michelle6729 14:31 UTC 16 Aug 2008 | I agree with h2ooh. The Octopus resort is great. No Island nightlife other than at the resort, but all of the outer islands are like this. There is very little infrastructure as the islands are small. Nadi is where you want to go for that, but there are no nice beaches or snorkeling. The Octopus has an amazing beach, the snorkeling is the best I've experienced and the food was great. We got a beachfront bure for a week, it was cozy and even had it's own palapa on the beach. There are very few backpackers as well. You will not be disapointed!!! | 2
