We loved this little resort. It was a perfect way to have a few quiet days after a 2 week cruise. The staff were all very kind and helpful, we had pizza one night that wasn't bad and fish dinner the other night. We were almost the only guests...another couple was there also. The chef offered to cook anything we wanted for dinner. The continental breakfast was simple but convenient. The best perk was getting picked up right infront of the cruise ship, literally, see the photo! We enjoyed using the kayaks, but swimming and snorkeling wasn't what we hoped it could be. This was a wonderful, quaint experience but not luxury. The boat shuttle could be off putting to some but we loved it.

Worst holiday every, no arrival greeting, no key for the room, no white wine, no gin, no tequila at bar, only chicken wings available for dinner or pulled meat off wings for other dishes like chicken fried rice so had a job to find the chicken, no sunloungers around pool or beach only one broken chair, beach was covered in litter, seen a rat on windowsill outside restaurant, and evidence of rats under accommodation. Had to ask each day for a toilet roll, no room service or clean towels unless we asked. Manager told us she was told by her boss she couldn't buy anything, only marmalade for breakfast no jam, one morning we asked for eggs and was told they had no eggs.

The location was amazing beautiful sunsets we had the whole place to our selves as shoulder season. Staff very friendly and would ferry us over to the main land whenever . A recent storm has impacted some of the beach facilities and the jetty had collapsed which impacted deliveries. Food was a bit pricey compared to other local sites and selection was poor but to be honest they made it all up with their fijian hospitality. We hope the repairs go well. There are some things that are out of anyone's control.

The staff at Belo Vula were absolutely amazing. Couldn’t do enough for us. The food is also delicious. You do need to ask if you want eggs for breakfast or something that’s not on the menu for lunch.
The property recently suffered through a cyclone and the jetty is damaged. The rooms are a little tired and could do with an upgrade but were comfortable.

The majority of staff deserve 5 stars: professional and kind.
The 3-star review is about lack of A/C, very unstable wifi, and lack of amenities, though listed: no spa, no snorkeling equipment.
I asked 5 times to have someone fix the A/C, it was never fixed; I was never moved to a room with A/C.
I had to go to the restaurant to have wifi, which is not very private, nor convenient.
I did ger an in-room , 90-minutes massage, which was relaxing.
The pool was great. Parts of the private beach were dirty- but that’s everyone’s responsibility to keep clean.

The staff was absolutely outstanding. The private island was wonderful. Complimentary water taxi to/from the island included. Large bungalows with stunning views. It was wonderful sleeping to the island breezes. The facility is dated, but to us added to the Fijian charm. The beach was wonderful and seeing the fishes, crabs, and stingrays added to the charm of the place. The only thing that would have added to our stay would have been lounge chairs.

The property has potential — nice views of the water, staff was nice and accommodating. The food was pretty good overall.

My biggest issues were that my room was rundown, and the beach area was dirty. I would not stay here again.

Regarding the room — the AC and fans worked well, and my room was spacious. However, various doors didn’t slide or close properly, the half wall had old dirty sand inside and remnants of dead plants and some other stuff, someone left a utensil on one of the beds, and the shower had no hot water and didn’t spray straight.

Regarding the property, there was some broken glass right outside my room. I also went on a walk down the beach and saw plastic bottles, chip bags, and a soggy diaper. The property also had animal poop all around. Not sure what type of animal it was but it really was scattered by the main areas — including the path between the restaurant, check-in office and rooms. It would not be too difficult to take the time and clean up the area.

