It was quiet and safe and we felt very much at peace in our bure, thus the added bonus of its inaccessibility to the noisy public. The Fijian staff are amazingly friendly and welcoming. If there was a negative it would be the food/cooking quality. The breakfasts were outstanding but the buffet-style dinners and lunches were too bland and overcooked and became repetitive! ##### Pamela Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Diemle Apr 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Barefoot Manta was a paradise with amazing crystal clear water.

Also separate ferry ride out to the island - was fun to see all the small islands along the way ##### Frank Stayed 4 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kenneth Jun 5, 2023 Loved our private Bure facing the beach. Loved the friendly, caring staff. Food was very very good and the snorkeling was incredible. If you are looking for a luxury resort, this is probably not it. if you are looking to experience Fiji in a more authentic way you want to go here. ##### Kenneth Stayed 12 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gemma Dec 12, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### One of the best islands, would highly recommend! This island is now my favourite as the staff really make you feel like part of something special and the resorts focus on marine biology has resulted in some of the best coral I have ever seen. Thoroughly enjoyed a week on the island diving, snorkelling and eating way too much delicious food. Made loads of friends and will return again and again. Vinaka Vaka Levu for a fantastic stay. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/18FCAEB8BF704701E2C0C88EA6A714C077044CDA1670840257939.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/22C6C0281E65A9C265FC8AD5C2FB74644A77BF8E1670840257352.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/B500DE76C4EA55CACE79F574B80ECBD897BA0E191670840270153.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Gemma Stayed 7 nights in Dec 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jan 29, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Amazing ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Alan Dec 28, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Awesome for snorkeling right off the beaches. Easy access to sunrise and sunset beaches. The Bures' on the sunrise side are breezy but great for dry cleaning clothes and sleeping cooler. The food was great although I was expecting more fish dishes. Lamb, beef and chicken are the staples, the rice is cooked to perfection and very flavorful. Staff are great and will show you culture and happiness. ##### Alan Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Lomani Island Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Malolo-Lailai-Island-Hotels-Lomani-Island-Resort-Adults-Only.h3790473.Hotel-Information) > > [Musket Cove Island Resort & Marina](https://www.expedia.ca/Malolo-Lailai-Island-Hotels-Musket-Cove-Island-Resort-Marina.h2510693.Hotel-Information) > > [Tokatoka Resort Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Nadi-Hotels-Tokatoka-Resort-Hotel.h5194650.Hotel-Information) > > [Beachcomber Island Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Beachcomber-Island-Hotels-Beachcomber-Island-Resort.h2237632.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree Resort by Hilton Hotel Fiji - Sonaisali Island](https://www.expedia.ca/Sonaisali-Island-Hotels-DoubleTree-Resort-By-Hilton-Hotel-Fiji-Sonaisali-Island.h1584731.Hotel-Information) > > [Mantaray Island Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Nanuya-Balavu-Island-Hotels-Mantaray-Island-Resort.h4917197.Hotel-Information) > > [The Pearl Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Pacific-Harbour-Hotels-The-Pearl-South-Pacific-Resort.h1156925.Hotel-Information) > > [Matamanoa Island Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Matamanoa-Island-Hotels-Matamanoa-Island-Resort.h3044415.Hotel-Information) > > [Blue Lagoon Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Nacula-Island-Hotels-Blue-Lagoon-Beach-Resort.h19370983.Hotel-Information) > > [Plantation Island Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Malolo-Lailai-Island-Hotels-Plantation-Island-Resort.h2160409.Hotel-Information) > > [Namale Resort and Spa - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Savusavu-Hotels-Namale-Resort-And-Spa.h4695750.Hotel-Information) > > [Nakelo Treasure Island Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Treasure-Island-Hotels-Treasure-Island-Resort.h3870.Hotel-Information) > > [Castaway Island Fiji](https://www.expedia.ca/Castaway-Island-Hotels-Castaway-Island-Fiji.h1618373.Hotel-Information) > > [Likuliku Lagoon Resort - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Malolo-Island-Hotels-Likuliku-Lagoon-Resort-Adults-Only.h2194769.Hotel-Information) > > [Mana Island Resort & Spa - Fiji](https://www.expedia.ca/Mana-Island-Hotels-Mana-Island-Resort-Spa.h2188393.Hotel-Information) > > [Fiji Marriott Resort Momi Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Momi-Hotels-Fiji-Marriott-Resort-Momi-Bay.h17398490.Hotel-Information) > > [InterContinental Fiji Golf Resort & Spa by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Natadola-Hotels-InterContinental-Fiji-Golf-Resort-Spa.h2667058.Hotel-Information) > > [Shangri-La Yanuca Island, Fiji](https://www.expedia.ca/Yanuca-Island-Hotels-Shangri-La-Yanuca-Island.h2611.Hotel-Information) > > [Koro Sun Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Savusavu-Hotels-Koro-Sun-Resort.h1324010.Hotel-Information) > > [Warwick Fiji](https://www.expedia.ca/Korolevu-Hotels-Warwick-Fiji.h664202.Hotel-Information) > > [OUTRIGGER Fiji Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Korotogo-Hotels-Outrigger-Fiji-Beach-Resort.h564500.Hotel-Information) > > [Tokoriki Island Resort - Adults only](https://www.expedia.ca/Tokoriki-Island-Hotels-Tokoriki-Island-Resort-Adults-Only.h1859172.Hotel-Information) > > [Yasawa Island Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Yasawa-Island-Hotels-Yasawa-Island-Resort.h564430.Hotel-Information) > > [Fiji Gateway Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Nadi-Hotels-Fiji-Gateway-Hotel.h2346217.Hotel-Information) > > [Nanuku Resort Fiji](https://www.expedia.ca/Pacific-Harbour-Hotels-Nanuku.h6973105.Hotel-Information) > > [Malolo Island Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Malolo-Island-Hotels-Malolo-Island-Resort.h1099259.Hotel-Information) > > [Paradise Cove Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Naukacuvu-Island-Hotels-Paradise-Cove-Resort.h19370922.Hotel-Information) > > [Six Senses Fiji](https://www.expedia.ca/Malolo-Island-Hotels-Six-Senses-Fiji.h22944240.Hotel-Information) > > [Serenity Island Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Bounty-Island-Hotels-Serenity-Island-Resort.h24105137.Hotel-Information) > > [Tanoa Waterfront Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Lautoka-Hotels-Tanoa-Waterfront-Hotel.h1858014.Hotel-Information)
