Fantastic staff, always willing to help. Made our stay very personal and enjoyable. The activities they put on were great and there was no pressure to do them, however you were made to feel incredibly welcome if you did. Highly recommend Taveuni and Maravu Lodge

Staff are very friendly. Rooms are basic. We did have a small dorm-sized refrigerator, electric tea kettle, and a small selection of teas and instant coffee. We had hot water for about 1 minute while showering. There was a mini-split for hot days. Nothing fancy here so if you're looking for a special vacation, consider other options. We felt the price was very high for what you get. Also, be aware that they shut off the power every day from 11am-4pm to let the generator "cool off". Would have been nice to know before booking.

Our stay was amazing. The staff really make you feel like family. The treehouse was perfect for our stay, almost two big for just two of us but the views from the deck were to die for. The property is within walking distance from the beach, food, grocery store and the airport. The breakfast cinnamon toast was our favorite the whole stay.

Our stay at Maravu Resort was a great experience. Whilst the accommodation was abdicate there is a lot of upgrading to be done. Any problems we had were attended to immediately. They were only the Air conditioner & Fan. The Staff and meals were fantastic. The lady in charge (Laisani) was friendly & attentive to our needs. Would recommend the Resort to everyone

Taveuni first time

Check was good. We got our rooms at 11.30am since we arrived early. Room was in good condition. Hotel is run on generator power. So there is no power between 11am to 4pm. This not a issue really as during that time we were out. The bar should carry better wine selection. A little inconvenience with the restaurant as we need to pay when served, so we need to carry either cash or card everytime we go to eat.

Stayed in the treehouse and it was a very long uphill trek from reception with suitcases (staff didn’t help) as well as 40 steps up to the room. Wouldn’t have booked the treehouse had we known it was such a trek to the room. We stayed for 3 nights, housekeeping didn’t attend our room throughout the duration of our stay, no clean towels provided, water or even basic amenities such as shower gel. The room was covered in bugs and spiders and even a lizard managed to get in during the night! Would not recommend.

The staff and their service were excellent. They were very friendly and helpful whenever l needed anything. My only complaint lies in the lack of facilities in the room itself. At $175 Au a night l expected at least a fridge, jug and toaster. I was bought a jug on request by a helpful staff member. But much cheaper places have provided the above plus cutlery and china, even microwave ovens. Really at that price l believe more should be on offer. This complaint is for the admin staff only. All other staff were wonderful.

Maravu and its staff is great. Everyone is super friendly and helpful. Rafa, Cali, Solo, Kara, among others, are wonderful. They will take you to the local attractions and show you around themselves. We spent a day with Rafa who took us to the waterfalls. Best hike ever! The hotel is conveniently located by the airport. The burres are clean and comfortable, and the grounds are beautiful. Our kids ran around picking papayas straight off the trees and the wonderful kitchen staff would cut it up for them! Highly recommend.

The position is great the view from Bure 8 is excellent, the grounds are well kept, the food unfortunately is not the best, 2 eggs nicely cooked on very dry toast for $10 and instant coffee for $3, ordered a fish curry one night small but tasty - you won’t put on any weight with these servings. Last night at last fresh local fish - two prices of fish about the size of my thumb - a half cup of vegetables and some fries for $30 I thought was a bit sad, arrived one day for lunch and was told the kitchen was closed, no previous notice and nowhere else to eat near by. After a heated discussion, we had fried rice with vegetables - couldn’t finish the dish it was so oily. I understand that times are hard after COVID, and I really have made allowances, the people are wonderful the site is great the island is spectacular , but I feel the whole island is pricing itself out of the tourist market. For example the walk to the waterfall in May will rise to $50 per person for a 40 min walk in high humidity and extremely steep track.

The checked in receptionist girl was very helpful. If I’m not mistaken her name was Maliana and the security guy was Kali…. two very kind people that made my stay pleasant. On the other hand the one that checked me out was rude and didn’t really listen to my complaint. Her name was Lavinia. I suggest that you do something about her attitude because its people like her that makes me or guests don’t want to stay at your place. Thanks for the checked in receptionist Maliana and Kali that I wouldn’t mine returning because of their friendly personality. When I first checked in Sept 20-22, I asked who the manager was and Kali pointed out to a guy and I think he said his name was Samu. I was surprised when I checked out and asked to see the manager and the lady said she’s the one and her name was Lavinia. I told her I have a concerned about them not letting my guest come up to my room after leaving a message with Maliana that I will be waiting for my guest which she said Ok . Anyway, the problem could be easily solve if that Lavinia would be more understanding, and listen to the complain from the guest. Anyway, that was the only unpleasant experience I had so I suggest to please talk to Lavinia to treat your customer with listening ears instead of trying to be defensive and think she knows it all. Vina’a va’a levu.

The staff is friendly and attentive! Carli's extra activities and explaining about the culture is excellent. The property needs maintenance. For example; the light fixture in the bedroom was broke so, we stared at a light bulb on one side and nice globe on the other (no bedside lamps)The shower head was corroded and sprayed different directions. Bath had a blow dryer but no adapter so you could not plug it in. The decking out front was a little spooky. Glass louvers did not close all the way but, the mini split air con worked well. Something to be aware of...Electricity off between 10:00 A.M. and 4:00 P.M. after 4:00 P.M. the generator starts up and can be heard all night long but, this did not keep us awake. It may be disturbing for those who would like quiet. They are running electric from Somosomo currently.The card activated front door lock battery was low, we guess, and it beeped all night prior to us leaving the next morning. Considering it was a $130.00 USD per night, not to much to ask for these things to have been remedied prior to stay. Good location for walking to dive shop and cafe. Not on the ocean or beach but a pretty nice beach within walking distance. Food was so-so but considering the reasonable prices, cant complain to much. All in all, considering the prices of other resorts nearby, this may be the compromise.
