Amazing. Beautiful friendly staff. 100%

We recommend Castaway for a relaxing holiday. Nothing is too much trouble for the amazing staff. Castaway provides activities for those who want to participate and quiet time for those who don't. The facilities are second to none. Sota tale

Vinaka vakalevu Castaway Island Resort!

Vinaka again to the wonderful staff at Castaway Island.
We went as a family of 4 with two kids under 12 and the staff were so friendly and accommodating to us!
We've stayed at other islands in Fiji previously and we found Castaway was one of the better family resorts and has something for everyone!
The resort is spacious, the dining & food is delicious, the views are stunning,
the pools were big to have distance between other guests, the beach and water sport activities were fun.
It was sad to leave paradise! We gave it a 10/10 experience and we will definitely be back!
Vinaka!

What an amazing place!!

First time at Castaway Island and first family holiday with our 19 month old. We could not have picked a better place!! Not only was the resort beautiful, the staff were absolutely amazing. They continuously took care of us and loved our son which was so nice to see. Isaac especially looked after us and made our experience even better. I can see why people constantly return to this place. It's amazing, you need to book it asap! We will definitely be returning :)

Amazing staff that made you feel very welcome

The staff at Castaway were completely amazing and could not do enough for us. They were friendly and remembered everyone's name, which was amazing with so many people at the resort.
The cultural night was fantastic and gave everyone an insite in to the Fiji history and the history of Castaway. The dancers were amazing!
We are already planning our next visit to this amazing resort.
