Scenic Matavai Resort Niue

Service was the best . Staff couldn't be more helpful. Resort was great food ,plenty to do and had local niuans most nites showing shows on there lifestyle . Island was great if you into snorkeling fishing . Plenty of cafes really layed back relaxing holiday

Gorgeous resort with amazing views and friendly, helpful staff. The breakfast was superior and the meals delicious. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend to anyone wanting a relaxing experience. The mango slushy cocktail was divine. Plenty of room and not over crowded like a lot of resorts.

As well as the resort being beautifully upgraded in recent years, more humpback whales than I've ever seen in the 20 years of coming to Niue and just off the Matavai deck: the details were also uniquely en point. Unlike other 4-5 star resorts we've stayed at - we received plenty of bathroom towels! And no signing in for pool towels! Plus they have Vegemite on the breakfast buffet... Our stay was a delight from beginnning to end. We'll be back.

Being the only resort on the island of Niue, if you would like a comfortable hotel stay this is for you! The rooms were lovely and spacious with comfy beds and we had wonderful views from the Ocean view room, being able to watch whales and dolphins from the balcony was pretty special! The pools are a fantastic way to unwind and cool off, the food at the pool bar was great and a good variety of options for both drinks and food. You can take in the sunset from the many decks, whilst sipping on a coconut cocktail and in the right season (Aug-Sep) watch the whales swimming by and breaching.. There are daily activities hosted by the resort with locals giving you a great insight to Island life. They also host great entertainment evenings with local musicians and dance. It looses a star purely on the food at the restaurant but mostly because we are not really buffet people and are fairly spoilt with where we live on the food front. The staff though were truly wonderful and so welcoming. Easy getting from and to the airport and they can help you book excursions and rentals etc making your trip hassle free. Would highly recommend for anyone needing a relaxing break and if you don't want to go self-catering this is pretty much the only option!

Our second stay at the Matavai and a good relaxing place to stay. Cheerful staff, great outlook from room and with happy hour and light bites available at the pool bar, it's possible to have a very low cost holiday. Having toured the islands scenic treats previously, we simply wanted to relax and unwind, for this it was perfect. Whales swimming by made for an interesting pre-occupation.

The only resort in Niue with a great pool complex and restaurant and great views. Rooms are great but soundproofing between floors is not good. So as not to hear the movements and sounds of the people above you, try for an upstairs room if physically able.
