We spent a week in Niue at Matavai Resort and it was amazing, the rooms were clean, spacious and comfortable. Housekeeping does an amazing job and the only complaint I had was that a microwave would be helpful. We knew it wasn't self catering when we went there but having one in the room have made it so much easier... More

Great location with some fantastic views. The rooms were spick and span every day and the front desk ladies were willing to help. Only downside (and a major downside) was the restaurant. Every time we ordered something our bill was always incorrect. Drinks and food being charged that never should have been and staff were not very accommodating. The food... More

I made myself known to the Matavai staff at the airport. They had no record of me which appeared to be the fault of the company I had booked through. They still made me feel welcome and it turned out to be a bonus as I was upgraded to a sea-front room. These rooms are great. Probably the best room... More

The Matavai Resort is in a lovely location and if you can get an ocean view room i'd recommend it. The rooms were beautiful and clean, showers and beds amazing. Grounds are well looked after. The reception staff were helpful when needed. The only downside is the restaurant staff, i'm not sure if its lack of training but the meals... More

I found the resort great as a base for my busy time in Niue. It has everything you need if you don't feel like heading out. The rooms are great, staff lovely, restaurant, pool, bar and top view! I'm looking forward to another visit.

Lovely resort, absolutely amazing views from the deck, especially during sunset. Found restaurant a little expensive, however the food was always very good. Very convenient arrangement they've got on with Alofi Rentals to pick up/drop off cars right at the resort. The pool is nice and refreshing, it was never really crowded so it was always a nice place to... More

Warm welcome, nice room garden view but can see the sea cheaper than new sea view rooms which looked a bit in the shade. Breakfast ok but same everyday bar beans/ spaghetti switch. Food expensive on island( only 1 shop) so breakfast in deal worth it. Evening meals very nice. Bar prices bit raised for beer and cocktails but wine... More

Had a week here in April 2013. Thought it a very good to excellent resort and excellent room with perfect air conditioning to allow comfort and good sleep in hot and humid Niue (in fact, the cool rooms were glorious). Tidy rooms with good service and cleaning daily. Restaurant was well utilised although limited menu felt repetitive after a few... More

Nice and helpful staff, hotel is beautifully located overseeing the reef. Unfortunately we did not see the whales, but saw heaps of dolphins. Great food. Niue is a nice small islands with several great little secrets to discover. Fantastic to do in a week. Snorkeling is an amazing experience in Niue. The new rooms are modern and nice.

Just the sound of the ocean breaking on the reef was what we could hear at night, a romantic place where you plan your activity level, do lots everyday or nothing, the choice is yours. We booked for 7 days and that was just not long enough! If you can handle the humidity (only takes a day or two to... More
