I think there are few places left on earth that would qualify as a true island paradise, but this is one of them. To get here, you have to take a sea plane from one of the main islands, and the owner and his wife will greet you at the dock as you pull up. There are no more than... More

We spent 10 days here for xmas 2011. We chose this resort, because I had stayed at the Moodys' previous resort, in Panama, back in 1976. Resort: Serene, quiet, and feels like you have the whole island to yourself. Great scuba diving, snorkeling, hiking, bird (and bat) watching. We built each day around the communal meals, and the morning and... More

We spent a week at Moody's Resort and loved this very special place. On just 110 acres, Namena offers the perfect combination of tropical forest with hiking trails, sandy beaches, cliffs covered with flowering bushes, and bird sanctuary. The surrounding lagoon and barrier reef boast a wonderful variety of hard and soft corals, lots of interesting dive sites patrolled by... More

We just left Moody's Namena Island Resort today, and though we are excited to continue our adventures through Fiji it was bittersweet to leave. The experience was hard to describe, at once authentic and also a throwback to a different type of vacation. Tom Moody has spent years creating an ecologically correct resort before it was fashionable. He created, out... More

We had an absolutely fantastic vacation here May 23 - June 4, 2011. The corals, fish, staff, and island experience are phenomenal! We highly recommend it. If you'd like to see our amateur video from the experience, you can click on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vp7HHlXNdzQ. We found out about this in the book "1000 Places to See before You Die." It's the best... More

Namena is an absolute gem. We stayed for 15 nights, half of which we had the entire island and all the staff to ourselves (due to seasonal wet season bookings - ha! fooled them! ). As we are snorkellers we were thrilled to access both the walk-in reefs around the island as well as the extremely short boat trips out... More

If You want to get a pleasure from wildlife it's the exact place to be. The real treasure of the resort is the staff. When You are leaving the hotel You feel like You are leaving your home. The Fijian nature is surrounding You all around. The best place for diving and snorkeling (mostly for corals). But each traveler will... More

Nesting red footed boobies, fairy terns, fruitbats, flowering frangipani, the sheer majesty of the sea, the horizontal rain squall, the "rawness" of the environment, the kaleidoscopic reef, the gorgeous diving, the wonderful people, the caring staff, the vision of Tom Moody, simplicity, to supervise our magnificent mother earth in her finest glory.

For eight stunning days over July and August on 2010, my wife and I enjoyed this hidden gem of a "resort" off the coast of Vanua Levu, Fiji. Now, please be forewarned that if you're looking for bars, nightlife, clubs, chic, plush rooms, or constant company, Moody's probably isn't for you. However, if you're content with an experience unlike anything... More

This is truley a unique and very special place to visit. You can not help but relax and enjoy nature at its best. Tom and staff make you feel right at home and service was better then 5 stars. The 'family' atmosphere is heightened by the communal dining, which offers a chance for everyone to catch up and share their... More
