Comments 3 of us spent 10 days at the resort diving 9 of those days We stayed in the ocean front villa which was very clean and spacious though the common space was sparsely furnished Food was very good, though I would choose the 1/2 board option next visit . 3 multiple course meals a day was Too Much! It was a bit annoying that coffee, tea and soft drinks were extra charges at lunch and dinner. Also there is a hefty Wifi charge. Be sure to read the fine print!

Dives were fun. Very colorful soft corals. We did note the lack of large fish and sharks compared to our past visits, the last being in 2017 . Divemasters were friendly and very helpful particularly in the rough seas we had the first few days. There were some minor issues with rental gear which we had reserved months in advance. Regulators and BCDs were switched among resort guests every day . My husband had to dive with a small BCD one day that he didnt notice till he got in the water .

Overall we had a great trip and would return to Volivoli
