Came here for peace quiet and to get away from the crowds and that is exactly what I got - my stay was delightful, restful and exactly what I needed, the staff here were amazing - they really do go above and beyond for their guests however being such a small place they don’t have a large number of guests which probably explains why at times activities were cancelled. The nighttime activities were highlight. And while this isn’t for everybody, the lack of Wi-Fi or TVs in the rooms was also a highlight. It was great to disconnect. This is a really remote Island in the Yasawas - you can walk around the island, and there are some other very local places to visit for ice cream, doughnuts or curry mud crab made by locals on the other side of the island. We had use of the Blue Lagoon Beach when the official cruise boat was not there, and there was kayaking and a fair amount of fish to see when snorkelling around the island. The food was surprisingly fantastic, considering that there was limited options, everything they did they did well. They also catered to my dietary requirements to the best of their ability and I really loved the staff by the end of my stay. I did expect to not see any children at this resort (as that is what is advertised). However there is a neighbouring venue called the Boathouse (same owners) that allows children and a common dining area shared between the two. However, this wasn’t that bad as there really isn’t that many people even if they’re at capacity.

We loved our stay, and will cherish our time with their beautiful staff. We stayed in the Bure on the beachfront with 180 views, it was amazing & I would highly recommend.
The snorkelling was beautiful, the trip to the sea caves also well worth it. We did the Manta Ray tour which was a highlight.
This resort is so authentic, remote, quiet and so relaxed.

There is lots to do or nothing at all!

We especially enjoyed walking the Blue Lagoon beach...so many good things to say. We would highly recommend this little resort & will be back.

Just be careful what you’re looking for! We saw the good reviews and the word resort and expected a bit more in terms of facilities- there is no gym, racquet sports, tv or wifi in the rooms. If you want a relaxing and off grid experience, yes this is great and we were able to relax and explore the islands on kayaks. Had to be quick on the snorkels though, often unavailable

The food was great however much more expensive than we anticipated considering there’s no other options - 30fjd for potato wedges and only 50fjd options for mains at dinner. One night the only option was an 85fjd traditional buffet which was fantastic but we weren’t that hungry and there were no other options. The website says no meal plan so you can budget as much or as little on food as you want, but we found there were no midway options like a wrap for fjd20. The general store mainly caters for locals with cooking facilities, so the only option there was a cup of noodles.

Great night activities and staff, great view from the rooftop Bure so definitely a net positive experience, very relaxing and beautiful island and beach, just not the bustling resort vibe we had an anticipated. Five nights was probably too long for our needs. Other young couples seemed to feel the same so just trying to give realistic feedback for those looking to book :)

We stayed in a tree top bure (no AC but plentiful louvres and ceiling fan) late June so temperatures were fine and the bure had a fabulous view which we never tired of. We are late 60s and were happy to climb a few steps to get such a view! Comfortable bed, functional (a little tired but clean) bathroom. Well cleaned daily.

Staff are awesome, very friendly, happy and helpful. Our hobby is snorkeling and there is quite good coral and fish towards the Blue Lagoon part of the beach. We really enjoyed the afternoon snorkel trips where we saw pristine coral and sea life nearby! So if you really want good snorkeling be willing to do the afternoon trips, well worth while. Thanks Moses!

We would like to return next winter, so that tells you how we rate it.

Thanks Nanuya Island Resort.

We loved our 4 night stay here. It’s very casual, laid back and relaxing. Don’t come here if you want a Sheraton or Intercontinental experience, a late night party place or designer decor. There’s a bunch of things that could be updated (like the faucets and sinks) and some areas really could use a new coat of paint. BUT the views from the treetop Bure are amazing, and we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. There’s cultural entertainment every night. And it was lovely to take a kayak out to the point. The Sawa I lau caves are a bumpy 30 minute boat ride away and there’s a trail you can take to the other side of the island that was totally worth it. To see good reefs you’ll need to pay about $18 US to go on a guided snorkel trip. The included continental breakfast was very good, lunch and dinner was ok and the WiFi was terrible. But I would come back here in a heartbeat. It felt like home.

