Great Astrolabe Reef Holidays from £1,336

Don’t come here if you don’t like sand littered with coral and seashells, swimming in amazing coral reefs, watching once in a lifetime sunrise and sunsets, swinging in hammocks between palm trees, and being the honored guests of the most kind, good-humored, talented Fijian hosts, and eating delicious food made from fresh local ingredients by a talented chef. Were the complainers in other reviews telling the truth? T or F: The only equipment available for activities were 2 kayaks, snorkel gear and a catamaran that could be reserved with a guide. - TRUE. The spa/massage was in disrepair, the face rest needed better padding but the massage therapist was excellent. - TRUE. The food at Beachcomber resort was better than Nakelo Tr. Is. - FALSE The daily activities calendar was organized and fun and the culture and language classes were worthwhile. - TRUE The infinity pool was yucky. - FALSE There was litter and broken stuff around the resort. - TRUE Some rooms had plumbing issues. - TRUE The turtle nursery was gross and not properly maintained. - FALSE As a marine biology teacher, I was so thrilled at the stewardship of the hawksbill turtles. Being in their presence is very moving. This island is the turtles’ breeding ground. There were no bugs. - FALSE Yes, there were mosquitoes. Honestly not as bad as Michigan or Alaska summer, or Florida. I think all the beautiful birds take care of the bugs… THE BEDS WERE CLEAN! TRUE.

Wonderful place, ideal for a honeymoon or a relaxing vacation. Staff were amazing and made us feel like family, specially Silipa and Serai. Shout out to Jim (manager) which cares about customers and knows the names of most guests. Property is very well maintained and clean. Spa is great too. Coral reef and fish populations are very biodiverse. We will come back!

Dawn and the whole staff were fantastic. The whole island was set up for us to use at all times.

We had a great time, unforunately we came during a fluke of poor weather but still made the most of it. Staff were amazing and kind, they remembered my daughters name alot. We didnt use nanny or kids club but can tell they are grest with kiddos. We used kids club facilities but stayed with her during poor weather. Toba bar and grill has a STAR staff member Kinny. She was absolutely wonderful and showed so much generosity and kindness to my little one. She always looked after us and went above and beyond. Kinny is exceptional. Adi at kids club and the leisure area to collect towels was also so beautiful and always remembered us. Staff are just welcoming from the moment you enter. The club lounge staff were also wonderful to us and to my little one making sure she was happy and comfortable. I wish I remembered all their names but they were great.
