The Volivoli Team | Volivoli Beach Resort

Being a family-run business means we’re approachable, and on-site at all times if our guests need anything—from a romantic dinner for two by the sea, or a special dietary concern. At Volivoli we’ve mastered the art of slow living, and we can’t wait to revel in it with you.

Let us introduce some of the friendly faces you’ll see at Volivoli Beach Resort

Our Team

We prefer to refer to our team as extended family here at Volivoli, Most of our team have been with us from the beginning

Many people ask us what makes Fiji different from other South Pacific nations? the answer is simple and rolls of the tongue quickly…”The People” there has not been a truer word said than “The Fijian’s are the friendliest people IN THE WORLD”!!

Its true and is also the case here at Volivoli. Nothing would be possible without our “Extended Family” and we thank them everyday for making Volivoli what it is through their hard work and friendly faces.

Its not uncommon to hear your name followed by a big BULA with an even bigger BULA smile!

Geraldine Vakaloloma, aka G

Our Resort Manager / Events Coordinator

G joined the family in 2012, always smiling and joking she quickly became a favourite amongst the guests.

Originally from Sigatoka this Nadroga girl moved back to Nananu I Ra Island to take care of her grandmother and has settled into the area well.

G can do it all from lifting kegs, arranging flowers, managing reservations and generally offering amazing personal service, As resort manager she is not locked away in the office, so please do stop her for a chat when you see her about the resort!
