Mai Sunset Island Resort

We had an amazing 2 night stay at Mai Sunset, we wished we were able to stay for longer! The perfect place to completely detach yourself from the world and any stresses. We were greeted with a welcome song, flower necklaces and fresh coconuts. We stayed in a female dorm which consisted of 4 single beds, a large bathroom and an outdoor shower, basic but everything you need! Fast and free wifi in the restaurant area. The staff here are so friendly and welcome you in as if you are part of their family. They remembered all of our names. Breakfast, lunch and dinner was all delicious! Offering western foods and traditional Fijian food, we ate mostly Fijian food. We visited the local village where all of the staff that work here are from. Everyone was so friendly and happy to see us when we were there. It really put life in to perspective for us and made us feel even more grateful for the life we have. The older boys climbed a coconut tree and gave us a coconut each to drink! They were so happy to talk and share their village with us. Would definitely recommend taking some gifts for the children of the village, toys, colouring books etc. Also, take some cash if you want to buy some souvenirs like bracelets and necklaces from the local ladies. They are the kindest people and the school children are so sweet and polite. At 4pm they have volleyball, a lot of the staff get involved too. Great fun! Kayaks and snorkels available free of charge. Not a great deal of flipper sizes. We hope the staff are treated as they deserve to be treated as they are what made our experience such a happy and positive one. A special thanks to Jay, Elenoa, Venny and Anna who made our stay here a memorable one!
