I enjoyed my stay at Matavai Resort, primarily due to the stunning views and spacious accommodations. While the hospitality from some staff was welcoming, it was inconsistent, leading to some less-than-ideal dining experiences. The noise from nearby roosters can be bothersome, but overall the atmosphere was low-key and relaxing, making it a great getaway.

Our stay at the Scenic Matavai Resort in Niue was a wonderful experience, highlighted by the stunning views and exceptional service from the staff. The location on the cliff offered spectacular scenery, making our time by the pool truly special. However, we did encounter some issues with the cleanliness of the buffet area during breakfast, and there were moments when the dining options could have been better managed. Still, the excellent hospitality and cozy rooms made it a memorable stay overall.

I had a pleasant stay at Scenic Matavai Resort, which is set in a stunning location with breathtaking sea views. The rooms were nice, but the early crowing of the roosters disrupted my sleep. While the staff was mostly helpful, a bit more warmth would go a long way in enhancing the overall experience. The dining was decent, although I found some food items a bit pricey, and the breakfast options could use a little variety. Overall, the resort has potential for an even better experience if some issues are addressed.