I arranged a airport transfer with this property and gave them the flight details
When we arrived at the airport no one was there. Our flight was delayed about 45 mins due to bad weather at take off but they would have been able to check this. We were stranded at the airport
Thankfully a local couple helped us and took us to the pier that goes to hotel . They also contacted the hotel to send a boat to get us otherwise wouldn’t have anywhere to stay. I had prepaid the accommodation.The boat driver showed us the room. We saw no one else as we had to leave at 6.30 am . Nothing open for food on arrival or departure
They have not replied when I asked why they didn’t pick us up
Very bad service

There is rubbish constantly in the water and washing up on the beach, so we didn't feel confident to swim there. Jetskis were not available during our stay, we were very dissapointed, only kayaks were available. There was a lot of noise from cargo ships unloading at night. Not much to do on island, no tv's in room, no internet in cabins. This place is far from any day tours. Staff were nice and helpful, lovely people. Rooms were average and need maintenance.

I booked the Garden Family Buir. The room was not as nice as depicted in Expedia photos. Nice swans towels on bed, however no bath or hand towels in bathroom. Had to request from reception.
The outside gardens and beach access is very nice. Transport to the island is through a motorised dingy/ boat.
The bed is comfortable and bedsheets are clean. Bathroom is old but functional. Amazingly no issues with mosquitoes, just lots of toads at night. No Internet in rooms only in main dining area.
Air condition was faulty. Remote doesn’t work. Operates only on a 25 degrees.. Have to switch on/off at power point. Bedside lamps have no light bulbs. Tea/coffee facilities available but no bin provided in room.
Overall reasonably priced for the people on a budget.
Location is great, just opposite cruise port.

This is a resort geared for locals. I believe I was The only non Fijian staying.
I enjoyed the tranquil environment.
My curry dinner was tasty and the breakfast biscuits in the otherwise basic offerings were truly the best I’ve ever tasted!
I used a kayak to paddle around the island- it took me about 2 hours and I didnt see a soul. Magical.
If you want something that is far from the typical tourist spot to rest and relax, this is your spot.
If you need to be able to get to tourist attractions, this may be too far out of the way.

This propwrty could be so much more than it is. A beautiful tranquil island and a hteat place to relax and recoup but and it is a BUT. There were no sunloungers, the pool was not maintained well and could not lay around it due to the lack of beds. The room was not cleaned when asked after ot had been left awvwral days. The sheets were not changed frequently enough. For 3 says there was no wine 1 day no eggs and there was a very poor selection of fruit at breakfast. One day they cut an apple up as I asked was there any fruit.

Incredibly nice people make you feel welcome. Dated, but comfortable, rooms and mediocre breakfast could be improved. It is a nice respite from boring Nadi for those on a budget and only 45 minutes from airport via taxi and water taxi. The beach is good but the pool is small. Clean around buildings, but garbage ridden further away.

This was our very first holiday away on a beach resort; very easy to get to from main land to experience that \"island life\".

Heaps of water activities included which was amazing.

The resort has authentic fiji dishes aswell as some home comforts, great selection of cocktails.

The property needs some TLC, some fresh paint and the decking is also rotting in places, the outside blubs need replacing. The jet skis looked worn. Plus the pole cues need replacing desperately. The water pressure in the shower aswell as the temperature was tempormental.

Very clean and tidy, they swept up the beach everyday and kept it pristine.

The staff were so accommodating; tom, emma and luke were absolute stars! We were able to check in early and check out abit later which was perfect for us, management really kept us at ease when we had any special requests.

Overall a cery memorable experience!

The team at this resort were so lovely and humble. A perfect place to stay if you are looking to switch off for a few days. Every morning we were greeted with smiles and a chat.
The island has so much potential, but it's downfall is the amount of rubbish that has accumulated. The staff spent each morning cleaning litter that had washed up on the beach, obviously not their fault but kudos to them for trying.
We were a bit disappointed as we didn't have hot water for the time we stayed, although it didn't ruin our stay.
Snorkeling near the island was fun, plenty of coral for schools of fish to hang out.
Opportunities to go to and from bekana to the mainland all throughout the day and night no questions asked, even if the boat has just returned and the tide is low.

