We missed the place, the staff, the dogs, everything! Felt very at home here with our kids (7 & 9), had a lot of fun, delicious food and amazing trips. Made memories that will hopefully never fade. ##### Tom Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Mark Oct 26, 2024 Liked: Staff & service Beautiful island with great snorkeling directly in front of lodge. Whilst the area in front of the room was clean and well maintained there were piles of rubbish and disused materials spread across the grounds as well as rubbish on the beach. The room and bed were comfortable although the bathroom was in poor condition with cold water shower only which we didn’t mind. It felt quite awkward as the only guests at the lodge for 4 days especially at meals where the nice staff would all sit directly facing us singing and watching us eat including the cute hungry children all waiting for us to finish so they could eat only after we had finished I think it was a good option to stay here for a few days to support the local villagers and get to know some of the locals and its a great location with lots of activities and excellent snorkelling at your front door but it’s very basic, a bit dirty, and little awkward at times. Would recommend staying here for a few days but incorporating it with another resort option in the area. ##### Mark Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verne Jul 16, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Family of 6. Absolutely wonderful. This lodge is run by an amazing fiji family. We felt welcome from the moment we arrived. Nothing was too much. The cabins were very cute, and so much love put into them. A beautiful welcome message in the bed, and flowers we felt the fiji spirit here. Location was gorgeous. Snorkeling was beautiful. Hike up the mountain to watch the sunrise was lovely. Kids enjoyed volleyball with the Fijian family daily. Snorkeling with the sharks was one of the best experiences ever, and in one of the most spectacular reefs I've seen. 10/10. My son and husband went fishing and also had a great time. We got taught how to do fijian dancing, and that was so much fun, had a bonfire on the beach that was magical, and even got to drink kava with the family. If you are after a true fijian homestay type holiday, then this is the place to visit. Drink coconuts, sleep in hammocks, be in fiji time from the moment you arrive. Will definitely stay here again. Really loved our 3 nights, 4 days here. ##### Verne Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### pascal Oct 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We loved our stay in Naqalia. The staff was super friendly. The meals were excellent, and we were offered "more food. More food." The beach was ideal for snorkeling. We were lucky enough to visit two villages. This was my second stay here... it won't be my last. ##### pascal Stayed 6 nights in Oct 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Lea Sep 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Le positif : la nourriture est bonne et le lit confortable. La plage est belle mais malheureusement vite encombrée de déchets avec les marées. En revanche, l’organisation est vraiment catastrophique. Le discours répété chaque jour pour les arrivées et départs est exactement le même, sans aucune adaptation, ce qui donne une impression de manque d’attention. Les prix semblent fixés « à la tête du client », aussi bien pour certaines prestations que pour la nourriture, ce qui est assez déroutant. De plus, les commissions prises pour organiser des activités avec des prestataires sont exagérées, alors qu’il n’y a derrière aucune véritable organisation. Je comprends le Fiji time, mais ici, cela frôle l’abus. ##### Lea Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anna Sep 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very friendly staff, very clean and organised.

This eco-resort is perfect for a relaxing break on a secluded beach. We stayed in a spacious beachfront bungalow for 4 nights. The staff are so friendly and accommodating! You can choose to do a multitude of activities and the staff are happy to take you. All of the meals are freshly cooked and are so delicious! We experienced a kava ceremony and a traditional dinner cooked in a lovo oven. I recommend this resort for adventurous adults who want to experience true Fijian culture and life.