It isn’t one of the super flash resorts you can find, with pristine build quality and sanitised customer service, but it is rustic, remote, warm (climate and people) and thoroughly relaxing. The people are disarming and genuine, and brilliant. It was like being home and in a tropical paradise, somewhere for your soul to find rest. I recommend Nanuya Resort wholeheartedly.

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

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.

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 ;-)

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

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.

Good choice while visiting Yasawa islands.

Unique secluded resort to stay in the Yasawa Island chains. After traveling around Fiji on sailboat for 2 seasons, very familiar with land accommodations for our land based guests. This location offers some hiking options, a decent restaurant with limited choices, pleasant staff and a list of unique day trip options to choose from. Not a luxury resort but has its own charm.

We stayed here for snorkeling only to find their reef is not healthy or good for snorkeling. There is another area you can walk to that is better but only if the cruise ship is not docked there. We organised some day snorkeling trips that were great. If you want to wake up and snorkel choose another island resort.
We had our computer stolen from our locked room. Help was minimal from the Australian owner. Who wrote a message to me in capitals when I requested help from home. They did organise a local police person to come and speak with us.
We witnessed the owner argue with a guest over lunch. All lunch patrons were very subdued that day.
The local staff were amazing and we really enjoyed their friendliness, hospitality and cooking. I wish they could get ownership back and run the place and restore the reef like others are doing.

Wonderful view from bure’s. The menu needs more variation eg lunch is entirely taco’s one day (just different flavours), next day lunch is entirely pizzas (different flavours). Lunch is very expensive 30FD for a toasted sandwich. Ran out of snorkelling gear one day because people did not have to return theirs each day. Housekeeping staff did great job - friendly & responsive to requests. Would stay here again

No aircon was fine in July as the humidity wasn’t high. Great activities available. Highly recommend the guided snorkeling trip to the blue lagoon. The staff were amazing and made a real effort to learn you names, teach you some Fijian and laugh along with you. The staff really made the trip. Don’t hesitate, go to Nanuya!

Romantic Getaway with Incredible Food & Hospitalit

My husband and I absolutely loved our stay at Nanuya Island Resort! From start to finish, everything was amazing. The food was delicious—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented at every meal.

The staff were so friendly and welcoming, always going the extra mile to help us plan our daily adventures and ensure we made the most of our time on the island.

The resort has a relaxed, peaceful atmosphere that was perfect for a romantic getaway, but there were also plenty of activities and excursions to enjoy.

We made such special memories here and would return in a heartbeat!

However, my room in particular had issues with the fan stopping and causing a loud noise occassionally. Others didn't seem to have that issue.

Nanuya Island resort must be one of the most relaxing places on the planet. The treetop burre we stayed in was very comfortable, private, clean and peaceful with a lovely view. The staff couldn't be more welcoming, friendly and helpful and they actually do make you feel like part of the family. The activities offered were excellent, the food fantastic and the massages were divine. While the beach immediately in front of the resort is fairly rocky, it's only a 10 minute walk to a stunning beach where the movie Blue Lagoon was filmed. We actually cried when we left Nanuya and we can't wait to return.

The staff at this resort are what truly makes it great. The location is also beautiful. It’s a remote location and the very last stop if you take the Yasawa Flyer to get there (about 5 hours). The resort has one restaurant and bar, free breakfast (or you can pay for a cooked breakfast), lunch and dinner options change daily and are pretty good. We booked the luxury villa and it’s an absolutely stunning location with the most gorgeous views of anywhere we’ve ever stayed. It’s secluded with beautiful grounds, a private patio overlooking the ocean, private lounge chairs near the water, the beach is rocky but beautiful. You can walk to a sandy beach with clear beautiful water. I was a little surprised to discover that the shower and toilet were outdoors, but it wasn’t a bad thing. Obviously still private, just outside. Take mosquito spray. They have some at the resort but it wasn’t very strong. There is only one tiny store on the island so it’s best to purchase anything you need before you go. The staff entertains and plans activities each day. We didn’t do much, but the really enjoyed a week of R&R. Only complaint is that the WiFi is awful. Everyone in remote areas should have STARLINK these days!!

