The food, the site, the staff

What i did not like were the bugs and mosquitos buzzing about in the open -aired bathroom, but bug sprays were provided and it was not much of a bother after.

The entire atmosphere of the resort was exceptional, the food was amazing and fresh, the entire staff made us feel like we were part of their family. There were so many things to do each day and it just felt like a second home

As others have commented, the staff in the restaurant were outrageously unfriendly. We were travelling with a toddler, which I understand can be annoying for staff - but it was at times comical how unhelpful they were. Multiple times we would ask someone a question, who would then go and ask someone else, who would then go and ask someone else - and then nothing would happen and we would have to find someone else to ask. I'm not sure if the staff are not paid enough, or if they work too much, or if they hate tourists, or hospitality - but something was definitely not right. All the staff (in the restaurant) seemed deeply unhappy. Maybe dealing with backpackers does it? We were really shocked - it might be acceptable in a small cafe in Nadi - but when visitors are coming such a long way (and paying quite a bit too!), the least we would expect is eye contact when placing an order rather than 3 different people walking up to the table asking "room number?" One night the dinner was a "tasting menu" style - but it definitely felt more like a way for the restaurant to get rid of excess food that had not been ordered at other times. The food that night was not very good all - some dishes were inedible.

The reef right off the beach at Octopus is simply incredible. We quickly realised the reef was why people came to the resort. I saw a large shark while snorkeling! The view from the restaurant/bar is absolutely incredible. The people working at the activities desk were great. Activities run at night were fun and was a great way to meet others staying in the resort. The kids club was quite small - but our toddler (2.5 years old) seemed to enjoy it. They did some activities like collecting crabs, drawing, watching some TV - he seemed to have fun and was happy to go back the next day. The resort had a nurse who was very nice and helpful!

Wish we could have had more options for walks/runs each day rather than be limited to the ‘activity’ days which didn’t coincide with my days. Some people staying had a loud party in the bungalow next door after the bar closed, didn’t seem to be any security to quiet them down so barely any sleep for me one night.

Lots of things to do, great food, great staff and really good dive operation

What a paradise! We absolutely loved our stay at Octopus Resort—it’s truly an incredible place. The staff were exceptionally friendly, making us feel so welcome throughout our visit. The resort offers a variety of activities, both free and paid, and I highly recommend the snorkelling with fish feeding—it was an unforgettable experience! The food was outstanding, with plenty of delicious options to choose from every day. On our return to Nadi, we booked the resort transfer, which was incredibly convenient as they dropped us off directly at the airport. Everything about our stay exceeded expectations. I highly recommend Octopus Resort to anyone looking for a perfect getaway!

We stayed in the bungalow and used the shared bathroom. Facilities were just okay.

The beach and coral reef right off the shore were really beautiful. Staff were super friendly! Food was good but nothing to rave about.

All the people who work at octopus are wonderful. I loved the relaxed atmosphere. The luxury of a resort holiday without the stuck up ambiance. Loads to do if you want to, but you can also just chill.

Nothing bad to say.

Everything was amazing, the food was great. Beach was right on our doorstep. Staff were super friendly and welcoming. Kids club was great and the reef was superb just out in front of the resort. Would happily come back in a heartbeat.

At low tide the swimming was limited

Awesome beach , secluded quiet spot Lovely outdoor shower, decent room size, staff super attentive and friendly. We had an infant with us and we used baby sitting each night which meant we could enjoy our dinner. Food was very good considering you are out on a remote island! Definitely recommend if you are after a relaxing holiday with a nice beach.

Very minor things but sharing for feedback: BGL 1 - the wooden slates/ windows, maybe 4 of them were needing to be fixed, they were not holding in place to close entirely (minor). Some of the activities, would be ideal to get some more education/ talking from the locals to know more about the reef, place, etc. we still had a great time but some feedback for future improvement. Some activities we felt we were just taken there but left to our own devices. A bit more guidance / tour / structure would be great.

The location, meeting the beautiful local staff. Relaxing location. The dinners! Dinner menu / quality was fabulous! Thank you for the lovely staff who work hard.

The staff often seemed uninterested in us and didn’t provide the necessary information. Particularly the guides who didn’t explain a thing as well as some staff at the dive shop. The service staff wasn’t very professional and either way to attentive in the way that we didn’t have a second to look at the menu before they wanted to take our order or that we were just ignored. Two dinners in a row we were not asked if we wanted something for drinks etc. That killed the atmosphere a bit.. The vegetarian options were limited, and the menu to choose from is the same for two consecutive days.

Location as well as the outside shower of our very comfortable Bure (garden deluxe)

We really enjoyed everything about it aside from not enough lounge chairs on the beach.

Amazing beach, amazing snorkeling, amazing food. Our bungalow was OK, and the shared bathroom wasn't always clean but sufficient. There was a teeny waste basket that was always overflowing. Staff were helpful. Loved the snorkeling trip to Shark Point and the walk to the village.
