Book a Matei Resort

"This is a small resort, with only 4 guest cottages (which they call bures), so there's a lot of privacy. There are expansive views of the ocean, including sunsets. The staff is very friendly, with a wonderful sense of humor, and we shared a lot of laughs. Our bure was cleaned every day. The dinners in their restaurant were delicious, with generous portions. Breakfast was included every morning, and activities were arranged for us."

" Very friendly and welcoming staff!"

"So nice, I stayed here twice. Right on the water. Wave sounds all night. Nice sea breezes. Hosts were attentive and so kind and good. Walk to the airport is maybe 1 1/2 minutes. The views are great morning sunrise, and evening sunset. I will return. Hopefuly 100’s of times. This might be my favorite place on this earth."

"I chose this hotel for the convenience of snorking . Out standing dives every day new location and diversity in coral and sea creatures. Dive master really knew his stuff and took excellent care and safety. The food and accommodation were excellent. Very nice large rooms and modern and large bathroom. The staff was so nice. "

"Simply wonderful home in a great location, the views are beautiful! The caretakers, Vinna and Robert, were great and helped us in so many ways and can even cook dinners for you and deliver them to the house, which was great as there were not many restaurants open in the off season when we were there. Vinna was so caring and comassionate when one of our party became ill she accompanied her to the hospital and back to the villa. I also had mistakenly left a carry-on item at the Nadi airport and Vinna sent her cousin to retrieve it and arrange it to come to the island on the flight the next day. The villa also has kyacks available to use which was a great day trip out to some close by islands. We took advantage of them and packed a lunch and our snorkeling gear and headed out. The snorkeling around island 3 & 4 was fantastic and island three has a small beach and we had it all to ourselves."

"Perfect tropical home with lots of windows and doors for air flow and breezes. The front double doors and the back side doors that completely open the house to the outdoors are wonderful. The view is breathtaking. We couldn't take our eyes off it. The kitchen is well appointed with everything you need to make meals. The walk to the beach is down some stairs. At low tide there are a couple of beaches to choose from and at higher tide you have your own swimming pool to swim in. It is exactly what we were looking for. Byron the property manager and Loata the maid were excellent. Byron helped us make our wish list of things to do happen. Loata came in every day and made beds and straightened up while we were gone. She cooked some of our meals and we couldn't have been more thrilled to taste real Fijian foods. All in all a great place to have your Taveuni adventure."

"Amazing dive masters, fantastic staff, friendly owners, beautiful gardens, exceptional bures, fantastic food, lovely smiles, laughter and fun. "

"Meticulous grounds and house! Everything you need in a beautiful house. Ceiling fans and window screens much appreciated! The airstrip is right behind the house, but there are no early morning or evening flights so not a big deal at all; the kids liked watching the take offs and landings! Jason was very accommodating and helped us arrange some fun activities. Recommend taking the kayaks out to the islands to snorkel! Very friendly neighbours and community, easy walk to markets and organic ice cream stall. :). Highly recommend"

"Wow! The pictures online do not do this resort justice. The staff was amazing. The food was spectacular. The entire island was beautiful and such a treat to explore. Will definitely be back, but in my absence definitely treat yourself to this amazing experience!"
