Nanuku Resort

Nanuku surpassed our expectations! We stayed in a beachfront villa, the view was spectacular - it took our breath away. The service was absolutely amazing, everyone who works there genuinely cares about their guests, especially the hotel management - they went out of their way to take care of everyone. Our teenage kids had a buddy who kept them entertained each day. The food was Amazing!!!!! The chef is very talented and the menu changed every day which was great. We did the ultimate island hopping tour, which was fantastic, and got to see reef sharks, turtles and dolphins doing pirouettes!! This is a very special place. We will be back!!!!!

This was our first visit, and we will be back. There is not one thing I can think of to improve our experience. The staff, amenities, location, and food were outstanding. If you want a great Fiji experience, consider Nanuku! We will be back 100% - amazing.

The resort was amazing- truly one of the best I have ever been to. Food was great and menus always different. The beaches are extremely beautiful and the pool is quite nice. The rooms are absolutely amazing- we had 0 complaints. The weather was not great for us so we did not get to enjoy any of the excursions or some of the activities, but that's out of their control. The fitness center is better than almost every hotel/resort fitness center I have been to even though it was small. The spa was very nice as well. Highly suggest.

The service was outstanding, with staff going out of their way to ensure everything was perfect. The villa was spacious, impeccably clean, and offered breathtaking ocean views. It's the perfect mix of luxury and comfort, with a team that genuinely cares about their guests. The chefs clearly take pride in their craft, and every meal felt like a five-star dining experience. Our stay at Nanuku was nothing short of incredible!

Some of the reviews are spot on when it comes to Nanuku and other things mentioned were no where near what reality was. Here are the pros of the resort: -Kids Club - spot on what has been mentioned. Our 4 y/o son was paired with Nate and we could not have asked for a kinder and sweeter person to interact with our son for the week. She went above and beyond to treat him like her own family. She helped him come out of his shy shell on Day 1 to have an amazing week. He's been talking about her every day since we've left the resort. -The resort is very beautiful and well maintained. Easy to walk from villa to clubhouse. They will golf cart you back and forth if need/want. -They asked if our son wanted to plant a coconut tree and set up a space/time to plant it with Nate. They attached a note with his name/date on it so he now has his own tree planted at the resort. A very cute and nice touch. They did this for multiple children at the resort. -1/2 day trip to the private island was a lot of fun. The boat pictured in the adventure guide is not the boat you will be taking out. We took a metal dive boat out and wasn't what we expected but the captain was excellent in getting us out there and back safely on a windy and choppy day. Nate went out with us and hung out with our son on the beach looking for crabs while JBale took us out for a snorkel tour. JBale made sure our son was comfortable going out and back chatting and joking with him. -Long boat ride to the waterfall was a blast also. It was a misty rainy day but CeCe helped us make the best of it. She was an amazing guide and pointed out a variety of plants for our son to learn about. Her energy was a perfect match for what a 4 y/o needed on a rainy day. She was a big reason why the excursion was a big success with him. -The bar staff were very good overall. Watson, Wise and Rusi are the stand outs of the bar staff. Very personable and always great to chat with. Here are the average aspects of the resort: -Housekeeping - Water, fridge, towels, and bath robes weren't restocked even when we brought this to management's attention. -The one and only restaurant - Some days at the restaurant were good and some days it wasn't. It's 50/50 if you minus/customize an item from a meal if it comes out correctly and this is after they read your order back to you. At multiple dinners I had to grab a chair for our 4 y/o because we were sat at a 4 top but with only two chairs. I would also have to grab a table setting for him. Having to hunt down our own utensils to eat our meals was more common place than it should be for a self proclaimed 5 star resort. Overall the resort is nice but when you go into it with 5 star expectations you will expect 5 star service. I did give some feedback to management before we checked out and they did comp our final day extension cost ($400 FJD for a late checkout). Travel and Leisure Readers' 5 Favorite Resorts in the South Pacific had Nanuku at number two on the World's Best Awards survey for 2024. Nanuku is good but we have stayed at other resorts that made the top five on that list and unfortunately it is not in the same class as those properties.
