nothing to mention here

The Bungalows are super perfect - nice shaped, well styled and the entire accommodation was just perfect. The restaurant is outstanding and offers a great breakfast, super lunch and amazing dinner, with stunning ocean views. The staff is super friendly and helpful. Thanks to Rod and Kathryn and their team for this perfect start into our holiday. Hope to come back

Our stay at Aroha Taveuni was a special experience. Catherine and Rod were excellent hosts, always willing to answer questions and give us advice about what to do and where to go. The staff were wonderful -- friendly and welcoming -- and the meals were superb, cooked by the very talented chef Chris. The bures too were very well designed, comfortable and spacious with easy access to the beach and an incredible view over the Somosomo Strait -- the sunsets! We did a number of excursions from Aroha -- birdwatching, a visit to Bobbi's farm, the Lavena coastal walk, and snorkelling on the Rainbow reef -- which were all exceptional. Taveuni is truly the garden island of Fiji.

We had requested to go scuba diving but nothing was communicated or arranged prior to our stay. So when we got there everything was booked

Very friendly staff and owners and went out of their way to help you.

Aroha is a gorgeous property, there are only 5 bures and the landscaping is impeccably kept, the pool super clean, it's quiet and relaxing. Our stay already started off amazing by the resort's owner Rod picking you up from the tiny airport after an amazing flight with the best vistas below. We had our 25 year old daughter with us and were assigned a double-guestroom that was clean, quite large and exceeded our expectations. There was even a small kitchen area with a fridge and some basic essentials, like a water cooker, glasses, etc. The outdoor shower was our favorite, the beds spacious and comfy. We looked forward every single day to our breakfast outside in the beautiful restaurant on the resort. The lunch menu is extensive and the dinner menu rotates daily with delicious choices. The owners Rod and Kathryn really take great care of their guests and made plenty of arrangements for sightseeing, taxis and massages. Aroha Resort is simply wonderful, and we could not have been more pleased with this amazing find.

If there is one recommendation, maybe to include also the option of a different kind of breakfast other than continental

Everything was perfect! We enjoyed a lot our stay

The bures are beautifully situated with breathtaking views of the nearby islands. The garden is beautifully landscaped with exotic plants and flowers. The staff is very friendly and will always address you by your name, and the owners also do everything they can to make your stay as pleasant as possible. The food is delicious, and all of this offers excellent value for money.

Love EVERYTHING!

Absolutely everything! Katherine and Rod take Pride in there new ownership of this resort. Beginning with the airport pick-up and continuing through each meal planned and prepared by the in-house restaurant, everything was perfect. Katherine was fantastic at helping us plan and reserve all of our local Taveuni activities from snorkeling and scuba diving the rainbow reef to waterfall hikes, birdwatching, waterslides, and so much more. If you prefer chilling at the pool and a casual kayak or paddle boarding, Aroha has you covered there also. A super comfortable and relaxing stay!

We just finished our honeymoon at Aroha Taveuni and honestly, it was one of the best places we’ve ever stayed. The bures are super comfortable, the beds are great, the outdoor showers are awesome, and the view from the front porch amazing. It was so quiet and peaceful, we could’ve easily stayed for weeks. Kathy and Rod and all of their staff were incredible hosts, super friendly and helpful with anything we needed. It really felt like nothing was too much trouble. The food at Kai Time, the restaurant next door, was also spot on. Great variety, fresh ingredients, and the service was excellent. If you’re looking for a chill, beautiful spot to relax in Taveuni, this is it.

NOTHING. We are so sad we have to leave this beautiful place.

We booked two nights at Aroha and on the day we arrived we extended our stay because this place IS paradise. The bungalows are clean and I mean clean clean. Also the pool is probably one of the cleanest I have ever swum in. The beds are so comfy, the outdoor shower was great as you can see the stars when showering. The owners payed attention to so many details and you can just feel they put their heart into making Aroha a special place. They have a little restaurant and we went there every day for breakfast, lunch and dinner and every single meal was delicious (Krish the chef did an amazing job). The staff is kind and they really try to make the best out of your stay. We felt so welcomed. Aroha has new owners since the beginning of the year and they made some changes to the furniture so the bungalows were even nicer than on the pictures. Another thing is their new coffee machine, the coffee was excellent! The garden and the property are well maintained, the beach is only five steps away from the bungalows and you can see a beautiful sunset every night.

Restaurant/food could use some improvement. But they are aware and working on it. They just purchased the resort recently.

Want to get off the grid? This is your place. (They have starlink if you want to stay connected) It's remote, quiet, peaceful, and beautiful. Rod and Catherine the owners could not have been better hosts. It's a small resort only 5 rooms . There is plenty to do on the island or you can just chill in the pool. The diving and snorkeling is world class.

Pool needs to stay open later.

The landscape and gardens were beautiful and I do landscaping for a living. The food is very good at the restaurant on site. The rooms were awesome with the outdoor shower and kitchen but the highlight was the oversized king bed, sheets and 6 pillows!

not much

Amazing stay, felt like staying as a gust in Kathryn and Rods home. would highly recommend and we will be back on our next work trip

Stayed in April 2025

Note the beach is not really swimmable outside high tide. 4% credit card surcharge applied on booking.com booking that stated “all fees included”, most unusual

Lovely bures on the beach with fantastic dinners (seafood menu of the day, changes daily), good aircon, good wifi. Massages are excellent, a very good dive centre (Taveuni Ocean Sports) is a 15 min drive away.

Stayed in April 2025

Meals in the restaurant were sometimes quite slow, but food always delicious and worth the wait.

Comfortable accommodation with an amazing view and just a few steps from the beach

We had a wonderful stay in Arona Taveuni! The property had just recently been purchased by new owners, Rod and Kathryn, who were very welcoming, and happy to offer their suggestions for activities and to assist with the bookings. The staff, whether the cooks, the housekeepers, the restaurant servers or the handyman were all lovely and seemed genuinely interested in interacting with the guests. The property, both the rooms and the grounds are very clean, tasteful, and super well maintained, and we really enjoyed having the outdoor room with some kitchen facilities. This is not the kind of hotel you go to if you wish to be close to nightlife or lots of restaurant options (there is just the restaurant at the hotel but it serves excellent food!). If like us, however, you are looking for peace and quiet and a lovely spot to relax you couldn’t do better! Also worth mentioning… We happened to get caught in Cyclone Rae the last day of our stay and Kathryn and Rod were terrific about ensuring that we had the latest information about flight cancellations, and reassured us about being able to accommodate us for the unforeseen extra night we had to spend on the island. It was also clear that the safety of their guests and staff was a top priority.

Nothing not too like

The whole place was beautiful. the Bures were amazing, and sea views from all rooms, pool and restaurant. The rooms were so comfortable and the decor so very well done. Staff were lovely and super helpful. The restaurant served really good food, with some dishes changed up every night. Kathryn and Rob were super hosts, and considering they only took the business over 7 weeks ago, I feel they have taken to it like ducks to water. I would definitely recommend a stay here. You won't be disappointed

No words can describe how much of a wonderful time we had at your resort. The new owners are very accommodating and have gone out of their way to make our stay exceptionally memorable. I would highly recommend this resort for couples and families alike. Rooms are very clean, as well the restaurant is phenomenal daily specials, wood fire pizza oven, smoothie bar, and a state of the art espresso machine that was in transit at the time of our stay however we are looking forward to enjoying it on our next visit! All the best to your new venture and we will for sure see you and stay at your resort again.
