I jumped in for 7 nights over christmas...in hindsight, I probably won't use this mainly b/c I won't be able to find flights that time of year on miles...but I'll worry about that when I get confirmation that it's good. using miles to fiji is always a chore. Hopefully the stars align.
NM...evidently the site is buggy, i thought i booked for dec, but it changed my search to June...booked a week I definitely can't go. cancelling now.

(I wonder how many other people are booked for June, unintentionally!)

when i was searching dates, the period over xmas was not the cheap rate, so i shifted to dec 9th to 16th...also, doing some random searches on agoda now, october and december, the site says: "Sorry, there are no available rooms at Wananavu Beach Resort that match your number of rooms and guests on your selected dates".
As someone had mentioned earlier, other OTAs had rates in the $130 USD range when I was searching about 1pm ET (the Expedia rate was also ~$130 USD once you clicked on their site):
however, when searching now:

Thanks OP, booked a week in December. I choose to pre-paid with price errors. I have had better luck with pre-paid. For example, this past January, I booked Milo Santa Barbara for couple nights. If it weren’t prepaid, I am sure they wouldn’t honour the $20/night at the front desk. Since I was pre-paid, Milo just released the key and off I went to the room.
But if it is regular price hotel booking, I’d never pre-paid.

Wow! Just watched the website video of the resort, and it looks pretty sweet. They hail it as one of the top 10 in Fiji and top 1% in the world. Could be hype, but still looks good enough that I hope it's honored.

Does it really surprise you?
Good news is that agoda is keeping silent...