Room 1 was outstanding. staff and food were excellent. Karsika is an outstanding chef. Va, Matthew and all the staff were great. And a nice pool. Unfortunately the amount of rubbish present in this area is distressing. Including the water so snorkelling was disappointing. Most of it seems to come from across the main land drains. If you get a taxi make sure you tell them the boat pick up is about opposite the TANOA HOTEL. not the other marina.

The staff were incredibly nice, the pizza is good, and the transport to and from the island is convenient. That’s all I can say positively about the resort.

The upholstery in our room (sheets, chairs…) was dirty and stained. Most of the water park features are not in use, and are sitting uninflated on the grass. The restaurant is a bit dirty, and full of equipment that speaks to earlier glory days (e.g. a foosball table and DJ equipment in the corner, dance floor lights on the ceiling). The Fijian Bures listed in their ad appeared to us to be being lived in full time. The beach at the resort limits was covered in garbage, and there is a garbage burn right behind the garden bures. Their website lists a spa as one of the amenities, but when I asked three separate staff about it, none had any idea what I was talking about.

We booked two nights but only stayed one. It really has the feeling of a pandemic casualty - a place that was great and affordable, but has gone to seed since. While I feel bad for the owners, and found the staff to be lovely, I would by no means recommend staying there

Extremely disappointing

I was under the impression that I would be able to walk out my door and jump in the ocean, unfortunately that was not the case as the beaches were lined with trash consistently, so we just sat on our porch and watch the garbage float on by. I do not blame this \"resort\" for being in the direct path of a \"trash current\" but with this being our first time in Fiji, I wish this would have been in other reviews. I have a few other complaints like the food, the cocktails (they put olives in the pina colada), the burning of trash on the island, the pool being closed the entire time with no heads up, for example, but the condition of the beach makes me not want to return. We tried looking at other hotels after night one but everything was booked or extremely expensive. I hate posting this review about a small, family owned hotel but if swimming in the ocean or sitting on a lovely, clean beach is what you are looking for, this is not the place for you.

Worth your money

Overall - you pay for what you get but I feel it is value for money. If you pay double or triple you get to stay on Denarau but at the same time, you get no character there. This place has everything that you need without the bells and whistles.
Room - average. Beddings are a bit worn out but clean. We stayed in a beachfront room and it was really spacious. Aircon made a bit of noise but worked well.
Service - great - what you need to realise about most of Fiji is that people are super laid back. They are happy to help but they are not constantly bugging you to buy things, see if you need anything or going out of their way. However, if you ask them for something or to do anything, they will happily comply. They checked most days if they wanted our room serviced and if they didn’t, if I just asked, it was done. I personally don’t like changing sheets and towels everyday because I don’t do this at home and so bad for the environment.
Food - limited menu however, you can go to the main island anytime. They pick and drop you as many times as you need. The main land has many more options but note that Fiji itself has limited choices. visit The Boat Shed and Nan Yang. Generally the food at the resort was yum.
Activities - kayaking, paddle boarding, snorkelling and water slides were free with stay. jet skiing was not worth it as they have really regulated the speed due to a previous incident. Pool was good but not for little kids as deep.
Overall - definitely worth our money

Small resort and ideal if you are wanting a quiet / peaceful getaway with some basic activities at the resort. Not fancy/high end, but clean, well maintained, friendly staff, and general needs covered. Was ideal for our family of 5 (2 adults x3 children ages 16, 13, 10). Our kids had a fantastic time with the water activities and 'one on one' support from the lifeguards. Boat transfer to and from Lautoka easy and fantastic 24/7. We loved our stay.

The property has potential but is not being run well. Book only if you are ok with an adventure.

They lost the only key to our room and we waited almost 2 hours for them to break into the room...
We never got a key. The keys are kept in a plastic bin at the bar and they said this has happened frequently.

Finally we asked for our welcome drink and while waiting a mouse strolled by in the dining room.

Room was fine, pool was cute, beach has potential.

We did not feel like they were prepared for us at all and we did not feel welcome.
