Matamanoa
Bula,
I can't express to you how perfect our honeymoon was.
Everything was PERFECT!
Our flight on Air New Zealand from LAX left on time and besides
 plenty
of excellent food and beverages, the movies were actually
pretty good, too. Once in Nadi, we were greeted at the airport
by a Rosie agent and from there, totally taken care of to
what was to be the best week of our lives!
 Once
we stepped off the helicopter and given fruity drinks [we]
didn't have to lift a finger to do anything! Our bure
was clean, spacious and the view was beyond our expectations!
We had the Kabote bure (we found out that all the bures are
named after Fijian birds) which was #21... I tell you this
because it was the last bure on that side of the island and
we got the sunset and moon view every night.
We both also bought massages and a trip to a traditional
fijian village for Christmas services. While there we also
formed several fulfilling relationships with other guests
and many of the staff, which made our vacation all the more
enjoyable. (You were right about the mainly adult guest population
- there were very few children or families - majority of the
guests were couples.)
 I
can honestly say that we made the most of our time at Matamanoa
and took nothing for granted! We gave as generously as we
could to the Christmas fund, but would have liked to given
more. I would recommend (and already have) Matamanoa to
anyone going on a vacation and hope you do, too.
Vinaka for doing such a fantastic job and spending
the time and energy answering all my questions and calming
my nerves.
You'll hear from us again when we decide to book our next
trip to Fiji. If my wife, Jessica, has her way, you'll be
getting a call from us next week!
Sincerely,
|
We
absolutely loved it! The people who work at that resort really
make
the experience a special one. We made tons of friends there
both with staff and with guests. The guests that were there
when we first arrived made the place seem like home. It
was so fun to laugh and have fun with those people. We
were the only Americans for a while, which was fun. I did
five dives while I was there and would recommend you suggest
anyone who dives to take advantage. The song they sing to
you when you depart gave both of us some kind of weird wet
eye reaction, one we had not experienced the entire time we
were there!
We
just arrived home from Namale and wanted to drop you a note
of appreciation for your help in making our trip and stay
perfect!!! The accommodation as well as the staff at the resort
were well beyond our expectation and we were very pleased.
We will recommend Namale as well as your services to several
friends and we plan on returning in a couple of years.
Thanks again for all your help.
beautiful
and relaxful. We did alot of diving especially off the coast
of Matangi. We dove "the supermarket" off the coast of Tokoriki
and swam with the sharks and a bounty of other fish including
barracuda. We really had a GREAT time and will definitely
go back especially to Matangi.
I
want to thank you for arranging our recent trip to Fiji. 
there
were some of the nicest and friendliest people anywhere.
They felt like family by the time we left. We particularly
enjoyed all the opportunities for special trips for two to
places line Nookie Nookie Island and Long Beach as well as
hikes and the village trip. We also enjoyed meeting the other
guests and were lucky to participate in one couple's wedding
with all its attendant traditional Fijian celebration. The
food and accommodations were great as was the special level
of service. Despite a full house most of the week, it
often seemed like we had the resort just to ourselves.
