Musket Cove was an absolute delight to stay at. It was always clean, the food was beautiful and the employees were welcoming and accommodating. Our room had everything we needed for a baby and the facilities were great to keep our family entertained. Musket Cove is a bit smaller than Plantation but this made it feel cosy and had more of a community vibe without sacrificing on the quality of the experience. Highly recommend this Resort and would definitely stay again!

We had to take the meal plan with no choice We’re vegetarian and there was no options for us The buffet breakfast was last night’s reheated food and it was awful Lunch choices for us we’re a lettuce with a tiny tomato Dinner was better but definitely not 4 star The pool ladies toilet was disgusting and the seat should have been destroyed because it was beyond filthy The beachfront Bure we had was the only redeeming factor but smelled badly

Musket Cove was a short ferry ride to beautiful Malolo Lailai island. The staff was amazing starting with a warm musical welcome. Grace was our host that checked us in and showed us around the resort. We arrived early, so she made sure we had a shady cabana by the pool which included lunch. We enjoyed the food at both restaurants and the buffet had a variety of food every evening. The bay in front of the resort was great for paddle boarding, kayaking, hobby cats, snorkeling and ocean walks at low tide. Don’t forget to book a massage on the pier. The beach front bure we stayed in was so nice with open air feeling with screens and louver. If you wanted the air conditioning, you closed up louvers and enjoyed the cool air conditioning. It had a large bathroom and sitting area with a kitchenette supplied with bottle water and filtered water for coffee or tea. They also have a small convenient store for things you may have forgotten or want to cook in your unit. My on recommendation would be to have a clothesline or drying rack in the bathroom or behind the bure for your wet items. When your trip is over, the staff sings as you depart on the ferry. Would highly recommend this casual, friendly, well maintained and comfortable resort.

The resort compound is beautiful and the houses located at the lagoon are beautiful. However, we had serious problems with mosquitos. Also, the amenities were somewhat run down, the food rather simple and the staff while friendly didn't pay much attention to the guests.

More kids than we thought on this side in the pool, which was a surprise because of plantation island being next door and more family friendly. There was no rain water tap to fill your water bottle which is a waste to use plastic bottles once. Jonah who organizes the surf trips was not very friendly or helpful Other than that, the resort is really nice and quiet in the rooms, they are very accommodating on the pick up and transfer to Nadi and it was seamless.

Not great if you are gluten intolerant
I emailed twice before our trip to confirm they could cater for me being a celiac and Pescatarian, they assured me they could on both occasions. I had no option for cereal the entire stay, they occasionally had gf bread and occasionally had gf pizza bases available. There was really very little for me to eat and the options, well let’s not call them options because that would give the impression I had choices, which I didn’t really. We also had a late check out of 11.30, I think purely as I’d complained about the food situation that this was to Placate me somewhat. Our last day with the 11.30 late check out our only day of sun so we headed to the pool, at just before 11 we headed back to the room to get ready for our boat transfer only to discover housekeeping remaking the room and had removed all the towels etc so we couldn’t take showers or in fact even get changed. I did tell them we had a late check out to which they said they didn’t know about, so we ended up doing our boat transfer and arrive at our new hotel in our bathing suits, not the most comfortable of days. The service was hit and miss, Traders was the best, they at least tried to accommodate my food allergies, although once came rushing out after I had started eating my meal to whisk it away saying it wasn’t gf after all and then replacing it (after the rest of my party had finished their meals) with something I hadn’t ordered and was in fact so overcooked it was Inedible, but they tried.
