Natadola Holidays from NZ$1,046

Beautiful island. The local staff just amazing genuine people. Island is so close to mainland and the boat/punt which is free & always available. I will be back time & time again

Great room with lots of space

I researched for hours trying to find an island resort that was reasonable priced, with snorkeling off the beach and good food... Mana was it! Great family holiday. We spent 4 nights on Mana island and wish we stayed longer. Today, comfortable rooms, beautiful staff, plenty of activities, wonderful snorkeling right off the beach and great food. We took a few snorkeling trips to the outer reef, including a shark snorkel with our 8yo daughter which was amazing! Also, make the effort to walk down to the village to meet the locals. We bought some Roti off them and our daughter had her hair braided there. We will be back!

Hopefully this is helpful.. Bad: ocean bathing is clean and typical for area but you won’t see living coral along the shoreline. We were not there long enough to take the resort kayaks and snorkels out to where it probably is. About 200 yards I’d guess. That’s the end of the bad.. seriously. Good: Too long to list. Plenty of bula’s and most courteous staff. We arrived long before our check in time and they allowed us to relax and showed us where to park where the coconuts won’t hit your rental car. Food is good and the small size of the resort makes it so nice (they have maybe 12 tables). Sigatoka area is just far enough from the beaten trail that it is perfect. 2 full days with drinks and dinner was about $120 US dollars. Beyond reasonable. Do: Sigatoka river cruise. Pay front desk about 100 Fiji dollars (cash) and they arrange pickup and you pay the remainder at western style shop in Sigatoka (cards accepted). Beautiful lunch with kava in a village. They take precautions like using bottled water for the Kava so no issues. Eat everything, it is delicious. Must do, really. Find a church, regardless of denomination, they’re there. All beautiful with Fijian twists. We went to a Catholic Church (our faith- go to St Ptr Chanel) and also enjoyed the Hindu temples and home markings as well as the Islamic call to prayer which we heard while touring the Sigatoka rugby ground with a friendly player walking home. Truly beautiful. Summary: Go!
