Toberua Island Resort

The service from the staff and the facilities were outstanding and top notch. It was very evident that they wanted us to have an amazing time. The daily itinerary was very helpful in allowing ourselves to fully relax. The relaxing activities were superb and so was just laying in the hammock behind our bure.

Beautiful place to visit, we had an awesome time, one of our best family vacations, we went for one day and increased another day to stay. Great hospitality , white sand beach with calm and clear waters, this resort has Ocean swim, sea kayak or touring kayak is a kayak develped for the sport of paddling on the open waters of the Ocean, small boats with paddle Sea Kayak was one of the most lovely experience we had every day we stayed. our experience became even bigger when paddling in ocean water, kayaking. Delicious food enjoyed, breakfast, lunch and dinner outstanding people, great service, awesome hospitality, great management. I would love to go there again and agian with our family.

We had the pleasure of staying at Toberua for 5 days in July 2024 and had an excellent experience. The small intimate island, the staff, the hospitality, the food, the daily schedules and excursions offered, and the other guests were all amazing. We were there with our 3.5 year old and 6 month old children, who were a hit among staff and tenderly looked after. The small size of the island was especially helpful for nap time for our kids as my husband and I were able to leave the room easily while one person stayed at the room for nap time. The rooms, or bures as they’re called, were beautiful thatched huts with everything we needed, including large porches with swings, hammocks, and a big, walled in outdoor space attached to the bathroom for washing your sandy feet off. Our 3.5 YO son loved napping on the deck chairs on the back porch, looking over the water. Pretty idyllic nap! One particular highlight that made the trip really feel like vacation was that we were able to feed our kids dinner at 6pm during the “kids dinner” time, put them to bed at 7, and then a babysitter would sit outside our room while we went to the regular dinner at 7:30. There was a small additional charge for this babysitting, but very reasonable prices and totally worth it. Having a leisurely parents dinner was a very relaxing luxury! We also took advantage of the babysitting during the day a few times so that my husband and I could go for a snorkel on our own and take our son out on a boat trip while the baby was watched at the resort. The vibe of the island is very relaxed - Fiji time! The people who work there are incredible - warm, friendly, and passionate! The service was excellent - I loved that we had all our needs met and there was always someone to answer a question if needed, but at the same time it felt private and there wasn’t anyone constantly checking in. While the island is relaxed, I greatly appreciated the attention to detail - for example, our room made up daily while we were at breakfast, and kids meals were always delivered first so that they didn’t need to wait too long. The food was excellent! The breakfast was the same everyday for the most part, but the lunch and dinner menu rotated daily and you would have your choice between 3 options (2 course for lunch and 3 course for dinner) that you preselected earlier in the day. Preselecting meals made meal time run much more smoothly. We loved the beach activities and went snorkeling, paddle boarding, and kayaking! For those who prefer big, shiny hotels or hotels fully sealed from the outside, this might not be the place for you. There is no AC, no TVs, there is some wear on the rooms as one might expect on a tiny remote island (ex: our hot water was broken at first and we needed to switch rooms; the sliding door was partially broken in our second room), and there are some critters that you would expect in the tropics - like if you leave a crumb out (like our 3 YO did a few times), tiny island

From the moment we arrived, we exhaled!! Toberua was everything we needed to unwind, relax and escape our busy lives. The warmth and friendliness of the staff made us feel very welcome and we enjoyed socialising with other guests in the late afternoon over pool and pingpong. We loved the boutique scale of the resort, the tranquility and the privacy. We appreciated getting to know the staff and our son thoroughly enjoyed the volleyball games everyday at 5pm and how inclusive and accomodating the staff were. Toberua is the kind of place you can decide how much you tap in or out. The Villas are private and we had a lovely ocean aspect with a hammock and enjoyed the very comfortable beds. The day spa was well worth a visit and Ima is an incredible masseuse and warm soul. She gave me an amazing 90 min Fijian massage which I can't recommend more highly and did a professional job braiding our sons hair. Highlights for us were the BBQ night and village tour. We took a soccer ball and pump for the village children and our son played soccer with them which was a wonderful way to connect with the local community. The ocean breeze, sunshine and warmth all made for a beautiful holiday we won't forget. THANK YOU to the whole team who gave us a memorable and relaxing holiday. If you are looking for paradise - this is it!!!

Fabulous tiny island, warm welcome with amazing staff. Food was fabulous, snorkeling and diving amazing. Our teens did their PADI course with a VERY patient instructor. Couldn't fault it. Such a rejuvenating stay we are already planning a return.

Amazing location. Small island with low guest numbers. Hosts Nick and Pip and all their staff were wonderful. Great reefs for scuba, great food. The island has its own resident talking parrot, answers to Jack. Regular visits to 2 mainland villages can give guests a different perspective to a resort holiday, plus a chance to benefit the locals and drink a lot of kava. There were many guests who had been before, which has got to be a good sign, and I'll be back for sure.

Thanks to the warm, welcoming staff and the attentive caretakers, Toberua is more of an experience than a destination. The island itself is a stunning dot of green in the middle of clear blue water, and from the moment you step off the boat, you are embraced by the staff and taken into their world. They sing at night, share their home (if you go on the village visit which I highly recommend) and greet you by name each morning. Though you could easily spend a day reading and looking out at the water from your private veranda, there is plenty to do at Toberua. The dive staff is excellent (though I’d advise serious divers to bring their own fins as the dive shop has only snorkel fins) and for non-divers, there is snorkeling, and plenty of day trips and activities on the island. Definitely check out the spa - massages are heavenly. The food is varied and delicious, and the staff come around in the morning to take your order for lunch and dinner. The atmosphere is laid back, friendly, and communal. By the end of your stay, you’ll know the others on the island by name and maybe even make a few friends along the way. I simply cannot recommend this place more highly, and I hope that one day I have the chance to come back.
