Fatboys Resort

Do not listen to Bernice S or anyone else that says the food is bad, she sounds like a sad woman who has never known joy. I have had an eating disorder my whole life and I am a vegetarian and there was always more than 2 options for me. Anyone that gives Fatboys a bad review for their food is too pretentious to be going there in the first place. We had the best time accompanied by the sweetest staff who WERE NOT inattentive. They are much better than I am, as if I had to cater to the likes of half of the people doing these reviews, I would just throw them off the deck. The staff are beyond lovely and will go above and beyond to cater to any needs. Seriously do not listen to the bad reviews, those people will never be happy no matter what service they receive.

Loved Fatboys resort. Lovely people and excellent diving. Great seafood (lobster and Spanish mackerel especially). Lovely island trips as well. One suggestion would be to start to pick up the plastics that wash ashore so as these islands stay beautiful

We arrived on our yacht so we cannot comment on the accommodation. We had been told that the restaurant was welcoming of yachties and nthat the food was good and reasonably priced - what nonsense! Prices were on the upper end of the scale similar to what a top end restaurant would cost in Australia or New Zealand. The service was poor and the food was horrible with a very limited menu. This is one restaurant that will not be seeing us again

An absolute dream, we couldn't really believe our eyes when we arrived. It might be a little hard to get to since it requires a boat to/from Gizo town, but it's totally worth it. The surroundings are beautiful. Snorkelling, kayaking gear all are provided free and available to use anytime. Staff are really friendly and helpful, and food was also great. The chef took requests if we had any cravings (though maybe they don't do this if it's busy). There's also a pool table for use, and a small library. The standard bungalows are a little basic but they do the job. Only the overwater bungalow has air con but the others have fans. There's a main restaurant area that is off a long jetty and this is the only area with wifi. Rooms have no wifi, but have phone reception everywhere so you can use your roaming/local sim. They also put a mosquito coil in your room at night if you would like. Just some suggestions for improvement: Laundry took a long time (1.5 days) and one piece came back wet, one piece smelled bad. It would be great to have wifi in the rooms to make private conversations back home when travelling. Replace mosquito nets with holes. Great if you could also have more flexible policies for emergencies. I stayed 2 nights out of 4 as I had to go home early for a family medical emergency and I was only offered a credit for the remaining days (which I will likely have to transfer to someone else) even though our whole party stayed 8 nights in total.

Quite simply the friendliest resort I’ve ever been to. The original Rancho Relaxo. I had the whole place to myself, the staff were fantastic, they weren’t pushy, there was no pressure to do anything, the bar and restaurant area was brilliant. Drinks were plentiful and cold, food was out of this world. I’m coming back! Thoroughly recommend this place for a relaxing getaway.
