1 Food, Beverage and Entertainment What's on at Scenic Matavai Resort Niue

2 Slice of Paradise At Scenic Matavai Resort Niue guests can enjoy two very unique food and beverage offerings. The Pool Bar & Café and the Dolphin Restaurant & Bar are open 7 days a week and showcase the most stunning views of the surrounding bays and coastline. Our philosophy is to source produce from Niue Island through our local fishermen, village markets and the hydroponic farms. Sourcing locally requires us to be very resourceful and at times certain food items are out of stock but, a replacement option will always be available. The Resort hosts themed evenings ranging from live performances to our popular buffet nights. We highly recommend booking ahead, especially during high season (April November) and bookings are essential for our Buffet Nights (Thursday & Friday). Check our schedule to find out what is on each night. We hope you enjoy the spectacular sights and sunsets when dining with us at our restaurant and bar. For guests wanting to enjoy a private view, room service is available. Please note: Guests with any dietary restrictions need to inform Reception upon arrival to ensure our Kitchen team are aware and can accommodate you. Reservations are essential during the high season.

Guests can enjoy 180 degree views up and down the coastline of both Avatele and Tamakautoga Bays from our stunning expansive deck area.

During your time at the Resort take advantage of our prime views in front of the dining areas to experience dolphins swimming by. Through the months of June to September Humpback whales visit Niue during the annual migration path. If you hear the bell ring that means that a whale is in the bay. Viewing them from the resort s deck is a must.