The staff are exceptional - so helpful and friendly Food was very good- being a smaller resort we felt it had more of a personal touch each day with fruits and pastries in the morning with option to buy other items.
Loads of activities if you want (mostly for fee) or you can just laze on a lounge chair all day. Nice area to snorkel. Room was comfortable but lights were bit dim. We had two sofas and a bed. Shower was huge, little area with kettle and small fridge. Safe was not bolted to anything so that was odd. Nice deck in the back but mainly used communal loungers.
Each day the staff present a schedule which has a day activity and evening activity you can join. There is also often some type of demonstration such as basket weaving. Resort is 5hrs by ferry from Nadi but I would definitely return and recommend

Nanuya Island resort was so peaceful. There was a very musical staff that sang to you throughout the day. I loved how the food menu changed everyday and it had the most deliciously unique combinations. The resort was small which made the stay feel very intimate. I also loved your ability to walk everywhere. The staff was very attentive and they made you feel at home. I was sad to leave, but I'll be back.

We stayed at the treetop Bure, the view was phenomenal. The Bure was basic but charming and clean. The area around the resort is really well maintained tropical gardens. The resort has a convenience store and a restaurant. Food was healthy and tasty using local ingredients. Daily breakfast included freshly baked sweet and savoury goods. The staff was very welcoming. We felt a sense of community got to learn about the Fiji culture from them. They were also very accommodating in regards to daily activities offered. Overall we loved our stay at Nanua and highly recommend.

Beautiful resort, amazing views!

The snorkeling at the resort is not good at all (don't believe the staff when they tell you to snorkel out front to the wharf or down at the point at the south end of Blue Lagoon Beach), so you have to spend money to go better places but it's only $30 fjd for a guided snorkel outing, you don't have to go far, just across the channel. Other resorts have good snorkeling off their beaches (see Naqalia resort). I heard that Barefoot Manta is the best, Blue Lagoon beach resort has good snorkeling too but when we were there they couldn't snorkel due to high winds. Staff are fantastic, someone sings and plays guitar every night during dinner (plus a welcome song and goodbye song and morning song every morning!). Food is great and had large portions. The views from the treetop bures are fantastic! They don't have air-conditioning but have a strong fan and that was good enough while we were there.
In summary, I would stay here again because it's so lovely and staff are so good, but I would organize a snorkeling trip every day.

The most perfect stay. The staff really do make the resort what it is and made us feel so welcome from the first minute until the last.

Perfect location for snorkelling and kayaking.

The view from the treetop bure was breathtaking although certain aspects of the room were a little tired and needed updating but this didn’t affect the trip at all.

Would happily return to Nanuya.

We loved everything. We stayed in a Deluxe Bure for 10 nights and didn't want to leave.
The staff are lovely, caring and efficient. The food is superb, easily the match for any top class restaurant anywhere, and very reasonable prices for generous quantities. We only ever needed one main dish to share at dinner, and usually didn't eat lunch.
Sunbeds and cabanas are plentiful and white sandy beaches are a couple of minutes walk, or straight from your sunbed, down a couple of steps and straight into the sea at any tide, for good snorkeling with plenty of sea-life amongst the coral.
Bures are comfortable, very clean and everything you need.
We have nothing negative to say whatsoever. The farewell from the staff left both of us very close to tears, and both with a determination to return.

Our lasting memory of Nanuya Island Resort will be the welcoming and friendly staff. Their warmth and hospitality was appreciated - including the songs and entertainment! We stayed in one of the tree-top bures, which was a bit of a hike (especially after dinner). It was clean but quite small. If you're looking for more space and air conditioning, check out the deluxe units.

