Mana Island Resort

Mamanuca Group

LoginSave

One of the oldest and largest (at 121 hectares) island resorts in Fiji, the 152 rooms, suites and bures span the spacious, beautifully landscaped low-lying grounds between the north and south beaches. Mana caters for everyone – couples, honeymooners and families – the latter dominating during Australian and New Zealand school holidays. Extensive renovation work in mid-2015 hadn't stopped a near-constant flow of guests.

Celebrity chef Lance Seeto is in charge of the two beautiful indoor/outdoor restaurants, though some guests amble down the beach to sample the eats at the hostels. The resort also has a kids club (ages three-12; $25 one-off fee) and a creche ($5 per hour).

Diving here is run by Aqua-Trek Mana.
