Just BOOK IT! Royal Davui is the most amazing place we’ve ever visited by a mile! My wife and I travel very often and nothing compares. People always talk about how amazing Fiji is. Of course Fiji is awesome, but we were much more amazed by the resort.
The level of service and attention to detail is incredible. They have literally thought of everything!! The entire time I felt like if I thought of something I needed and put my hand out, it was already there. We were absolutely amazed how such a tiny island could have every amenity imaginable. Umbrellas, beach bags, flash lights, clean drinking water in the room, towels, bug spray, sun screen, aloe, etc.
Owner was there to greet us when we arrived by boat and already knew our names. ALL of the staff were incredible the whole time we were there. Knew our drinks, food, and requests almost before we ordered. They made sure to keep us hydrated with water the whole time, wouldn’t let me get up with empty glasses to get a new drink. Everyone just made sure we were comfortable and relaxed and brought us everything we needed. The second you get close to the pool, someone came to bring towels, made sure the loungers were clean and had pads, checked on us constantly.
Food was far beyond what we expected! I still can’t believe how amazing every single meal was. Plenty enough food, even for me. You certainly won’t go hungry here. Drinks were outstanding as well. We are from New Orleans and I would put these bartenders and chefs right next to any fancy restaurant around. As for the drink prices, it’s no different than a reasonable price at a decent restaurant. I read some reviews about the drink prices being too high. I totally disagree. To have the huge variety and unbelievable quality of drinks, I thought the prices were very fair.
Excursions are a must! Sunset cruise and sandbar picnic were both amazing. Snorkeling just 20 yards off the island provided everything you can possibly see underwater. Our guide was great and made sure to point out everything to be seen.
Last but not least……The owners and staff were some of the nicest and hardest working people we’ve ever met. By just the 2nd day we truly felt like family. By the time we left, we were all hugging and tearing up because we had to leave. Too many names to mention but we remember every single person we met and will never forget how great we were treated.
Coming from the U.S., the travel was very long but absolutely worth it! We were jet lagged very badly and fell asleep early afternoon. The staff even called our room to check on us and made sure we got dinner that night.
We will 100% be visiting again. We can’t wait to see all our new friends again and enjoy this beautiful place! I wish it was closer to us so we could visit more often.
