Niue is a very unique island destination that remains truly unspoilt and
undiscovered. Its one of the world's largest raised coral atolls and a quarter
of Niue is virgin rainforests which can be explored easily by foot. Some of the
unique and unreal experiences include; swimming with whales & dolphins,
exploring the most breathtaking caves in the South Pacific with ease, gaze
upon breaching whales 80 metres from your breakfast table (between Jul
and Oct) and dive within spectacular underwater cathedrals teaming with
coloured fish. Niue's warm tropical water is also one of the world's clearest
and is rated amongst the best visibility in the world – frequently in excess
of 50 and even up to 70 metres.
This magnificent Matavai Resort is located on a cliff top, with a breathtaking
180 degree view of the blue Pacific and is only 10 minutes from all major
facilities and services on Niue. Twenty two cool studio rooms with private
facilities, some with a view of the ocean where the dolphins play and whales
frolic in the migration season. Two freshwater swimming pools, bar, restaurant
and boutique gift shop will make your stay at Matavai a pleasure.

Whether your interests are walking, cycling, caving, snorkelling, fishing or diving Niue will have something unique to offer you. It really is paradise for the adventurous and a must for keen divers, diving is in another league because of the water clarity and underwater landscape. It is because Niue is made of porous limestone that it has no lakes or streams, so all rainwater filters quickly through this rock into the sea and in doing so has carved out an exquisite & unique environment to explore- caverns, caves and cathedrals.
Like most unique places it’s a journey in itself to get there. You require a stop in Auckland in each direction and a min 7 night stay in Niue due to flight schedules. For those after your typical island getaway with long stretches of white sandy beaches Niue is not for you, only offering one small white sand beach with the majority of coast line raised 20-30 metres straight out of the sea, so it boasts intimate coves rather than the beach coastline typical of the islands.