Wish we had stayed longer. ##### Andrew Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Alexander Jun 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities Really friendly and caring staff. They could provide a good array of activities on request. Really good food on offer too. Beautiful location to watch the beach from a hammock. Spotty roaming wifi connection but still able to connect to internet. Minor issues with the power occassionally cutting out at the lodges. More stable power available in the dining hall. ##### Alexander Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sonia May 31, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities We have left a piece of our heart at Naqalia Lodge and at the Yasawa Island. The staff and Management at Naqalia went above and beyond to make our stay nothing short of amazing and they were always smiling and happy to help. We stayed in the garden Bure, a traditional Fijian house, which was a pretty authentic experience of the life on the island. The food was home cooked, traditional and always in very generous portions. We sat at the table with the other guests and were a "family -like" meal times while the staff and management was playing guitar and singing songs for us. The lodge is on the beach surrounded by nature at the feet of a mountain, you can enjoy a spectacular view of the other island when you wake up with the sounds of chicken and roosters roaming around the Bure. The coral reefs just off the beach are SPECTACULAR, we could see many tropical fish of every colour, size and shape. It definitely was one of the best snorkeling spots that we have been to. The lodge offers also paid activities such as shark feeding, fishing and village visit. We spent 4 days there but we really wished we could stay more. Vinaka. ##### Sonia Stayed 3 nights in May 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Meg Apr 23, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 1/10. Fake reviews online. Fake website photos. Villas were atrocious: bathrooms were disgusting with broken toilets, broken shower and basin, basically unusable. Activities were overpriced and didnt deliver what they said. NO snorkelling. Food was basically inedible and way over priced. Dont go! ##### Meg Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Constance Apr 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Paradise with an amazing my kind staff! What a magic place in the world. Naqalia Lodge might be the best place I ever stayed and God knows I have been traveling! It is not a 5 star hotel and the accommodations are very simple but you have everything you need. Sleeping with the wind on your face and the sound of waves, mosquitoes nets everywhere for you to be well. This I will miss a lot. Showers are cold but you don’t really need hot showers as the temperature is quite warm even in the evenings. The spot in itself is for everyone else that stayed here while I was there including me, the best snorkeling spot we’ve seen so far with the most amazing plate corals with all types of colors. Incredible! The activities are great between fishing, hiking (steep climbs!), going to the village is also a must to meet the children. You never get bored and have time to relax during your day and snorkel all day! The meal plan is perfect, you are never hungry and the food is good. Breakfast is the best!! And finally, the kindness, the continuous efforts of the team to make you happy, to make you feel at home but also to get to know you and share their history and culture with you. Oni, Sia, Aku, Manu, Mana, Toui a very big THANK YOU. I will remember your kindness and generosity forever! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/FEB0C370B1D07DA42FBF8607074EE6B82EC862331744504147228.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/183327E7059D3D4DF77A53393553D9FD5F2A0A311744504138869.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5CCAD2FAE4265DF7BFFE660EABC66F4007BCF0661744504155019.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/FCC1DB70634E32E2C531DD98A65188B3561CFD931744504149483.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Constance Stayed 5 nights in Apr 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Helen Mar 9, 2025 Liked: Staff & service #### Amazing staff and snorkeling off the beach Pluses: great staff, lovely family run authentic resort who thank you for coming and play guitar and sing thru every dinner. There's a reef in front of the lodge with the most diverse corals I've ever seen- snorkeled 3 days in a row and loved every minute (and it ended up being some of the best snorkeling we had in the country, and at no extra charge)! Food was great despite cooking for only 3 of us (low season), Fijians love onions and garlic! Negatives: the place is a bit grotty... upholstery on chairs and couches is very dirty. Bathrooms are a bit gross. No fan at night when power is off. No room cleaning in 3 days even after asking to have it swept due to sand tracking in. So take your not-so-nice clothes, mosquito spray and enjoy the snorkeling! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4E628EF1FF2E758948CEA747AB31BA8360209ACC1741556878407.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1DCA247D72687DAEE6D5DCBA23CE35104CF829D51741556878662.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/A64F908B7AFFD724605DE421FF81B773C11411BE1741556878193.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/68061322A8DD1309C67DC357207460831158B3C11741556878507.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Helen Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elena Mar 5, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Had an amazing time here in the dorm! Small, family run property with the best food I had in Fiji. Electricity during the day and decent phone service. Aku and his family went above and beyond making me feel like family. The hike and snorkeling are must dos! ##### Elena Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jana Nov 21, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities If you're looking for a true Fijian experience, picturesque scenery and you want to just relax and soak it all in, this is your spot. It's atmosphere is super calming and welcoming from the first minute. But it's not for everyone as it's not a resort. Think about it more like camping. The accommodation is simple and spacious. Yes, the bathroom is "a bit scary" (that's how our 5 years old described it :-) but you don't need much there. The meals are traditional Fijian. Very tasty and plenty for everyone. Tab water wasn't potable during our stay so we had to purchase bottled water. They also provided drinking water and fresh juices with meals. Staff are wonderful. Great snorkelling right off the beach. We rented a kayak ($50 fjd) to go around the island. It was a good 3 hours paddle. Worth the effort as the scenery is beautiful and there are nice swim spots along the shore. Cell coverage was available only on the beach. We didn't inquire about wifi but I believe they offer paid wifi by the main building. Electricity isn't an issue. They have solar panels and generator. We loved our 2 nights stay and wished we booked 3. We need to come back again :-) ##### Jana Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sheryl Sep 13, 2024 The family has created a very friendly and social environment which we loved!
