Fabulous location, with great beaches and access to some really terrific dive sites within 20 minutes or less. Dive boat is very new, very fast and stable, and the Malolo Barrier Reef nearby offers a ton of really great dive locations, especially for beginner/intermediate divers, as the viz is excellent, lots to see not too deep, and virtually no surface... more

We stayed at Castaway for 12 days in January 2010 and we loved it. We travelled to the Island by the launch. We upgraded to the Captains Lounge for about an extra $10 per person. It’s air conditioned and drinks & snacks are free. It’s definitely worth the extra $10. Here is a rundown on what we thought about the... more

Ok, I thought it was just our misfortune that our son got very, very ill while we were staying at Castaway Island in November. After reading at several other reviews indicating others with the same unfortunate experience I realize that Castaway has some serious food handling problems. The setting of Castaway is spectacular . Every time I would think about... more

Recently came back from a trip to Castaway Island, Fiji. Staff and facilities were wonderful. although not the most luxurious resort in Fiji, the staff made you feel very welcome. Pool could do with a bit of an upsize, and food was good but not spectacular. Staff were 11/10, which made the stay memorable. The little ones also enoyed their... more

Excellent for families with young children (great kids club), although pricey when one adds the meal plans (100 FJD/day/adult) and the transport by boat. Also recommended to extend the opening hours of the activity centre. Activities now close at 16h30, while the sun settles at 20h ... Resort has not taken into account the "summer time" in Fiji (one hour... more

Very sad that I have the opinion that I do! We've travelled extensively and read great things about Castaway. In reality- it's really not that great! We've been to Fiji before so know the drill of Fiji time etc We also opted to catch a private speed boat transfer to save us spending any more time on that dreadful Denaru...So... more

After a 13 day tour of Australia this was the perfect place to chill out! No TV, phones or clocks. Really comfortable Bures, friendly, helpful staff and wonderful water sports. I had read some reviews aobut going to Castaway first then the Outrigger on the coral coast of the main Island...great suggestion. the outrigger is a real resort that could... more

My family stayed at Castaway Island for 5 nights is December last year and had the best holiday we could have asked for. Mind you we got hit on day 3 by Cyclone Mick. The staff during the lead up to the cyclone were amazing. They were constantly giving everyone updates and on went around boarding up everyones windows and... more