Our 2nd time to Nanuya and probably enjoyed even more than the first time. Our Tree top bure was simply next level in all aspects, especially the view, quietness and very private. The staff are superb and so much fun, they truly make an effort to get to know you without about being intrusive. A beautiful family feeling with staff children being involved in performances and activities. We highly recommend a visit to the school and/or church service and the snorkling at blue lagoon goes without saying. We'll be back again to this magical place!

The staff are so amazing and friendly and treat you like royalty, and the scenery is beautiful, the food is excellent. I will never go anywhere else in Fiji and I can't wait to return. Stayed in the Tree top bure and it was so private with a little balcony over looking the water, watched amazing sunsets every night. I felt like I'd been waiting my whole life to go there. The hardest part was going home.

Great spot in paradise.

Great hotel in a great location. Staff were excellent. Food was of good quality, I would have liked for there to be more local Fijian food options through the week, kokoda for a starter, curry option for a main, Ika Vakalolo for examples. Activities available and the activity staff were great.
All in all a very enjoyable stay and would recommend to others.

I misread the listing that there was no AC but the fan and breeze was adequate for the evening. We recommend a stay at this lovely boutique resort.

Nunuya Island Resort was a great find for us on our trip to the Yasawa's. The staff were terrific and made us feel like we were a part of their family. Food was great and it was nice to have options to choose from each day rather than a set menu. Highly recommend taking the Sawa i lau cave trip if you are up for an adventure. The only minor issue was the fact that the AC in our villa struggled to keep up with the heat during the afternoons. Overall a truly amazing stay. Thank you.

If you’re looking for a small quiet resort this would be a great option. Not much going on or very many people. The activities were very nice and the staff was great. I was disappointed in the lack of a/c in our room and the lizards that joined us in bed. We also wish there was more flexibility or eating options. Breakfast is not served till 8, lunch at noon and supper at 5, with us being from a much different time zone it was a little inconvenient especially the breakfast.

The property is situated in a beautiful location, near, but not on a lovely beach. The property has a sea wall fronting it with steps into the ocean. The property is lovely and most of the staff are very pleasant, with a few notable exceptions. The bures are spacious, nice bathrooms, decent beds. Quite a few mosquitos, be sure to bring spray. The biggest negative is that there is nowhere to go really from the property. It feels very isolated. The other thing is that they have strange unwritten rules, for example, if you bring your own alcohol to the property they charge you a corkage fee to drink it on the property. . . .
Overall it is a nice place, probably better for people who just want to lounge around and be taken on an organized excursion than for people who wish to explore the area.

The manager and his wife were incredibly rude and dismissive to the lovely Fijian staff. Either been doing it too long or simply never learnt management or leadership skills ( it’s really hard, just treat people as you would like to be treated) there is no doubt the kind and friendly Fijian staff would respond in kind.
Not just our observation and opinion.

This is a fabulous resort. The staff are amazing. The food excellent. The beach clean, the sand soft, the water clear and warm. You need only swim thirty meters off shore in the blue lagoon to float and snorkel over living coral reefs. The resort has snorkel gear for use and single and double kayaks to use. There are no TV sets. There is wifi available but take a few good books to read instead. This is as close to being off the grid as you can get while still being spoiled. The resort is very self sustained with solar power, gardens and water that is treated so you can drink it. The breakfasts included are complete with ample fresh fruit, fresh fruit juices, home baked breads, scones, and treats from the kitchen and preserves. The lunch menu and dinner menu change, lots of fish but also options for those who don’t like sea food or fish. Each night at dinner the staff play guitar and sing beautiful Fijian songs as well as some modern tunes. During happy hour before dinner specialty drinks are half price and you will often see some of the younger people walk the forty minutes thru the jungle from the other side of the island (a small hostel type place called Sunrise is there) to get some drinks and enjoy the comforts of the resort. The walk to the sunrise over the top of the island and then back through the jungle to the beach is under two hours and feels like an adventure - recommended. Take the boat and go there. Leave the kids at home. You deserve this.
