Nakelo Treasure Island Resort & Spa

Serious health risk Unsuitable for tourists in current state Pool closed brown water from kids pool sifting into adults pool algae around pool lights Unable to buy safe drinking water, food of very poor quality - we only stayed 4 hours The 2 other families who were guests (as it was mostly deserted) were trying to get off the island as well - difficult as the wifi did not work either. Very sad as the people are so friendly and we have enjoyed a beautiful holiday here 18 years ago

We had a warm welcome arriving off the boat & even saw a wild turtle. Loved our Bure room with hammock & deck chairs. Clean & well equip, especially with 3 kids. Our housekeeper did the best job & was so lovely. Staff were really helpful. Henry seems to oversee everything & does it well. Kids club staff, Izzy, Ice and Liz also excellent. My 8 year old daughters holiday highlight was Liz encouraging her to dance with staff after dinner. Food & beverage staff were friendly but were hindered by no organisation or system on food service. Everything runs on Fiji time which is fine however if you are prepared that nothing gets done unless you ask, longer wait time and to check for mistakes. Food is hit & miss and can take take 30-60min to come out. It is pricey due to being on an island. We chose Treasure due to the nature and eco tourism aspect. We loved the turtles & iguanas which you can feed daily. Kids club and adults activities also plentiful with good variety. Awesome amount of water sports and loved the pool. Snorkelling and kayaking on the reef was superb. Bring your own snorkel & fins to save time at the dive shop and hassle if sizes are booked out. Kayak to the sandbar and snorkel for the best experience. The island has had cyclone damage and is still getting back on its feet after covid too. I hope the funds are put into resort restoration, food & beverage staff training and eco tourism to bring it up to 5 stars.

Upon arrival at Treasure Island in Fiji we knew it was going to be a very special stay. We were greeted by staff members singing for us at the beach after a long day of travel which was a big and welcomed surprise. This really set the tone for how the staff acted throughout the whole trip. Paul, Henry, Penny and Phillipe were all standouts for us! The waters were clear and very blue showing off the coral reefs we were able to explore as much as we wanted throughout the holiday. There were many options provided to us to go out on a boat for snorkelling, diving or fishing. But even having your own snorkelling adventures off the beach was beautiful with so much to see. The villas were newly renovated inside and were very nice and relaxing to call home for the week. We stayed right by the beach and were able to go swimming, kayaking and sailing at any time. Food and drinks were all great with lots of variation, especially with all the cocktails ranging from local ones to international to cater for all. Enjoying these with a sea breeze really helped us wind down and relax. Please go and support Treasure Island, it’s Fijian owned and ran. They really show you they love the support and want to get you involved with their happy and relaxing lives as much as possible. You won’t regret it.
