Overall Rating

Swiss Fiji Divers is a well run dive operation. On the negative side, they
advertize nitrox on their website and at their shop but didn't have it
available the entire week that we were there. Their native Fijian
divemasters were all excellent and made every effort to try to make each
dive memorable. I would recommend them and will dive with them again in any
future trip to Taveuni.

Maravu Plantation Resort is directly across the road from Swiss Fiji Divers
and even shares the same beach, but seems to be totally ignorant about the
needs of divers. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were served at fixed times but
the 5 divers out of our group of 6 had to be at the boat at the same time
breakfast appeared and returned from our 2 tank dive as lunch was ending.
The restaurant staff was unconcerned about our dilemma until we complained
to the resort manager. Finally, the meal schedule was altered and we were
able to eat AND dive. The staff was similarly indifferent to any of the
other needs of anyone in our group.

My wife and I have been to several different resorts in Fiji but, sadly,
Maravu Plantation Resort does not live up to the standards of their
competition. This is the first time that we've actually been anxious to get
on the plane and go home.
