"From the moment we booked, communication with Tony was stellar. In the weeks before our arrival, he helped us plan our time in Taveuni with wonderful recommendations on what to do and where to eat. Upon arrival the caretaker, Vinna, showed up smiling and assisting us with our luggage. The house was decorated beautifully with flowers and fresh coconut drinks awaited us. The view in person was so much better than the photos online, which I didn't think was possible! Our outings with our driver, Tyren (sp?), were such a blast, and he was so gracious and helpful! Our family of four had the best time kayaking to Honeymoon Island and snorkeling. Our trip was filled with some amazing excursions, but this was all our our favorite, which says a lot!! We had an incredible lovo with meke and tried kava at the Dive Restaurant at Tony's encouragement. It was SO special!! One night Vinna cooked a delicious dinner for us, complete with banana bread and delivered by her sweet sons. When it was time to check-out and head home, Vinna showed up with flowers to put around our necks. I asked if I could have a hug and she lit up and threw her arms out wide. We were only there for three nights, but our hearts may be there forever. Thank you, so, so much for helping us create incredible memories for our family and celebrate mine and my husband's 25th wedding anniversary. I tear up thinking about how special our time at Vale Sekoula was. Upo"

"Great location and house to stay at Fiji’s garden island. Knox and Kelera are great, which both made our stay even better. Host communication is quick and great. Only complaints are didn’t see the two seater swing as shown in the listing, was hard to sleep since house gets hot (portable A/C unit in bedroom at night would’ve been great), and in the distance was a camera set up. Not sure if it was the properties camera or the nearby resorts but seeing this made it feel we had less privacy. Would love to come back and stay again. "

"Food, room and service excellent "

"In addition to a perfect location, Helene and Peter (hosts) are wonderful caring people. Sorry we didn't have time to get to know them better. "

"Enjoyed staying at Makaira resort. Second time staying here and definitely will visit again if I get another chance to visit Taveuni!"

"Staying here was basically having access to your own private beach. The staff is super friendly and accommodating. This facility is THE number one reason I must return to Fiji in the future. "

"The Bures are private and large, beds very comfortable. The setting and grounds are beautiful, their Staff works EXTREMEMLY HARD EVERYDAY. Everyone smiled all the time and service was perfect everyday ! Food is Chef Quality Liza, the Chef was excellent with her selections everyday. The Bar was perfect and service as well. The diving is the best I have seen in the world for soft coral, the White wall was extremely impressive. All the dives sites are healthy, Lui our divemaster was excellent. Hal who runs the Dive Operation was on point everyday. Can't say enough about the whole staff. My only suggestion is for the Owners to pay their Staff more, they proved to us they definately deserve it !! I've been diving the whole World for 32 years as a Dive Master, Tavenui Dive Resort ranks up there as one of the very best !!"

"We went to a family reunion the location was ideal - property manager - the best aaccomodatinh "

"The moment we stepped on the beach in Waitatavi Bay we realized how fortunate we were to have found this magical place. Taking in the view of the sandy beach, to the crystal clear water & tropical fauna, it was amazing we got to enjoy this beautiful Bay all to ourselves. The Bure is nestled in the trees on the water edge with wall-to wall windows/doors with screens to keep bugs out. We slept to waves, woke to views, & snorkeled exploring the underwater topography. Each side of the bay has amazing coral formations, fish, & sea life. Bure even comes with an outside hot water shower & it was extremely comfortable. We had plenty of storage & area to dry dive/snorkel gear. Staff provided room service if we wanted meals inside the bure or out on the deck. The staff was wonderful, smiling, and caring. Meals are prepared with love, from fresh fish to using the coconuts that grow on the property. Privacy was never an issue when we wanted it. Days we scuba dived, staff arranged with the dive shop for transportation off & on our beach. Staff showed us the surrounding bays by boat, took us on an adventure to the Polynesian village where they reside, they were our guides to the fresh water waterfalls & showed us the hike on property for spectacular views. We were never bored. This was one of the top vacations we've taken. Prepare to be pampered & treated like royalty. Loved the isolation to ignore the outside world. This property was much more than we anticipated or expected!"
