Hello all, I'm trying to decide between Matava and Mai Dive for a 1 week Kadavu trip at the beginning of October. They seem to be roughly equal in terms of cost. I will be going with my girlfriend, who is a non-diver but will be snorkeling. We are in our early 30's, enjoy being active, and would definitely appreciate a quiet place with no kids running around.
That being said, which of these 2 resorts is preferable? Is the dive team and rental equipment better at one as opposed to the other? Also, I know that Mai Dive is on Ono island and Matava is right in front of the Astrolabe reef. Is there any advantage to being on the bigger Kadavu island instead of the smaller Ono island?
For those that have been, I noticed that Matava doesn't have power in the bures after 5pm whereas Mai Dive has power in the rooms 24/7. Was the lack of power an issue at Matava? ie, were you bored out of your mind after dinner?
Any feedback is much appreciated. Thanks so much!
