We had really a nice stay in Maravu Lodge wirh a wonderful view of the ocean to enjoy the beautiful sunsets from our bure. The di e centers are vety close (we can really recommend "salt divers" with their daily dive trips to the rainbow reef) and also the restaurant inside the Lodge. We loved the delicous food. The staff was very helpful in organizing our trip to the Bouma waterfall. We enjoyed our stay a lot.

Overall nice little lodge with helpful staff. The shower water (temp and pressure) needs some attention. But not a major distraction as the overall everything else was good. Restaurant onsite was good with a daily evening variety.

Loved my week long stay at Taveuni. I decided on this place for the grounds, accessibility to the ocean, and opportunity to interact with others. The plantation grounds were lovely. Rooms are variable - I recommend Bure 112 (upgraded) or 5. Haven’t seen many others. The restaurant was reliable - big meals in the evenings. Great omelet and pancakes. Try the road for the best roti, papaya and plantains or a fish meal for $1.50-$5 US. Kava and songs in the evenings. Lovely ladies in staff will help you with everything you need. Fins and snorkel, towel rental. Shower out back for late flight departures. Nice pool. Central location. Excursions with Pete, Mateo and Batman car were great. Walking distance to a couple food places, airport and two small markets, and beautiful evening sunsets (Tramonte)/sunrises.

Shower is outside, not private. Toilet didn’t flush. They turned off the electricity from 10am-3pm every day. One little ac unit for too large spaces. Windows didn’t close properly. Staff was wonderful. Facility poor.

I really enjoyed my stay at Maravu Taveuni Resort. My bure was beautiful, with the added charm of an outdoor shower, and felt tucked away in the jungle while still offering stunning sunset views over the ocean. The shower had trouble with water pressure and heat with the drought. The staff made the experience especially memorable. Ima and the front desk team were always warm, welcoming, and helpful. Rafa and Cali were incredible guides. I had a great time on my trips with Rafa to the waterfalls and the Waitavala waterslides, where he taught us so much about the island. I also appreciated that he helped me and another solo traveler split a trip when not enough people had signed up. It meant we still got to enjoy the experience. Cali and Rafa also shared local traditions and knowledge, from basket weaving to identifying fruit trees, and the nightly kava ceremonies with music were such a special way to connect with Fijian culture. The resort itself feels less “resorty” and more like an authentic island experience, with a strong sense of community and adventure. The staff go above and beyond to help arrange snorkeling, diving, taxis, and guided excursions. The restaurant food was excellent, and they were accommodating of dietary needs. Maravu is the perfect choice if you want to experience the natural beauty and culture of Taveuni with kind, knowledgeable people to guide you. I left with wonderful memories and would gladly return.

A quiet and peaceful place. The staffs are very friendly and helpful. However, you shouldn't expect the room to be cleaned, probably due to lack of house keepers. The check-in time is 2PM, but I needed to wait till 4PM since the room was not ready. Also, the next day the house keeper came around 5pm and it was too late. On the third day, I had requested cleaning for the room, but they didn't even come to the room.

Our stay was amazing. The staff really make you feel like family. The treehouse was perfect for our stay, almost two big for just two of us but the views from the deck were to die for. The property is within walking distance from the beach, food, grocery store and the airport. The breakfast cinnamon toast was our favorite the whole stay.

Our stay at Maravu Resort was a great experience. Whilst the accommodation was abdicate there is a lot of upgrading to be done. Any problems we had were attended to immediately. They were only the Air conditioner & Fan. The Staff and meals were fantastic. The lady in charge (Laisani) was friendly & attentive to our needs. Would recommend the Resort to everyone

Staff are very friendly. Rooms are basic. We did have a small dorm-sized refrigerator, electric tea kettle, and a small selection of teas and instant coffee. We had hot water for about 1 minute while showering. There was a mini-split for hot days. Nothing fancy here so if you're looking for a special vacation, consider other options. We felt the price was very high for what you get. Also, be aware that they shut off the power every day from 11am-4pm to let the generator "cool off". Would have been nice to know before booking.

Taveuni first time

Check was good. We got our rooms at 11.30am since we arrived early. Room was in good condition. Hotel is run on generator power. So there is no power between 11am to 4pm. This not a issue really as during that time we were out. The bar should carry better wine selection. A little inconvenience with the restaurant as we need to pay when served, so we need to carry either cash or card everytime we go to eat.

Highly recommend!

Maravu and its staff is great. Everyone is super friendly and helpful. Rafa, Cali, Solo, Kara, among others, are wonderful. They will take you to the local attractions and show you around themselves. We spent a day with Rafa who took us to the waterfalls. Best hike ever! The hotel is conveniently located by the airport. The burres are clean and comfortable, and the grounds are beautiful. Our kids ran around picking papayas straight off the trees and the wonderful kitchen staff would cut it up for them! Highly recommend.

Stayed in the treehouse and it was a very long uphill trek from reception with suitcases (staff didn’t help) as well as 40 steps up to the room. Wouldn’t have booked the treehouse had we known it was such a trek to the room. We stayed for 3 nights, housekeeping didn’t attend our room throughout the duration of our stay, no clean towels provided, water or even basic amenities such as shower gel. The room was covered in bugs and spiders and even a lizard managed to get in during the night! Would not recommend.

The staff and their service were excellent. They were very friendly and helpful whenever l needed anything. My only complaint lies in the lack of facilities in the room itself. At $175 Au a night l expected at least a fridge, jug and toaster. I was bought a jug on request by a helpful staff member. But much cheaper places have provided the above plus cutlery and china, even microwave ovens. Really at that price l believe more should be on offer. This complaint is for the admin staff only. All other staff were wonderful.

The position is great the view from Bure 8 is excellent, the grounds are well kept, the food unfortunately is not the best, 2 eggs nicely cooked on very dry toast for $10 and instant coffee for $3, ordered a fish curry one night small but tasty - you won’t put on any weight with these servings. Last night at last fresh local fish - two prices of fish about the size of my thumb - a half cup of vegetables and some fries for $30 I thought was a bit sad, arrived one day for lunch and was told the kitchen was closed, no previous notice and nowhere else to eat near by. After a heated discussion, we had fried rice with vegetables - couldn’t finish the dish it was so oily. I understand that times are hard after COVID, and I really have made allowances, the people are wonderful the site is great the island is spectacular , but I feel the whole island is pricing itself out of the tourist market. For example the walk to the waterfall in May will rise to $50 per person for a 40 min walk in high humidity and extremely steep track.
