Hi Karen,Sorry for the lengthy delay in responding. I’ve been swamped at work since our return. Thanks for checking in on us. The trip was fantastic! We loved Namale. We had a couple of days of rain, but there was lots to do in spite of it. The best thing was the people. Everyone was so nice and all of the staff knew us by first name. A very unique experience. The spa was fantastic, the food was great and we always had something to do. Tony Robbins was there and he and Tom Selleck had breakfast at the table right next to us! That was neat. Tokoriki turned out to be a nice complement. The beach was fantastic. We did some great snorkeling and kayaking there. The only weird thing was that half the guests were from Italy and some had there kids with them. It was fine, but we were curious why so many Italians chose that particular resort. Visiting Castaway Island was cool too. The bures at both resorts exceeded our expectations. We only had a few mishaps. When we arrived in Nadi and were awaiting our connection, we had a torrential downpour that delayed us for 2 1/2 hours. Maree, the rep from Namale kept us company and was great about showing us where to go and what to do upon our arrival. It worked out ok and we actually flew in on a tiny plane with Mark & Danielle, the managers at Namale. The second thing was a terrible storm on the day of our departure from Tokoriki. We had 6 foot waves the whole boatride back to Nadi, but we were prepared with Bonine so we made it through. . Obviously, no one can control the weather, but we were surprised with it being the dry season and all. Thanks so much for all of your help and suggestions. We’re already thinking about going back in a couple of years for our anniversary! We would definitely recommend you to prospective travelers and would love to call upon you for our future South Pacific travel needs. Thanks again,
