Amazing place where picture postcard sunsets are the norm. Staff know your name and make your stay so much easier with their friendly welcomes and calm nature…..Food at Dicks was an absolute highlight with a changing menu daily that never let us down. From a world travelling couple this place hits our top 5 *****

Great accomodation, pools, and activities. We had all inclusive meals and Dicks Place was excellent. The cafe food and service was not the same exceptional standard unfortunately. We had a cyclone come through during our stay and we felt well informed and cared for.

Such wonderful, friendly staff - you feel like you're part of a family straight away. The accommodation is lovely, plenty of free and paid activities from the resort, beautiful pool, great food, yummy cocktails, great music! It's not a resort that caters to children - which is great if you're not travelling with kids, but they are definitely still welcome. I went with a group of girlfriends- we had the most amazing time and will certainly go back. Absolutely loved it.

My recent Fiji experience far exceeded my expectations! Musket Cove Resort staff were very friendly, the food was great, we had a meals package and enjoyed all meals from Dicks and Trader Cafe, large meals, with a lot of options. Everything was very clean and our garden bure was very spacious and comfortable. We especially enjoyed the entertainment 🎶 There were a lot of tours to choose from, free and $ We were already planning our next trip to Musket Cove Resort at the airport heading home! Just loved it!

Musket Cove was beautiful, we stayed in a beach bungalow which was amazing and had the best views. Having breakfast, lunch and dinner included in the package was so handy and the choice was plentiful. We preferred to eat at Traders Cafe though as the food there was nicer, we did however eat at Dicks place when they had the pig on the spit night which was lovely. Special shout out to Inny at Dicks Place, she is just a beautiful soul who was so helpful and tentative to us. There are a lot of activities you can sign up to that are organized through Musket Cove they also offer free snorkeling trips at low and high tide around the resort, free canoe and paddle board usage, we also hired a bike for 24 hours and went way up the hill to check out the view/rest of that side of the island. We canoed to Plantation Island and had a look around there. My partner now fiancé proposed at Musket Cove during a pier dinner, just a stunning backdrop, food however was pretty average for this particular dinner. All in all was a great stay and i would highly recommend the beach bungalows. Thank you Musket Cove for the wonderful stay, we can't wait to one day return. …

Musket Cove was everything we had dreamed of and more. the Adult only beach front Bure was heaven it was the down time we needed to recharge, from reading a book to taking a dip in the beach. this a great holiday resort offering meals included packages with 2 places to choose from for Breakfast Lunch and dinner and the food is so good, plus if you want the trader store has BBQ packs you can cook your self over at the Island bar. The staff go above and beyond always friendly and very helpful, the Island has plenty of activities in offer, we went to Cloud 9 and Island hopped both were exceptional. we will be back hopefully next year.

We’re home from a great stay at Musket Cove, and we wish we could turn around and go right back. The perfect small island location in Fiji, with the friendliest, hardest-working staff we’ve ever encountered at a hotel or resort. From Cliff, Tamarie and Suala in guest services, to Ruth, Api, Druma and the whole team at the activities bure, to sweet Inny, who made us feel like the most important guests at Dick’s Place every time we arrived for a meal, everyone went above and beyond to welcome us and make us feel at home. Many of them learned our names on the first day and gave us a personal greeting every time they saw us on the property. We loved the spacious bures, with a housekeeping staff that attended to every detail of the room, and brought water, fresh flowers and delicious shortbread cookies every day. And yes, it’s the tropics, so you’re going to get mosquitoes on the outside, geckos on the inside, and bullfrogs on your lawn…but you’re also going to get the incredible Fiji island life, with gorgeous beaches, warm water, amazing coral and sea life, and the best snorkeling we’ve ever done. The only thing we wouldn’t recommend was Trader Cafe. We tried it three times, and all three times we experienced very slow, poor service and an indifferent attitude from the staff. We even had to leave without eating once because we were scheduled for an excursion and had been waiting over an hour for our food. They also serve paying customers from the Marina, so between that and the all-inclusive guests at the resort, maybe it’s just too much to handle. But that was the only disappointment on an otherwise wonderful experience! Vinaka Musket Cove!…

This resort is a fantastic place to stay and unwind!!! The Staff are the most friendliest, most welcome, most helpful and gave us a beautiful welcome and send off. A 10/10 rating for All. The food at Dick's Bistro is absolutely delicious and in abundance, with a great selection of all foods at every session. We stayed in a Lagoon Bure which was very nice with a very comfy bed and with all the normal facilities, serviced daily. The pool is tops for a nice swim and has a swim up bar for a cocktail. The beach is also excellent for a swim as well. Pro's A beautiful place to stay with great facilities Beautiful Staff always with a friendly smile and Bula welcome Dick's Bar & Bistro a great place to eat and have a drink Con's The water in the Lagoon Bure is rather brown in the hand basin and toilet, ( was told by staff not to drink it or clean toothbrushes with it ). Would be great if they could put a filter in to make it better! Could do with more adult and children activities, like parasailing, or pulling a rubber tube behind a speedboat with people sitting on it, or kite surfing. Even a large inflatable play ground on the water the kids would love! Some small area's need some maintenance done like cracking around the pool, tiles missing as well, and tiles missing or broken in the shower in the Bure. Overall we gave Musket Cove Resort an 9/10 rating. …
