Best Quiet Escape in Fiji! Just got back from an amazing stay at Wellesley Resort Fiji, and wow—it did NOT disappoint! My best friend and I were looking for a peaceful getaway, and this place was perfect. The hospitality was next-level—the staff were so warm and welcoming, always making sure we were comfortable. One of the best things about this resort? It’s an adults-only retreat, so it’s extra quiet and peaceful—no crowds, no noise, just pure relaxation. If you’re looking for a place to truly unwind, this is it. Highly recommend for anyone wanting a secluded, chill, and beautiful getaway in Fiji!

It was a little bit of paradise. Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful in every way. Food was wonderful. We tried everything on the menu and everything was great. Quiet and relaxing and the location was beautiful. The pool was a good size for swimming. People came from neighboring resort many times because the food was so good and the staff was so hospitable. No TV which we were fine with but may bother others. DVD’S were available if wanted. A pair of reef shoes would be a good idea to bring.

The WiFi in the room wasn’t very reliable. Few steps down to the beach needed some attention and a handrail would definitely help.

Wellesley Resort is one of the most beautiful places we have stayed in. Quiet, secluded, with beautiful grounds and gardens; it has a picturesque resort pool overlooking the white sandy beach and coral reef and a beachfront deck to relax on. Our villa was spacious, comfortable and spotlessly clean. We had a private plunge pool which was amazing. The staff are incredible, delivering amazing service. Special thanks to them all, especially Riz, the manager and Raj, the chef. Nothing was too much for Riz, he made sure our every needs were met and went above and beyond. Raj delivered amazing, freshly cooked meals every time. The view from the dining room/deck is sensational and fresh flowers decorated our table with every meal. Sabin took us fishing in the reef and we brought back 5 snapper which were cooked for our lunch. It is a 10 minute walk along the beach to the next resort, you will meet local villagers on the way as you pass their beachfront village. The resort is off the main road and secluded but that’s what makes it special. We had a hire car which made getting to the resort and out and about much easier. The dirt road from the main sealed road is easy to drive. We hope to return to one day to experience another stay in paradise

The Wellesley is a slice of heaven/nirvana/paradise on earth. It is serene, the gardens are stunning with a stream flowing through the centre of the resort. The accomodation is exactly as shown on website, each room beautifully furnished and absolutely IMMACULATELY clean. At this price point it’s truly exceptional. The current menu is limited, however the food is excellent homemade everything fresh from scratch daily… and the inclusive breakfast is ridiculously good, it would be sensational in any trendy Melbourne eatery. But the very very best thing is without question the staff led by the resort manager Rizwan who is the most amazing host we have ever experienced… his kind thoughtful attention to every need and those “little” touches that make things so memorable for guests like his daily homemade tropical oats, juices, cake. His warm welcome at the front is like coming home. He leads an amazing, hardworking warm and beautiful team… from Dee to Raj and every single one who bent over backwards to make us feel like old friends.

Leaving

The moment we arrived, we felt a warm Bula welcome and were put at ease immediately to feel at home! The vibe was awesome and this continued throughout our stay. We had lovely welcoming drinks. It is a relaxing atmosphere and all the facilities aid this. Reece is an excellent manager who goes out of his way to chat, cook and arrange an activity every day for his guests from walks to fishing or a massage in the local village where he walks you over. Reece takes great pride in the food treats he makes during your visit and his cooking is amazing! Dee is an absolute gem as well! She is so warm and welcoming every time she sees you and ensures you are comfortable with anything you need at all times. She is very observant as well and will bring you cold water when you get back from the beach, walks or lying by the pool. Dee loves ensuring the facilities are always covered with fresh flowers from the land and makes the resort beautiful. Saheel is such an amazing addition to this small team, he is a jack of all trades and takes the time to chat and tell you about the area, local fauna and flora as well as ask you about yourself. The locals play touch rugby on the beach in the evening and invited my husband more than once to join them. This was an absolute highlight! They were awesome and so kind. Mary in the village does a must do massage for fjd $50! This entire team is so welcoming and encompassing the true Bula spirit! We will be back for sure to enjoy the quiet retreat in the forest, pool and beach. A note that you must bring your own alcohol. There is a fridge in your room to keep this cold.

Would have liked more breakfast options. These were delicious and well prepared but the same everyday. The resort needs new and more kayaks to enjoy the water more.

The place, surrounds, pool and beach are excellent. - it is in a pretty valley leading to an excellent each. The food is exceptional. A wisely small menu, properly cooked with good ingredients, with some specials. Good friendly staff, - a mention to the manager, who seems to hold the place together single handed at times.. We also appreciated that the resort is adults only.

While not really an issue for me, is that the resort is alcohol free, and while Wifi is available in the common area, it does not stretch to the room, not is there any TV available at all. So - load up the lapttop with movies, - if that's you thing.

Once we got accustomed to the isolation, we really enjoyed being here. Very serene with lovely big rooms. The TV is a smart t.v so you can sign in to your Netflix etc and there is a lovely supply of boardgames, books and DVDs in the lobby/ restaurant. The gardens are magnificent and lush, with only 2 guys tending to them they do a remarkable job!!

The resort doesn't serve alcohol and so you need to bring your own, but you can take it anywhere on the property and they'll give you ice. Sadly we weren't a fan of the food, so that meant long drives and preparations for future meals.

The gardens were beautiful and the staff went out of their way to truly make it special. Riz created a beautiful welcome. We arrived late, however, Riz went and made us an amazing eggplant dip and wedges. Truly beautifully presented and tasted amazing. Dee was lovely and served us our meals with a smile and great sense of warmth. Big shout out to Sabir, who took us on beautiful walks and showed us the local area and the plants that could be used for local medicine. Thank you for a wonderful visit. 10/10

i realy loved the stay at wellesley resort. a lot of nature and a quiet place to come down! the breakfast was fabulous and more then enough. every day fresh fruits, a lot from the garden. the pool area and the view at breakfast is stunning!! i also did my very first fishing experience with the stuff there. it was amazing and straight after i got my catched fish served with curry :D thanks a lot to all the stuff at wellesley resort especially to riz!!

Amazing place, peaceful and relaxing, surrounded by beautiful nature. Loved the main pool. Food was very nice and reasonably priced. Loved that wifi was not available in the rooms, forced us to really unwind (you can access it at the restaurant). All staff were great, Dee, Sabi, and the manager Riz always there to help with anything.
