The staff and the grounds are amazing, with an almost private beech in front of resort and an even more private beech a few minutes walk away. The road in is rough and it is at least 30 minutes drive to the nearest store. Sadly the resort no longer operates a bar or sells alcohol so you must BYO or walk 10 minutes to the Barefoot Resort. Breakfast and dinner excellent and good value for Fiji. Would stay again but bring more supplies.

We stayed one night and it was lovely. The road there was horrendous but it was worth it for the isolation it created. Very small and minimal in set up but worth the trek. Not we’d stay too long there again due to the isolation but it was perfect for our overall holiday in Fiji.

Recently stayed for two weeks The resort feels like it was built 20 years ago and nothing had been done since. It’s undeniably in a beautiful surrounding with a small village next door but definitely out of town. Great for a pool side only holiday but food could do with some variety Still enjoyed our time away felt very peaceful

Stunning and with Amazing Staff!
Very private and peaceful! Talica and the staff were so helpful and friendly. You could not have a more welcoming and hospitable staff at a resort like this. I loved how private and quiet the beach is and it is so beautiful! Yes the decking around the pool may need some work done but the pool is still great. The food was lovely as well. I booked in a massage by Mary at the nearby village. She has a little beach bure at the village for it and I felt so relaxed afterwards. Just a caution for those wanting to book here, if you're taking a vehicle, you may need a car/ute that doesn't ride so low. The road can be a bit rough.

could be better
On the plus side this is a great location and the place is very clean, plus food was good. The staff were friendly but could have been more attentive, and too much loud music spoiled the atmosphere ( this was more for the staff than the customers). The resort needs some maintenance, particularly the deck around the pool which is a safety risk it is so rotten. We wouldn’t bother going back.

Service and staff were excellent, great quiet resort away from the large hotels. Food was top class, however some parts of the resort are looking tired. eg: Pool decking, path lighting , and the dirt road in ( would be a challenge in the rain.)

This was the 3rd time that we had stayed at the Wellesley. It is the perfect place to just sit, relax and unwind and start our holiday off. It is a hidden paradise, with a tropical atmosphere. It is a bit out of the way from the hustle and bustle, but if you are just after some peace and quiet, this is the place to go. We last visited the Wellesley about 4 years ago and on our last visit it needed a lot of TLC and repairs and therefore we had decided not to return. When looking on the internet, we saw a lot of improvements had been made and some rooms even had their own plunge pools, so we decided to give it a go once again. We were not disappointed and learnt that it now has new management. The food was beautiful and the staff very helpful and friendly. Congratulations to all involved for improving this little piece of paradise in Fiji.

Absolutely loved it. A peaceful and tranquil adults only resort. Not too much to do unless you go on day trips which can be costly but a great experience. Walks along the beach watching the sunset and a swim in the pool is all you need. Meet with the locals from the village and for a sml fee they will teach you net fishing and take you snorkeling along the reef edge. Also if your lucky you will be invited for dinner in the village which was an amazing meal. Definitely take snacks and duty free alcohol as it is a little pricey. Staff are amazing and you feel like family from the moment you arrive. A definite must. The location is very isolated but that's why you go there.

Excellent Staff. Friendly, helpful, and very hard working. Made me feel at home. Amenities are somewhat lacking. There were 3 kayaks ( in poor shape ) with only 1 paddle, and sections of the beachfront porch were closed off as they were falling apart. The food in the restaurant is good, but menu is limited and somewhat pricey. There is a village next to the resort that offers various activities, massages, and well made Fijian handicrafts.

This resort is very quiet with only 16 rooms and not next to any other establishments. It’s a 2 hour drive from the airport - I suggest sticking near Port Denaurau to get the most of your holiday and if you like a bit more of a social scene. The resort does offer free airport pick-ups, but they were 45min late which made us nervous. The driver was very nice though and the car was comfortable. Rooms are large and comfortable with A/C and loved the outdoor shower. Wi-go doesn’t reach the rooms, but is good in the common areas. Food was amazing every single meal. Kayaks are a bit sketchy... pool is a bit dated. Recommend going on the hill walk through the village. Instead of paying $75 pp for return transport to airport, consider taking the express bus (nice charter bus) from the main road ($10 one way) - hotel will organize drop-off for you (3min drive)
