Malolo Resort
 

We will be staying at the Malolo for a few nights in Oct. Any comments? We hope to do some snorkelling and just relaxing. Is it the right spot for that?

Which island is this resort on then we can help you a little more?

We will be staying at the Malolo for a few nights in Oct. This property is in Fiji. We wondered if there was good<BR>snorkelling in the vicinity.

I've not stayed at Malolo as it is now - but visited some years ago and would not have recommended it. It may well have improved. The snorkelling is not great.

The snorkeling in the water right in front of the resort is not that great, but they send a boat out to Sunflower reef every morning, which is only 10 min away. The snorkeling there is very beautiful.

And I forgot to mention that they have hammocks all over the beach. If you're looking for relaxation, this is the place. They're one of the few islands that has a fresh water spring (most have to bring water in via barge). So, they have a large, clean swimming pool, which is quite nice. I spent many afternoons curled up in those wonderful hammocks with a book!

We stayed at Malolo in August 2001 for a week and loved every minute. The bures were clean and nice. Make sure you ask for one right on the beach. The staff was terrific, too. Snorkeling not good right in front, but take the boat over to the reef. We went diving and it was very good.<BR>We headed for Kadavu the next week and it was more beautiful, remote, and snorkeling and diving was amazing.
