Very nice setting, beautiful beach and garden. The food was delicious and they really care about making gluten free food so we highly recommend this litte paradise.free

Very authentic real Fijian people who are genuinely interested in you having the best time possible doing what you want to do. They want you to feel like it’s a home away from home and I wholeheartedly recommend it for people who don’t need or want a resort experience but want a real Fijian one

We had a fantastic time at Naqalia Lodge. This is a unique piece of paradise. We loved lying on hammocks in the gentle breeze, dipping in the crystal-clear water and snorkelling on the spectacular reef just steps away from the bures. We brought our own mask and snorkel, but you can hire ones there if you need. The bures are not luxurious, but they are clean and lovely. We loved kayaking around the island, going on the summit walk to the highest peak and eating freshly caught fish. The showers have only cold water, but we never once needed hot water as the temperature was so warm. We visited this beautiful island in early November 2025. Thank you to all the wonderful staff for showing us your island, for the delicious food and for making us feel like part of the family. Vinaka.

Staff nice.

Tres propre. Repas delicieux, produits frais locaux. Hospitalite chaleureuse et interessante. Participation à la vie de famille. Fonds sous mains et Coraux superbes.

Staff were wonderful, the food outstanding, the experience fantastic views amazing rooms spacious and beautifully presented just like the whole resort This place is a must for anyone with a broad sense of adventure plus you can relax on a hammock with one of the best views in the world

Ich habe mit einen Kumpel eine Nacht in der Naqualia Lodge verbracht. Wir wurden herzlich empfangen, man hat sich gleich wie zu hause gefühlt. Das Essen war super lecker. Wir wären gerne noch länger als eine Nacht geblieben hatten aber allerdings schon alle Unterkünfte im Vorraus gebucht

Friendly staff. Quiet beach. Pretty much everything was worn out and lack of cleaning in the dorm room and bathroom facilities.

We loved our stay in Naqalia. The staff was super friendly. The meals were excellent, and we were offered "more food. More food." The beach was ideal for snorkeling. We were lucky enough to visit two villages. This was my second stay here... it won't be my last.

Le positif : la nourriture est bonne et le lit confortable. La plage est belle mais malheureusement vite encombrée de déchets avec les marées. En revanche, l’organisation est vraiment catastrophique. Le discours répété chaque jour pour les arrivées et départs est exactement le même, sans aucune adaptation, ce qui donne une impression de manque d’attention. Les prix semblent fixés « à la tête du client », aussi bien pour certaines prestations que pour la nourriture, ce qui est assez déroutant. De plus, les commissions prises pour organiser des activités avec des prestataires sont exagérées, alors qu’il n’y a derrière aucune véritable organisation. Je comprends le Fiji time, mais ici, cela frôle l’abus.

Very friendly staff, very clean and organised. Staff would go above and beyond for you

It's an interesting cross between a homestay and a resort. The beautiful welcoming staff made it a memorable stay in spite of the rough by western standards facilities. I'd go back!

This is a place with true feeling. You get a real sense of being part of a Fijian family. Loved the beautiful singing to accompany a good variety of meals. Although old, the bures are spacious with lots of natural light and are progressively being renovated. We enjoyed relaxing, snorkeling and walking around the area. We would go back.

We absolutely loved our stay at Naqalia Lodge. The entire staff instantly made you feel welcome and cared for. Meals are lovingly prepared and the food is plentiful. The island is beautiful with great snorkeling out front and hiking nearby. We would absolutely come again.

I asked ChatGPT to suggest a non resort, run by a village in the Yasawa Islands. Top choice. I had such a special experience. Beautiful people.

The best 5 days of my life. Originally booked for 3 nights but had to extend my stay because I didn’t want to leave. They truly welcome you into their family and make your experience an unforgettable one. Made some real deep connections with the staff and other guests that I’ll never forget. Truly a magical place.

Beautiful place, beautiful people, and the best food! Felt like part of the family from the moment we arrived. You can’t go wrong booking here.

This eco-resort is perfect for a relaxing break on a secluded beach. We stayed in a spacious beachfront bungalow for 4 nights. The staff are so friendly and accommodating! You can choose to do a multitude of activities and the staff are happy to take you. All of the meals are freshly cooked and are so delicious! We experienced a kava ceremony and a traditional dinner cooked in a lovo oven. I recommend this resort for adventurous adults who want to experience true Fijian culture and life. Come as guests, leave as family!

This is our third visit to Nacalia Lodge. it is special because of the friendly accommodating staff and real Fijian culture, Its safe and child friendly, really plentiful and good food, the best we had in the Yasawas, lots of activities, plenty of laughing and singing and great coral snorkelling off the beach The manager Akoo, will help with anything, he took us to the beautiful spit beach between the islands where the coral garden is magnificent, and provided a great picnic. You can arrange to swim with the sharks or you can simple relax and enjoy the beach. We will come again.

Stunning location. Beautiful house reef for snorkelling. Not a 5 star resort but very friendly family environment. Food was good and plentiful and accommodated vegan and vegetarian needs. Wish we had stayed longer.
