Nanuya Island Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Great experience. Would highly recommend. Very friendly staff."

Mantaray Island Resort

8/10 Good

"We really enjoyed our stay at Mantaray Island Resort! We were in a Seaside Bure, only steps from the water and epic snorkeling- the best “house reef” snorkeling on the Yasawa Islands that we experienced. We enjoyed the snorkeling with manta rays and the delicious food. My only challenge was that some kind of bug ate the backs of my legs A LOT when I sat on the lounge chairs by the pool. One week later, I’m still struggling with those bites. I hope they replace those cushions soon- they were pretty worn out in addition to being infested. That certainly wouldn’t stop me from returning!"

Barefoot Manta Island Resort and Marine Sanctuary

8/10 Good

"We had a great stay overall. The manta rays were absolutely incredible, and the coral gardens are some of the best you’ll find. The food was excellent, although the cocktails varied depending on who was making them. The staff were very friendly, and it was lovely being recognised after a few days. Virokai even remembered my name, which made the experience feel personal and welcoming. A few practical improvements would make the stay even better. An information sheet in the bure would be helpful — explaining how lunch and dinner work, what the red coconut is for, and what to expect with cleaning. Cleaning wasn’t consistent during our stay; our friends received fresh towels and sheets halfway through the week, while we had to request clean towels ourselves. The bure was comfortable overall, but the bed was too firm for our liking, and the roof could use a bit of TLC. If you’re coming for manta rays and stunning coral reef gardens, this is absolutely the right resort."

Blue Lagoon Beach Resort

8/10 Good

"We loved the resort: the facilities, the food, the activities, and the kind staff. However, this was the most money I have ever paid to stay anywhere considering the cost of the accommodations and the compulsory meal plan, and I was really seeking peace and quiet after a very hard year of teaching. Unfortunately, our beautiful yurt was right next to the construction site of a new building, and there was loud construction noise all day every day. I would have appreciated a little acknowledgment of that. An apology, a free cocktail or something. Additionally, there were two expensive incorrect charges on our bill. I respectfully spoke up about it, and they corrected the error, but I felt like I got dirty looks for asking them to double check our bar receipts to confirm the error. This place already stretched my budget, so I found that a bit disappointing. Check your bill carefully! All that said, we did enjoy our stay and are grateful for the experience."

Korovou Eco Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed here for 9 nights in the oceanfront bungalow and loved the family atmosphere, the quiet walks on the beach and the beautiful sunsets. This is not a fancy resort but is great value. Beds are comfortable, rooms were simple but clean. There is an excellent reef in front for snorkeling and this is very close to the manta ray migration route. The food is delicious, healthy and very plentiful. You can buy beer and wine at the bar and rent snorkeling gear. We are a retired couple but met lots of young people and families from all over the world."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Matathawa Island?

The best area to stay in Matathawa Island is along the main beach on the northern side of the island, where the majority of the island's high-end resorts are located.

This stretch of coastline offers direct access to the island's best sandy beaches and crystal-clear waters, superb for swimming and snorkelling. The island is small, so wherever you stay along this northern coast, you'll be close to the main dining options and activities offered by the resorts.

Couples looking for a romantic escape will find this area ideal. Many resorts here offer private villas and bungalows with stunning ocean views, often with personal plunge pools or direct beach access. The focus is on relaxation, high-quality dining, and activities like spa treatments and sunset cruises.

Families with older children will also appreciate the convenience of staying in this area. Resorts often provide a range of supervised activities, from watersports to cultural experiences, allowing parents to relax while children are entertained.

When is the best time to go to Matathawa Island?

The best time to go to Matathawa Island is during the dry season, which runs from May to October.

During these months, you'll experience consistently sunny days, lower humidity, and less chance of rain, making it ideal for enjoying the island's natural beauty and outdoor activities. The average temperature is around 26-28°C, superb for relaxing on the beach or exploring the coral reefs. This period is also popular for water sports like snorkelling, diving, and sailing, as the calmer seas offer excellent visibility.

Couples looking for a romantic getaway will find this period particularly appealing. The clear skies and warm evenings are superb for sunset cruises, beachside dinners, and stargazing. The lack of heavy rainfall ensures you can make the most of every day without weather disruptions.

Families travelling with children will also appreciate the dry season. The stable weather allows for uninterrupted beach play and swimming, and the calmer waters are ideal for young swimmers and beginner snorkellers.
