Matei Vacation Packages

My wife and I ventured to Sau Bay around the 20th of June, shortly after it opened. At a high level, we give the place 6 out of 5 stars! At the top of our experience was the incredible staff that greeted us and took care of us throughout our 5-day stay. We had previously spent a couple of weeks at some other resorts in the Mamanuca islands, and while those were also great, Sau Bay stood head and shoulders above them in terms of service, privacy, and overall experience. Sau Bay is a small resort with only a few cottages. It never feels crowded and during our stay the staff outnumbered the guests by about 2 to 1! By the time we left the staff felt like family. Eunice, Sara, William, Carl, Letu, John and little John banded together to give us an experience we won’t forget. Sara took care of making sure we had great dining experiences and also gave us fantastic seaside massages along with herbal therapy to help me ease my sinuses (from a head cold, which unfortunately kept me from diving). Carl and Letu took care of our boat transportation from the island of Taveuni, and also led us on our snorkeling expedition on the rainbow reef. Having snorkeled and dived many locations around the tropics since the 80’s, I can say this was right up there with some of best, unlike some of the locations where much of the coral is dead and the fish are no longer abundant. We also did some snorkeling on the house reef. My recommendation for snorkeling right near the resort is to take a kayak

Private island with no outsiders. Have daily activities for sightseeing and snorkeling. Vert quiet and safe. Staff are very friendly. Great for vacation with privacy!

The hotel is not luxorius by any means, but the trip was amazing. The island is very small, takes less than 10 minutes to walk around. The sand has corral in it. However, I would go back any chance I get. If you are looking for a younger crowd and a good time, this is the place to go.

My stay at the villa was excellent, great communication. There is a caretaker there you can ask her if you need anything. The only thing i would like to point out was that the Wifi kept going out.

Josh and Shabana are great host and the property is awesome. Despite the stormy weather we still manage to have fun there! Great fishing sites! Thank you all so much!
