We had wonderful stay - so peaceful and relaxing. A bit windy when we stayed there, but house reef is protected and can be explored regardless. People who run it are very welcoming, warm and trying to please you. We felt like a part of family and would like to come back

Great bure overlooking the ocean and swaying palm trees. The bed was super comfy and the water pressure was fantastic! All the staff were so kind, friendly and welcoming! We truly felt at home. They were attentive to making GF food as well and Sia made me a cassava cake that was so yummy. (Note fiji would be difficult to travel in as a celiac - I am not and can manage some gluten). What a great stay in a beautiful place.

We loved our stay in Naqalia. The staff was super friendly. The meals were excellent, and we were offered "more food. More food." The beach was ideal for snorkeling. We were lucky enough to visit two villages. This was my second stay here... it won't be my last.

Very authentic real Fijian people who are genuinely interested in you having the best time possible doing what you want to do. They want you to feel like it’s a home away from home and I wholeheartedly recommend it for people who don’t need or want a resort experience but want a real Fijian one

Booked 5 nights and ran away after one night. Really terrible place though the staff is very nice. It’s not written but there is no electricity for few hours a day and that means no fans working at night while it’s super hot and humid so no sleep. Wasps flying freely in the rooms, no lock and overall a bad experience. Feel bad for the staff because they are real good people

The stay at Naqalia Lodge was amazing. Great staff and best food we had in Fiji. The food is buffet style and also has veggie options. The staff were super friendly and shared a lot of stories after dinner and at kava sessions. There were a lot of different activities that could be booked.

Lovely family who run the place, but quite fun down. Bungalows were built 20 years ago and have had no renovation. That said everything was functional. No cell signal except in 2 spots by the beach Very intermittently. No ac, no hot water, no locks for the doors. Food was basic but good and plenty of it. Reef shark feeding snokel activity was absolutley amazing. Hiking trails do not exist. Guide needed to hike. I was there alone for one night, then joined by a couple the next. Excellent place if you want peace and quiet
