Treasure Island Resort

Mamanuca Group


Opened in 1972, this is one of the Mamanucas' oldest resorts and a long-time family favourite (though the 120 weddings held annually in its sleek chapel point at another popular market). There's a fantastic kids club, plus a baby turtle sanctuary, mini-golf, a toddler pool and the Kidzspa. Adults dig the spa, tennis court and infinity pool. The on-site medical centre is a major plus.

Treasure's 68 refurbished, air-conditioned units are housed in witch-hatted bures; space varies, but all are well-appointed and comfortable and none are further than 30m from the water. Optional full/half meal packages are $150/115 for adults and $60/35 for kids (under fives eat free): the 5.30pm kids' buffet dinner is a sanity saver. Diving and more is possible with Tropical Water Sports.

Treasure is serviced by the Yasawa Flyer and South Sea Cruises’ catamarans; the resort also provides after-hours transfers for guests to/from Nadi Airport ($312) and Vuda Point Marina ($216).
