Culinary Dream

“The food at Jean-Michel Cousteau Resort was simply amazing! I found myself indulging in three-course lunches and dinners every day because it was too delicious to resist. Each meal was a culinary experience—from beautifully presented dishes to fresh, local ingredients. I particularly loved the roasted local pineapple served with coconut sorbet. There were healthy options available too, but honestly, I ended up heavier after my stay due to the irresistible desserts and good flavors.” view full review

Really good Kids Club

“The Bula Club for kids was a highlight of our stay! My children were taken care of by dedicated ‘buddies’ who not only ensured their safety but also organized fun activities like treasure hunts and treehouse adventures. It was such a relief for us as parents knowing they were in good hands while we enjoyed some downtime. Each day was packed with programs that taught them about the ocean and Fijian culture, ensuring they were both entertained and enriched.” view full review

Charming Bures

“Staying in the beautiful bures was a unique experience. They were spacious and well-ventilated, providing a perfect blend of comfort and rustic charm. No air conditioning, no phones, and no TVs made it easy to disconnect and enjoy the natural surroundings. I loved lounging in the hammock on the porch, listening to the gentle sounds of the waves and feeling the ocean breeze. The fragrant soaps and woven fronds added to the lovely atmosphere in our accommodation.” view full review

Relaxation Heaven

“The leisure facilities were excellent for unwinding after a day of activities. I particularly enjoyed the stunning pool area with its comfortable lounge beds that invited relaxation. The resort also offered snorkeling and diving experiences right off the pier, which were simply amazing. The daily schedule of activities allowed me to relax or participate as much as I wanted—whether that meant enjoying a massage or going on a guided snorkel with marine biologists. Every moment spent here felt blissful!” view full review
