Matathawa Island hotels from RM151

"The resort was nice but the people were amazing. Come as a stranger leave as family. Spider man, Moses, Villey, "

"Great coral and fish in front of the hotel, mantas are close by and amazing, resort is nice- more on the rustic side vs fancy, but we liked that. Overall a nice experience!"

"This property is a hidden gem! It was such a wonderful place to stay if you are looking for relaxation. Amazing snorkeling right out in front of the resort! The staff were absolutely wonderful. The grounds were immaculate and the bures were extremely clean. We liked the dining atmosphere and the food that was prepared. Would definitely stay again!"

"I very traditional Fijian island. Loved the outdoor bathroom. "

"I really don’t want to say anything bad about this place because the people were truly fantastic but this was not my favorite stay. In terms of safety (especially being a solo female traveler) I felt very safe. If you’re looking for a secluded and gorgeous spot this is definitely it. The cabins are not great but the location really does make up for it. I did see the biggest spider of my life due to a hole in the bathroom that really threw me off in terms of this stay though. The boys of the owner thankfully came and got it out but as someone who is not the greatest with big bugs, I would recommend finding a more secure stay if that is an issue for you. There were ants everywhere and there wasn’t a fan until I asked for one which made it very difficult to sleep. The electricity is only on at night which is fine but it’s a lot when it’s super hot and there is no fan. The food was always good but you didn’t get any option on what you ate. You got what you got. You also sit with everyone else who is staying at the place at a big table so if you are looking to have your own space or be solo this isn’t the best place for it. Personally I liked it though because it opened conversation with new people. The location really is breathtaking. Everyone is so nice and they have the cutest dogs and one eyed cat! "

"Coralview was a decent experience for us. The staff were absolutely lovely and took great care of us. The burres were clean and spacious. There was great snorkeling just off the beach, and the option of walking over to the Savuti reef (about 1 mile walk along the beach) for additional snorkeling. There were also free kayaks available for use. So, lots to see and do here. There are however, two negatives we experienced. The one minor issue was that we didn't particularly like the meat and way it was cooked (the fish was quite good, but the red meat options were, in our opinion, not great). However, once we switched over to the vegetarian options, the food was quite tasty! Another minor food issue is that the salt shakers never worked due to the humidity - I would suggest that management switch to either using salt grinders, or just put out little cups of salt for their guests. The really big issue for us was that the coral lies in a fairly busy boat route, so we were always stressed about getting run over by a boat - and many of the boats go quite fast over this area, so we ended up not really enjoying the snorkeling. The little yellow floaties they provided us with were useless to us, since we like to do a bit of freediving when we snorkel. Definitely something to keep in mind if you're avid snorkelers like us. This is the one thing that would keep us from returning to Coralview, so we really hope they can do something about this. "
