A home away from home

I stayed in this resort for 5 nights, and the staff around there was really friendly and took well care of you. A gold star to the kitchen staff who did an effort for my vegetarian meals.
Bring a good book, snorkel gear and have some lazy days on the beach.
Thank you Namuka for this great time. Se you next time. :)

Apart from the beautiful empty beach - we loved the relaxed remoteness of the location, our outdoor shower, and not having electricity daytime. There was quite a bit of coral off the beach, and little fishies to make snorkeling interesting too, very shallow though. Also the staff were lovely.

Don't come here if you crave international resort service and anonymity, this is a local gem, no TV, no pool, no spa, no golf... A few details around the restaurant (which serves home-cooked food and you need to order in advance) could be improved, for example - serve butter instead of margarine, include a choice of non-black tea.
We appreciate that cyclone Winston destroyed a lot of crops this year, but this is a place we would love to be served locally harvested foods from the farm. Preferably organic.

Thank you for your comments , actually namuka bay lagoon resort is fashioned with eco toursim and organic in nature. The remoteness of the resort lagoon and its forests in teh background provide a seclussion which discourages mass tourism. Crops have been gron and it will be ready for harvesting in a months time . Thank you so much for giving us a chance to serve you. Please do come again and do spread the word about namukas authentic no frills experience that lots of visitors are craving but miss out do to the mass marketing by the bigger resorts.

I needed to connect with myself again and can not think of a better place to do it in. Thank you for such an authentic experience. It really is hard to switch off. Namuka Bay facilitates this gently. If you get a chance sit on the lounge built by Simon and stare straight up to the stars.

Thank you for your comments. Please do pass the word around. There are lots of visitors looking for this experience but they seldom find it due to mass marketing by other resorts
please remember that we have only 8 villa units and a lagoon that is unpolluted and a beach that is remotely secluded , ensuring that your experience in fiji is a private and memorable one

We had a one night stay here recently and it is a bit of a hidden gem. The road from the main highway is a bit of an adventure but will be suitable for most vehicles, just drive carefully on the gravel. The location is amazing on a really unspoilt piece of coastline with nothing aside from bush and some farmland surrounding the 5 or so cabins behind the beach. The rooms are nice, not flash and reasonably basic compared to the bigger resorts but they have everything you need (no fridges though). We were travelling with our toddler and it was a great place for him - safe, lots of room to roam around and lots of animals to spot. The service was very warm and efficient and we enjoyed the home-cooked food. For those looking for a alternative to the big chain hotels and a very relaxing holiday away from the big smoke Namuka is perfect.

Thank you for your comments about namuka bay .. indeed if families knew that namuka was not only a resort but it catered for the health concious and eco touristic and familiy minded traveellers than we would have more familiies come and stay. Please do pass the word around. Our lagoon is the safest place for toddlers to swim and catch a sight of coral fish, while the adults venture to the coral reef for snorkelling and kayaking

To whom it may concern

My wife and I have been here a few a few times and also with some of my wife's immediate family members. This place is just amazing. Would love to go back there as soon as possible. Very lovely. Worth a visit. Great snorkelling, great food, great service. Beautiful people too.

5 stars from me,

I wasn't sure what to expect when I booked to stay at Namuka Bay Resort and the drive there certainly didn't prepare me for what greeted me at the end of the 6km winding dirt road along the escarpment leading to Namuka Bay. The friends that drove me down were quite concerned about my choice till we arrived to our destination then we were all left in awe. Words couldn't express our amazement at the stunning views, the accommodation, although not 5 star resort was certainly comfortable and more than adequate for my stay.
Namuka Bay Resort is a family owned and run resort and restaurant on a pristine coral bay with a reef break. The villas are all along the beach front and the views are stunning.
I had spent 10 days showering in cold showers so the hot showers were a welcome bonus. I loved the quiet surroundings and the owners and staff were all wonderful to me. I arrived and was running a fever and they all looked after me but still allowing me space to be on my own. They were more then helpful in supporting me by even offering to see a doctor. Unfortunately due to me being sick I was unable to do any snorkeling, swimming or other outdoors activities but if I ever return to Fiji this is the place that I will be returning to and spending most of my stay at. This is not the place if you are after the night life and a 5 star resort but for those who appreciate the quiet peaceful atmosphere this is the dream get away to do as much as you want or as little as you want. I would recommend that you rent a car if you want to venture to other places as there is a bit of a track in and out of the resort. I don't think my words have really expressed adequately how I feel about this place. Definitely coming back if I return to Fiji again. Jadranka Burns
