The Bures are private and large, beds very comfortable. The setting and grounds are beautiful, their Staff works EXTREMEMLY HARD EVERYDAY. Everyone smiled all the time and service was perfect everyday ! Food is Chef Quality Liza, the Chef was excellent with her selections everyday. The Bar was perfect and service as well. The diving is the best I have seen in the world for soft coral, the White wall was extremely impressive. All the dives sites are healthy, Lui our divemaster was excellent. Hal who runs the Dive Operation was on point everyday. Can't say enough about the whole staff. My only suggestion is for the Owners to pay their Staff more, they proved to us they definately deserve it !! I've been diving the whole World for 32 years as a Dive Master, Tavenui Dive Resort ranks up there as one of the very best !!

If you’re coming for a dive trip to Fiji then this is the place to be! The staff goes above and beyond. The service was excellent. The food was sooooo good, I definitely gained some lbs over the course of 5 days. The diving was on another level. The resort is close to rainbow reef, approx 15min boat ride. You avoid enduring lengthy boat rides when staying on the other side of the island. The dive staff was the best we’ve ever been with. Each dive was practically private. It was just my husband, myself and our guide. That alone made it worth all the $ we spent. We’ve dived in other places where it’s groups of 8-10 people which really takes away from the experience. Everyone was so sweet and lovely. We’re definitely coming back!

Fantastic stay, wonderful cottages (burres), excellent food, friendly/helpful/accommodating owners/staff, and high quality rental dive gear. We're hoping to return with friends in June. A couple things to be aware of. TDR specializes in SCUBA diving. Your burre looks out onto the best diving in Fiji, the Rainbow Reef. There isn't a beach to hang out on if you're not a diver (or at minimum a snorkeler). Also, the resort is totally off grid - solar hot water & electricity. As might be expected, no air conditioning. Instead, 2 powerful ceiling fans in your burre. We're from Colorado and were fine the 3d week of August 2024.

If you are trying to decide where to go - just pick this property The staff and people are amazing and that makes your stay. The diving and snorkeling is incredible. It’s worth the trip to the island The rooms are good, with fans that keep you cool enough as it’s cooler overnight in Tavenui, The owners are very good and run a great business, they really care about the guests and it’s boutique with great service. The diving is very well organised and my 14 yr old son did a discovery dive and loved it. We snorkelled most days and saw amazing things. Just book it!! And make sure you stay for 5 days or more

Taveuni Dive Resort offers beautiful roomy bures (bunglows) surrounded by gorgeous grounds and ocean views. The meal service is bountiful and delicious and the onsite diving service offers several daily dive plus snorkel excursions out to Rainbow Reef. They are also happy to assist in setting up tours around the Island including Bouma National Park and waterfalls. Each and every staff member from dining to diving provides exceptional service.

Perfection in Paradise

We went for the world class scuba diving. We were not disappointed. The reefs are pristine and the life is abundant. The resort is ran by an American couple. It is In perfect condition and is ran like clockwork, very organized. From the time we got off the plane, all we had to do was relax!

Absolutely everything one could want in a luxury dive resort. Exceptional service, wonderful cuisine, friendly staff, outstanding dive conditions, short walk or ride to the marina, and best of all the crew handles all your gear so you don’t have to worry about anything and can focus on enjoying your stay. The Rainbow Reef is a world class destination and among the best for blooming soft coral and tropical fish variety. Highly, highly recommended.

Perfect stay and bit of luxury for dive holidays

The resort is perfect. It’s bit pricey though foodwise and diving but it’s worth it. The bures are clean, spacious and comfy beds. The food is yummy abd it’s easy going with the pre-order. The cater for vegetarians and you’re not just getting the sides or anything boring. Jyst give yourselves time for breakfast (1hr before the dive), if there are multiple guests. Staff is super friendly and it’s a great hospitality. The diving is awesome and the team is professional. Reef is intact and you see lots of small fish and corals. 2 tank dive in the morning and if there are 2 people you can do another dive in the afternoon. We hired once the boat in the afternoon fir snorkeling and going to a beach on Vanua Levu. The boat hite is far too expensive with FJD 600.

Wonderful time in Taveuni!

Yes, YES, YES!!! My husband and I were in Taveuni from Thursday - Sunday and had the most amazing time here!!! Taveuni Dive Resort arranged for our taxi from the airport to the hotel, and we were greeted upon our arrival as if we were family that had just returned home from a long journey. The Chef, Clare, is WONDERFUL and she worked with my food allergies and always had lots of options for everyone! The resort is pristine, very clean, and very safe! The dives were absolutely INCREDIBLE!!! And if you want to be driven down to the boat, they will drive you down, but it is only a 5 minute walk. All the dive equipment is up to date as well, and if you NEED wifi, it is provided for free! There is a safe built into every bure, and these bure's are just magnificent! On our last day, they even arranged for the driver to take us to the rainforest, and he waited with our bags in the car while we hiked and they packed us a lunch and he dropped us off at the airport! The owners are a wonderful couple named Carl and Muriel, and Jon is the manager and he is awesome! Ju was with us for every dive and he is just as awesome! Carl, Muriel, Jon, Claire, and Ju - THANK YOU for making this trip so memorable! This is world class service with a local touch! Wish DC was closer to Fiji so we could visit all the time!!!
