We absolutely loved our stay at Mai sunset resort! We had previously stayed at Barefoot Manta and Barefoot Kuata and Mai sunset was the best place we stayed at during our week holiday. The staff were wonderful, all so welcoming and friendly and we felt that they did everything they could to make our stay as great as possible. We arranged a local village tour and as the staff at the resort lived in the village, they took us there, showed us around, introduced us to their families and even made us some tea and homemade roti, it was amazing! Thank you Ili and Peter for a fantastic experience! The food at the resort was so tasty. On our first evening we were treated to a fijian lovo (underground oven) and they prepared delicious fish and chicken with kasava and salad. Unlike a lot of other local resorts there was no buffet and we could actually choose what we wanted to eat from a menu for breakfast, lunch, and dinner which felt like a real treat! The resort was so quiet and peaceful, and our bure felt like being in a 5 star hotel! We felt so relaxed from day 1 and there were only 8 other guests staying at the resort during our time there who we got to know really well by the end of our stay, everyone seemed happy to be there and it led to a really positive atmosphere, something we hadn't experienced elsewhere. Joelle, the boat captain took us on out on the boat so we could snorkel in the nearby coral for free which was so kind, and we also arranged a trip to the Sawa-i-lau caves on our final day which Joelle and Peter ensured worked out timing wise with the Yasawa flyer. Overall, we had the most amazing time staying at Mai Sunset and can't recommend staying here enough! Thank you so much to Paul, Liti, Peter, Joelle, Ili, Peci, Fane, and Ane, Sota Tale!

The resort is very nice. Even in the little Lodges they have installed an AC. The staff is very nice and helpful and the property is very nice. The two pools are good to relax if you want a bar next to you ;) Both restaurants are very good and we enjoyed our stay.

That it was real, un-glossy insight into Fiji village life today.

What a wonderful and memorable stay in a traditional Fijian village. We liked it so much that we ended up staying in Soso village for a month. Silo, Bill, Va, Rob, Simi, Luisa and Iki, we will never forget the great time we had with you. You took good care of us, prepared extra food for the children and helped us when they got sick. As for the village. The people are very friendly, with a lot of children, so our kids made friends instantly. The beach in front of the village is beautiful, with a nice healthy reef to snorkel and there are some nice hikes with spectacular views over all of the Tasawas. As there is no light pollution, stargazing is breathtaking and the manta ray passage is just around the corner. The accommodation is very basic with a bucket shower and no-flush-toilet, but the beds are comfortable and the food is great. Note that the water available is rain water, so if you want to go safe, bring your own bottled water (or aqua-tabs) from the mainland because there are no real shops on the island. Also, you should wear a Sulu (Sarong) around the village and in church, men too. And it’s expected that you bring a kava root (worth 20 FJ$) and/or some money to present to the chief of the village when you arrive.

Super friendly family which makes you feel really welcome. Very chill place and most beautifull beach and reef in front of beach so far. They arranged diving for us (with Barefoot Mantaray resort). Very affordable activities and arranged private transport to our next resort. Lots of food!!!

This not a resort, this is more homestays, we stay for 6 night, we are a slow travelers. It was just everything that were needed the Food, reef and people we amazing. We already miss Korovou. If you are looking for a cocktail on a fine resort go to different place, but if you are in Fiji for Fiji stay there.

Everything is very well prepare and the place is wonderful.
