All of the superlatives you read on this site are true! From the genuine beachside greeting as you arrive you become part of the island community.Everyone tries to treat you as a special friend and if you are able to respond you will enjoy a holiday like no other.I'll leave the descriptions and highlights of the resort to others.

I'm freakishly addicted to the movie Cast Away with Tom Hanks. When I first heard about this island, i thought it was the island in the movie. turns out it's not but you can see Wilson's island from the beach at this heavenly resort. Seriously one of my favorite places on earth. the staff is so friendly, and the service... More

Wonderful in every way you expect a resort to be. Let me list the ways in order of amazingness: 1. AMAZING People. This is what makes the entire experience so incredible. They have a way with children that is inexplicable. I was concerned with my shy, suspicious 4 year old and how he would settlle into Kids Club, but he... More

We were greeted on the beach with music and beautiful smiles. The welcoming party included this giant Fijian who was the resort manager. He ordered the porter to take the bags to burea and for us to follow after a welcoming drink at the bar. This was a nice gesture as it was quite hot and humid. We got a... More

We've travelled with the kids all over the world and this was unanimously voted as the best, most relaxing holiday ever (and yes they are teenagers!) First of all, the welcoming singing troupe that greeted us at the beach, followed by a refreshing drink at sunset bar, and a charming conversation with Tevita. There was a delay in our room... More

Having been to Fiji a few years back pre-children I had resolved not to hurry back - not for any real reason, Mololo, the island on which we stayed was stunning, the people beautiful and the atmosphere relaxed and friendly.... but...it wasn't great value for money (compared to Thailand for example), the food wasn't great (we ate a lot of...

We heard from many seasoned Fiji travelers that this was the place to stay and they were right. It's so relaxed and easy. Plus it's spectacularly beautiful. I do agree that if you are going w/o kids and don't prefer kids everywhere, it is probably not your best choice. Probably one of the best features is that kids 3 and... More

My wife and I enjoyed the Castaway especially the guys working at the sport shop (snorkeling, tours, etc), very kind and helpful. However, the adult pool had children sitting at the bar every day. Children at the bar? There was a kids pool but some parents didn't get the point. Children at the bar and in the jacuzzi is not... More
