What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Really good Culinary Experience

The food at Wananavu Beach Resort was simply amazing! I think it might be the best resort food I've experienced while traveling outside the USA. The dinners were always delicious and affordable, especially the lovo feast during our reception. Each meal felt like a special occasion, and the portion sizes were just perfect. Breakfast was basic, but the freshly cooked eggs every morning were a great touch. Overall, I felt the cuisine was one of the highlights of my stay!

Comfort and Cleanliness

I stayed in an ocean view bure that was spotlessly clean and incredibly comfortable. The amenities provided were just what I needed, including tea and coffee facilities and a refrigerator for our drinks. I loved the spacious balcony, which allowed us to soak up the amazing views and beautiful gardens. The room provided a great sanctuary after a day of exploring, with a refreshing shower that was great.

A Relaxing Retreat

The spa services at Wananavu were fantastic! Each day, there was a special discount on different treatments, which allowed for some much-needed pampering. I was particularly impressed by the massage therapist, who was both skilled and attentive. After a long day of diving and enjoying the beach, the spa was the perfect place to unwind and recharge. I highly recommend indulging in one of their treatments when you stay here.

Kid-Friendly Atmosphere

Our week at Wananavu Beach Resort was made even more special by the kid-friendly environment. My six-year-old daughter quickly made friends, and she had plenty of activities to keep her occupied, from swimming and snorkeling to exploring the beach. It was a joy to see her having such a great time in such a relaxed setting. I felt secure letting her roam and play while we enjoyed our time as adults.

Our stay at the resort was an unforgettable experience, thanks to the impeccable dining options and fantastic service. The rooms were spacious and well-appointed, providing breathtaking views and luxurious amenities. However, the Wi-Fi was a bit unreliable, which can be a nuisance for those needing to stay connected. Additionally, while the beach was nice for lounging, it wasn't ideal for swimming, which could be a concern for some guests.

This resort is a true gem, nestled away from the hustle and bustle and offering stunning views and luxurious accommodations. The food was surprisingly delightful, and I highly recommend opting for the meal plan as it was excellent value for money. However, be prepared for some steep walks around the property, and there were a few hiccups with room cleanliness that need attention.

I had a lovely stay at Wananavu, enjoying its stunning location with magnificent views and a peaceful beach atmosphere. While the rooms were spacious and clean, they felt a bit dated and could use some updating. The service varied, with some staff being welcoming and others less so, but this didn’t greatly diminish the experience. Dining was hit or miss, with some meals being enjoyable while others were lacking, and prices for drinks and snacks were on the higher side. Overall, it was a nice retreat, especially for its natural beauty.
