Octopus Resort Yasawa Islands

Retrospect Octopus Resort, Waya Island, Fiji

For the nice Octopus team who made my vacation so special: Thank you! The Octopus Resort would not be the same if it were not for its nice, committed, warm and supportive team. Unfortunately I only spent 4 days in Octopus because I wanted to stay at her affiliated Blue Lagoon as well.

While I was living at Octopus, I found that the place drew a lot of nice folks to see, so don't fret when you're traveling alone. Octopus has an astonishing price-performance ratio and if you go to other places, be warned: it's all going south!

I' d certainly also do the walk around the town ( "beautiful and inspirational place") and help the nice folk in the town ( "most of them work in the resort") and their family with a contribution to help them with their work. However, I can't say enough good things about Octopus and I' m hoping to be back soon!

Hopefully you will be happy that I could use it on Octopus;)

Snorkelling OD!!!!! - Re-eview of Octopus Resort, Waya Island, Fiji

It was a pleasant surprise to me that there was not only one vegetable choice, but two, the meals lasted two nights, but it is good not to have to have the same dish twice, and it was good vegetable cooking not just a thought. It has a schedule of evenings like film nights, trivia nights, etc., but we only saw the film nights, the trivia never happen.

Octopus Resort Yasawa

As the resort is quite relaxed, we find that most of our clients like to wear daily'beachwear' made of scarongs and beachwear for the ladies and T-shirts and swimsuits for the men. Octopus has an elaborate and varied mealplan. As soon as you enter the wonderful, kilometre-long, gold sandy beaches at Likuliku Bay, you are on `Fiji Time'.

The Octopus Resort is located on the west side of Waya lsland, so the beautiful beaches and the beautiful sunset from the resort. As Waya is a large isle, the inside of Waya can be quite precipitous in some places, but for those who take the trouble to hike up, the scenery is quite amazing. However, snorkeling on the shore right in front of the Octopus Resort is not too bad either.

It' s a resort that quickly gets to your heart; as they say, it has a really relaxing ambience with its sandy ground restaurants and pubs and it only lasts a few moments until the incoming visitors dive directly into the relaxing atmoshere. Excursions with manta rays from May to October are very frequent.

The dormitories are provided every day with bedding, bathing sheets and a bathrobe. Sleeping room visitors will have a glimpse of the resort's indoor and outdoor pools.
