Great experience as expected. First time back on Nanuya Lailai for 23 years.

The staff was incredibly nice felt like family.

Staff and activities were excellent. Really enjoyed the snoekelling and cabe trips

NIR has an old-school Fiji vibe in the best way … warm, friendly, professional staff, lots of singing, dancing, and instrument playing, upscale and nice but not pretentious. They put the B in Bula. Location is beautiful, good snorkeling down the beach and great snorkeling excursions. We thought the food could have been better and the WiFi is a frustrating experience but other than that, 5 stars. Hot tip … a cruise ship comes in down the beach a ways on Monday for a 2 night (?) stay over, so the beach at the far end becomes inaccessible. We loved that part of the beach so something to know about. Still great without that section but better with it ;-)

The staff truly made it a relaxing stay. They were never without a smile and made everyone feel at home. The views and amazing location were unforgettable.

First things first the "negative". The Buras are located on a hill so you have to climb up the hill to get to them and they also don't have AC. I know that's a point of contention for some. That being said I didn't mind the walk especially because the Bura had an incredible view of the island and the water and was the absolute perfect spot to watch sunsets. It also had a lot of windows so we had a nice breeze all the time and I didn't miss the AC at all. Room was clean and well made with lots of flowers when we arrived. The restaurant didn't have a huge menu as it was a smaller resort but that being said the menu was different everyday and we never had a meal that we didn't thoroughly enjoy. Every meal was fantastic. The staff was probably the best part, it was visible that the staff were trying to make a personal connection with us at every opportunity trying to get to know us and to get to know us by name

Everything about this place was great. Food, service and the staff really do make you feel like family.

A super special place tucked away on a beautiful island! It is worth the trek out here from mainland, it felt like a true secluded island. The villas were wonderful and spacious, the cabanas were plenty, the staff was incredibly nice, and the food was delicious. Even though there are not really any beaches directly on the resort, you can walk to blue lagoon beach and hang out there and snorkel. The only time you cannot go to that beach is on tuesdays bc of a cruise that docks there, I wish I would have known that. Otherwise it was a wonderful quiet secluded getaway where the staff memorized our names and were the absolute best. There is also a hike you can do to the other side of the island which is only about 1-2 miles. The top of the hill on the hike is a beautiful spot for both sunset and sunrise. The sea cave excursion was also wonderful, I highly recommend it even just for the scenic boat ride! A truly unique and beautiful place all around.
