Namale Resort & Spa – All Inclusive

We rarely write reviews, but Namale Resort & Spa in Savusavu compelled us. We (Craig & Tim) celebrated our 15-year anniversary, and it was unforgettable. As two well-traveled men with high expectations, Namale surpassed them all. The staff embodied Fijian warmth, making us feel like family. Our oceanfront bure was immaculate, with stunning bay views. The highlight was a private cave dinner—a candlelit table, flowers, and pure romance. The cocktails, especially the freshly made Bloody Marys, were OMG. The food was diverse and delicious, clearly prepared by talented hands. Even when our flight was canceled, the resort went above and beyond to accommodate us. This was our second time in Fiji, and we’ll absolutely return—Namale made it one of our favorite getaways.

We learned about Namale Resort & Spa through Costco Travel, which provided us a great package for an all-inclusive experience (which it definitely is) we will never forget. From the moment you arrive at the Savusavu airport, you are greeted by resort staff, receive a beautiful handmade flower lei, and are welcomed home. Upon arrival at the resort, the staff gathers to sing and give you an even bigger greeting. From that point on, all the staff go out of their way to make you happy and ensure that you enjoy your time at the resort. We especially appreciated all the assistance and information we received from the reception center and concierge staff, as well as the food and beverage staff. The housekeeping staff are very attentive and friendly, tending to every detail, as are the groundskeeping crew who keep the property well-manicured. We stayed in the Tabua (Whale's Tooth) Ocean Tropical Bure, which provided a wonderful ocean view from our deck. The accommodations are beautiful and maintained daily. What makes Namale Resort so great, is the staff (all local residents). We thoroughly enjoyed interacting with them and receiving their constant "Bula, Bula" (hello) greetings throughout the day. If the world was filled with Fijians, it would be a VERY HAPPY and welcoming place, because that is what you will find at this resort. We enjoyed great meals and beverages every day, and we took advantage of all the resort has to offer (e.g., snorkeling, kayaking, private memorable meals in unique locations, nightly entertainment, feeding the horses, walking the reef, relaxing massages, enjoying the spa, etc.) We cannot say enough about how pleased we were with our time spent at the resort. If you go, you won't regret it.

I went to the Namale resort with four couples for a friend‘s retirement celebration. We had the most amazing time. It’s a great resort because there were only 24 Bures or cabins. There are a maximum of 48 people there at any given time. All of the staff knows your name and calls you by name every day. The food was amazing. The drinks were amazing. The staff is amazing. You can get food day or night in your Bure or delivered to you anywhere in the resort. They had shows every night that you could attend as well as three meals a day and the most amazing drinks. The Watersports were really fun as well. We snorkel and scuba dive almost every day. We had a couple of massages in the spa and hung out in the spa almost every day in the many different pools and Jacuzzis that they offer. The view is incredible from the ocean view Bures. We ended up with a honeymoon suite that had its own private pool and stairs down to the beach. They carve our names into a piece of wood and hung it on our door. It’s all inclusive adults only so it was very private and calm and relaxing. Highly recommend it if you are heading towards the Fiji area. My friends have all been to many different all-inclusive resorts and they said by far Namale is the best. Especially for the price. We booked our trip as a package deal through Costco, which included the flight and the stay.

We came to Namale for our belated honeymoon and it was our first ever trip away from our kids. To say Namale is a special place is a severe understatement, we had the most magical time. The staff are so kind and always have a smile, the property itself is just magical and is kept so clean and perfectly manicured. We were lucky enough to stay in one of the honeymoon bures and the views were breathtaking. Unfortunately, I fell ill part way through our stay but the staff were so incredibly caring and sent freshly brewed tea, electrolyte drinks and some lovely chicken broth to help my stomach. They also called our room the next day to check up on me. These are people that genuinely care about their guests (thank you all very much). Despite falling ill we still had a wonderful time, enjoying the resort facilities including kava bowl, spa facilities, coconut show (a must while you are there, it was great to hear all about how the coconut is the soul of Fijian culture), kayaking, paddle boarding, reef walking, and the namale farm tour, the list goes on and on. We also were lucky to time our trip with the salt water drift (this was an offsite activity and was $99 Fijian per person) but was such a beautiful experience and highly recommend if you can. The nightly entertainment was also very special, we were lucky enough to have many people from the local community come sing and dance which was beautiful to see and be immersed in local culture. I'm sure there is so much more, we were able to do so much in such a short time and we will absolutely be back one day. Until next time!

We did so much research for our honeymoon and Namale was the perfect choice! We spent one week before going back to the main island for another week at a big resort. This part of the trip had no stress and was very special- the staff learned our preferences for dining and the hardest part of each day was deciding what to order at meals! Snorkeling excursions were prime, we also loved exploring on our own and relaxing at the spa. Recommend booking through Costco to get the transfers set up!

It didn’t take us long to realize we were at a unique resort after arriving to Namale. We were treated like extended family returning home. The food/drink, bures, excursions, and nightly entertainment are wonderful. It’s the local staff who effortlessly provides an exceptional guest experience every single time. We’ll be back! 10/10

We booked Namale for our honeymoon, and it exceeded every expectation we had. From the moment we arrived at the airport, we were warmly welcomed by Namale staff with floral necklaces, cold water, and snacks—an especially thoughtful touch after a long journey. The short transfer to the resort made arrival easy, and we received an incredibly warm greeting upon check-in. Throughout our stay, the staff went above and beyond to make our experience unforgettable. With only 22 villas, the resort feels intimate and personalized, allowing us to truly connect with many of the team members. Every detail was thoughtfully handled, including transportation to and from all activities—whether organized by the resort or through third-party vendors—which made everything seamless and stress-free. We would highly recommend Namale to honeymooners, couples celebrating a special occasion, or anyone looking for a peaceful, romantic escape. We’re already looking forward to returning someday!

If your looking for the most romantic destinations in Fiji, look no further than the Namale Resort & Spa. I searched the internet for months attempting to find the perfect place for my wife an I to spend our 50th Anniversary. I was looking for somewhere special, and man did I find it. Namale Resort sits on over 500 acres with only 22 Bures and Villas, which makes for the most peaceful and relaxing place we have ever been. The STAFF made this trip special. The resort is great, but it's the staff makes you feel like part of the Namale family. The staff and management prepared a surprise dinner for our 50th Anniversary evening that brought my wife and I too tears. We had gone to the main restaurant for dinner, but upon arrival, we were serenaded with an anniversary song and then taken to the second restaurant, which was opened for just the two of us. We were escorted through the restaurant to our seaside table along a path of lighted candles and flower pedals. Dinner was fantastic and what a view. The staff and management made this trip and our special day of 50 years together the most memorable of all and again, more watery eyes. Thanks for the memories.
