Yasawa Island Resort

From our arrival on our anniversary until our departure a few days later, Yasawa delivered on everything..... Beauty, food, lodging, snorkeling, island excurisions, and freindly staff. Great Bure (8). Chef prepared an anniversary seafood platter that we will remember forever.

I would strongly recommend staying here. My wife and stayed for 7 nights and loved every part of it. Location is perfect, it is beautiful wherever you go. Food was really really good. Staff is really amazing and everyone treats you so well. I would recommend that if you are coming from the US I would stay for a week as it is kinda a long trip. But well worth it.

Peace & serenity from your busy life style Great for couples or solo. Swim in aqua blue sea, or lay down for sun tan. Fishing trips are great. Snorkeling or reef diving is a must. Aahh, don't forget to get spoilt with Spa treatment. Village trips are a must. Seeing a simple Fijian lifestyle, one to one with villagers, is a must. Cave trips. Food & Wine is well taken care of. onsight ice-cream by chef...loving it Don't bring work, just ourselves

We booked these rooms on the ******* website. We arrived at the resort in the late afternoon of April 26, 2025 on the last flight into Yasawa. We checked into our rooms and noticed many inconsistencies with the luxury that was communicated on the Yasawa Island Resort and ******* websites. The room was hot. There was a tiny wall AC unit above the bed which was not adequate to cool the whole room. We found bugs and spiders of many types throughout the room. We also found lizards and geckos on the ceilings and corners. The room was not even close to luxury and was not clean. We immediately complained with hotel staff with no real attention given to our complaint. As it was late and we could not leave the island until the next morning, we suffered through the night at the resort. The next morning we once again voiced our concerns with no resolution. We checked out at the front desk and took the next available flight from Yasawa to Fiji. This resort is not the luxury presented on Yasawa Island Resort or Expedia's website. Do your self a favor and stay on the main island at a reputable resort.

My husband and I had the pleasure of staying at Yasawa during our honeymoon. Absolutely beautiful. Incredible staff. We stayed for 7 nights but would have stayed another week. Every night at happy hour they give you the planned activities for the next day, but you are not obligated to participate (although, we would recommend them). From snorkeling to exploring the caves to visiting the village, they truly make every moment paradise. The staff is beyond comparable. Smiga will put a smile on anyone's face and Sammi's Mojito's are out of this world good. The food is some of the best food we've had in the world. We highly recommend the private beach picnic. It's an absolute MUST. 10/10!

I rate this a five star couple retreat experience from beginning to end. The 8 seater Island Hoppers flight in from Nadi is an experience in itself with incredible views of the beautiful Yasawas and surrounding reefs whetting the appetite for arrival. The airstrip transfer and check in process was smooth and professional by resort AM Jope, Sikeli and their team. The welcome we and fellow arrivals received from Kaydee the resort GM was heartfelt, informative and refreshing, complete with a lovely welcome song from staff. The arrival in our room was spectacular, we had the double bure on the hill at the southern end of the resort, a luxurious 2br 2 bth villa with a large balcony, and were greeted with sweeping views of the coastline and cliffs, jungle, beach, ocean and reefs. My wife was impressed with the champagne I had pre-organised for our arrival. Complete with the stocked mini bar and Fijian sunshine this made for a relaxing afternoon at the bure, reading and sunbathing on the day bed and cooling off in the private outdoor shower (there were 2 of these at our bure). 6:30 was nightly cocktail hour, and as we arrived on a Sunday, there was a magnificent staff gospel singing choir on the beach. It was obvious from the speech by resort owner Erin, that the local culture is respected with Sunday being a quiet day at the resort with minimal staffing so local villager staff who make up the majority of staff can participate in village religious and cultural festivities. Sai and Sami had the cocktails down pat, by the end of the stay we had tried all the local specials!! Meals were always a highlight, with plenty of variety on offer and often featuring local cuisine. The local fresh caught seafood platter was spectacular. The service from all waitstaff including Kara, Jerry and led by Manasa and Wati was outstanding, friendly and attentive. Despite all this, the highlights for me were the day activities, private picnics at amazing private white sandy beach and snorkelling spots, and a private diving trip to a couple of the most outstanding coral reef dive spots I have seen, healthy and vibrant with beautiful coral and fish specimens. These were ably organised by activities and dive master Pedro, and we felt safe and looked after by all activities staff including captains Bale, Vuni, Apo and Smiga. Our 4 night stay was great but would have loved to have stayed longer, there was heaps more to do we didn’t get to. Thanks again for a great time, we will be back again!
