Get Away From It All

Nukubalavu (Long Beach) is a family estate and resort on the island of Ono. Primarily used as a family escape, it has had its fair share of visitors through word of mouth, hosted tour groups from neighboring businesses and resorts, and was recently made into a full service resort.  The estate is 47 acres of thick tropical jungle and rain forest that plummets down a steep mountain spotted with numerous outcrops of volcanic rock that form the backdrop to the terraced working gardens and manicured grounds where all of the facilities are located amongst the palm tree lined waterfront.

For over 20 years Josepha Nalewabau has been working and living off of Nukubalavu where his father used to live and work. And since 2007, the next generation of Nalewabau’s have decided to join Josefa in Fiji to build a resort on the family land, and in the process, lead a simpler, yet more adventurous lifestyle. Mai Dive Astrolabe Reef Resort is the result.

Our place is better described as a friendly guest house rather than your typical resort. We prefer the relaxed feel and simple lifestyle that compliments this remote, undeveloped part of Fiji.

It’s a place for people that don’t need to be entertained because they enjoy a simple uncluttered way of being.
