If you want a luxury, stay this is not it. However this is as close to authentic Fiji island living as you can find. All the staff are part of the same family and you become part of it. The snorkeling off the beach was really good, the beach beautiful and they offer daily free snorkel trips to show you the best spots. An amazing unique experience 100% recommended.

I loved every moment I spent there. Basic in terms of amenities, but sometimes that’s exactly what is needed to truly relax. The cold showers took some getting used to but then I realized how great I felt afterwards. Really, I wouldn’t change a thing.

This is more of a homestay which is good for backpackers, rather than a resort. The family who run the property are really nice and accommodating. The meals are basic and quite bland but you are encouraged to eat a lot, which would suit hungry backpackers. There was an overbooking on the night we arrived and we were put into the locals hut, rather than the beach hut that we had booked and paid for. This locals hut was not clean, did not have running water for most of the evening so we couldn’t flush the toilet or have water to brush out teeth etc, and was not at all similar to the photos of the hut that we had booked. After we complained, we were then told that we were in there due to the overbooking. It was upsetting and disappointing to have been put in that room and not told there was an overbooking etc. as we felt otherwise we would have be len in there for 3 nights. We got moved into the beach hut that we had booked the following night and we were given shark snorkeling for free, but no other discount for the bad experience.

it's a rustic resort, no a/c, and it was really hot. But it worked fine for us.

Friendly local run small scale resort.
Only four bures and a dormitory so it’s not full of different people, it’s very friendly and you often have the whole beach to yourself😊. We stayed five nights so had plenty of time to relax and also do the shark tour and hike. There is good snorkelling with coral and a variety of fish about 50m off the beach at high tide. The generator only runs 6pm to 6am so the bathroom which had no windows was a bit dark. Cold showers were fine. We enjoyed the beautiful environment and lovely local people. Thank you to Mary for helping us settle in and making our stay very enjoyable.

Amazing experience
I took my 11 and 13 yr old nieces to Naqalia for one night to experience the islands and we did not want to leave. We had come from the Sofitel in Denarau and while that is a lovely resort it didn’t feel like we were in Fiji, Naqalia changed that for us. Yes the accommodation is budget but it is clean and the welcoming is warm and makes you feel part of a family. They were so thoughtful and patient with the kids when we did the sunset hike and went snorkelling, we did not want to leave and are already planning our trip back, hopefully in a year. The girls can’t stop going on about the Fijian family they had so much fun with. Thank you so much to all of you, we can’t remember all of your names but we can’t wait to see you all again.
