Paradise Taveuni Resort sits on the southern tip of Taveuni Island with direct lava flow access to Rainbow Reef, one of the most celebrated dive sites on earth. With a 4.7/5 rating built almost entirely on exceptional diving and staff, it draws serious divers from around the world — though non-divers and those who value their food highly may want to look elsewhere.

Bibi's Hideaway is a charming budget guesthouse in Matei on Taveuni Island — where host Paulina welcomes guests to quiet, private bures set in a lush tropical garden full of ripe passion fruit, papaya, bananas, and guava, just minutes from Matei Airport, local restaurants, and the dive shops that access the legendary Rainbow Reef.
