Hotel is simple but surrounded completely by nature, it’s the kind of place where you wake up to the sound of birds, fresh air, and total peace — no crowds, no noise, just pure serenity. Like your own private island. Amazing staff and home cooking meals.

The people. In the beginning they are “ the staff “, but very soon they become friends, and if stay long enough they become family, because that is how they treat you as soon as you arrive, special and embraced like a family member

The staff, particularly Jonny, went out of their way to welcome me to the resort. Everything was perfect, the food, location, boat trips around the island, room and bure, nightly music, singing, and sleeping to the sounds of the waves. By far, my favorite accommodations throughout my stay in Fiji.

Due to the location of the resort, it is extremely difficult to communicate with anyone, either before arriving or while waiting for a boat to transport you back to the resort after spending a day away. Every adventure we chose to participate in was amazing and the resort employees who accompanied us provided exceptional service. Other than eating chicken every day and sometimes twice a day, the food was exceptional! We relaxed and that was what we were hoping to be able to do! Thank you!

We visited in September and had an amazing time. The staff were incredible and we highly recommend it. What we also really enjoyed is the small number of guests who were most like minded which made for a fun trip. Unfortunately there were winds, so no surf but the swimming, the daily events that the team put on made it fun. Def off the beaten track and highly recommend.

Maqai Eco Resort is a very special place. #1 in friendly, caring and fun staff who treat and love everyone as a family member! Each bure has a sitting deck & is just steps from the beautiful beach with hammocks. We loved eating outside at the Sand Bar & hanging there with couches, chairs, pool table etc. Activities available to do or to do nothing:) You won’t regret time spent here.

Great, fun resort with beautiful people. Beautiful beach. If you want a hut on the beach experience with kava nights where you sing and sit around playing guitar, play pingpong, volleyball, go for hikes, make coconut jewelry, kayak, paddleboard and swim, this is top notch.

This place is amazing. Low key, beautiful place. Not fancy, but paradise. Off the beaten track for sure - you have to take a car to a boat and then boat ride to get there. When you get there you will be taken care of and eat some amazing food. The staff are wonderful and the place is beautiful. You do have to pay for the meal plan because there’s no other way to eat but it’s very delicious.

Cathy and staff were absolutely wonderful! Fabi is great in the kitchen and the volley court. Floyd is as sweet as can be, front of house, in the bar and of course on the volleyball court. They took great care of us and ensured we had a memorable stay. The beach is gorgeous and the snorkeling right from the beach is beautiful. They offer free snorkels, kayak and SUPS. The gear is great. We played volleyball with the staff. The food is well worth it and we walked away from each meal very satisfied. The rooms are basic but that’s all you need when you are steps away from the beach. I would highly recommend if you are looking for a relaxing getaway. There isn’t much to do as you must access by boat but it’s great to just sit back and relax. We didn’t want to leave this amazing experience and friendly staff.. especially the resort dog, Suki!!

Our stay at Maqai on Qamea was the best part of our two week trip in Fiji. The beach is pristine, great surf, and the staff was very nice. We loved Suki and the overall vibe of the resort. The food was delicious, the jungle trek was fun, and the snorkeling rivals the Rainbow Reef. Thank you for such a great stay!

If resorts aren't your thing then this hotel is for you. It is pretty remote and this should guide your expectations. The chef does manage to cook delicious dinners that are shared amongst all the guests. Breakfast could do with some improvement, especially the coffee. It isn't your typical Fiji lagoon. I went on a guided snorkelling trip with the hotel. The gear was good and so was our guide but if you want to take part in the activities you should be confident in the water, including the open ocean.
