Mud isn't my thing so almost didn't go... SO GLAD we went. Most unique and awesome experience. Tips: Don't book in advance. Cash only. Admission was $30 and a half hour massage was $40. They had 15 minute to 1 hour massages too. Don't bring much with you as you have to leave all your items in an unlocked area. However the staff takes pictures of you on your own phone the whole time which was amazing (and thus your phone is safe). I just used a phone case with a wallet attached and that's all I brought with me so I didn't worry about leaving it somewhere. They had a changing area. We didn't really need towels since in Fiji you dry fast. GET THE MASSAGE!!!! You'll never have a more affordable or quality massage in your life. Worth it!! PS - other reviews say there's vendors or something but that wasn't my experience on a Sunday.

We LOVED our experience at the Sebato Mud Pool! It was one of the most relaxing and unique things we’ve ever done. From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. They explained everything so well and made us feel completely comfortable the whole time. Covering ourselves in warm mud and soaking in the natural hot springs was not only fun, but surprisingly soothing. The setting is peaceful and beautiful, and we learned a lot about the cultural and healing aspects of the mud pools. Afterward, we got massages that were absolutely amazing – the perfect way to end the experience. This was truly one of the highlights of our trip to Fiji. We left feeling relaxed, refreshed, and grateful. Highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area!

Such a fun day out, and very reasonably priced. We didn't book through a tour company, and decided to just drive out on the day (after a visit to the Garden of the Sleeping Giant). If you have little kids, I'd suggest maybe taking goggles, as my 4 yr old got mud in her eyes a few times. Take plenty of small note cash, as souvenirs and drinking coconuts are available for village prices, cash only. Also take a towel, unless you want to hire one (at an affordable $5 each).

I absolutely ADORED my time at the Sabeto hot springs! Highly recommended to everyone who wants to escape for a couple of hours. Runs as a family business, staff is trained and super friendly, Liti guided us though the whole process and took plenty of pictures for us to remember this extraordinary experience. Plus it was my birthday and Liti surprised me with the whole staff singing me Happy Birthday! I will forever remember my time here, thanks again!! ♥️

A truly worthwhile experience at a locally owned gem. I made the drive myself—just a heads up, there’s about 4 km of off-road path between villages, so be prepared for a bit of an adventure. Upon arrival, I was warmly welcomed by Anni, who took wonderful care of me throughout the visit. She gave me a tour, made sure I was comfortable, and even captured plenty of great photos for me. I opted for the full package, which included the mud pool and a deeply relaxing one-hour body massage. I also rented a towel on-site, which was super convenient. To top it all off, I enjoyed a refreshing fresh coconut before heading out. There’s ample parking available, which is great . One thing I really appreciated is that the mud pool doesn’t have that overpowering sulfur smell often associated with hot springs. A small suggestion for the owners: adding some jet water features to the pools would be an amazing bonus!

This place was absolutely phenomenal. There was a woman who followed my friend and I around and took so many photos and videos for us. She had us pose all around and truly put the work in. The experience overall was one of the most relaxing. It was a super cool experience and I couldn’t recommend it more. While the mud dries, you’re shown local crafts and I think that is such a great business model. I definitely bought some gifts there. After going through all of the pools i got a massage… SO GOOD!!!! The women were fantastic and it was so so good. Definitely stop here on your journeys. There were also some super cute puppies.

Absolutely fantastic experience at the Sabeto Hot Springs and Mud Pools! From the start, the friendly staff made us feel welcome and guided us through each step. Covering ourselves in mud was such a unique and fun experience, and rinsing off in the thermal pools afterward was incredibly relaxing. The natural surroundings were beautiful, adding to the serene and rejuvenating vibe. We left feeling refreshed and so glad we visited. A must-do if you’re looking for a mix of adventure and relaxation!

Another great experience for early in vacation and acclimating to time changes. Less a mud bath, but more painting yourself or others in your party from a bucket of mud. Then letting it dry, before cycling through 4 pools using naturally occurring hot springs to clean you. Absolutely add the massage at the end. Bea was phenomenal. Note: it is many people in one communal room, but they are great.

40FJD per person. The road is gravel but any car can make it. The tickets are bought right there. No need to be in a tour group. And it is easy to find it on Google. Just drive a couple km past the giant gardens There is a toilet and a changing room. You keep your bag on the table in an open space where a local woman watches it. There is a guide showing you where to go and what to do first and next (no extra charge, just tip if you like). First you go to the mud area where you cover yourself with mud then go to another place to dry it then to the pool to wash off after that hot springs. There are two hot pools. You can spend as much time as you want (just know it is not recommended to spend more than 10min in the hot pool, you need to have breaks) There is also massage service if you want. Extra charge. The view is magnificent! We were there when it was pouring down and it was amazing as they have covered zones There is nothing to eat there. Bring your own snacks if you want.

Was a very unique experience! Came here after hiking up the lookout for the Sleeping Giant. Buna was nice, helpful, and very friendly. She took pics for everyone as we were covered in mud and walking around. A very unique experience. Would also recommend doing the Fijian massage after the mud bath. It was nice to see that locals also come to this place.

It was a really unique experience. I think it is a must have when you are in Fiji. It costs $30FJD per person. ☺️ The staff was friendly, nice and helpful. We needed to cover our body with mud, then we dry ourselves on the sun while the staff were taking funny photos about us. Then we enjoyed 4 different hot pools. In the last one we bought a coconut to drink ($5FJD) ☺️ a massage was available for another $40FJD.

This was a really amazing experience at first when you arrive you don't think much but after the experience it was honestly so amazing. We got discounted massages at the end which was so nice and they are well worthwhile for the price. They have a little tour around through the different pools. A must do if you get the chance you feel so rejuvenated afterwards.

Locally owned business that is worth every penny. I drove there myself, be prepared to drive a rough 4 km off road between villages. I was greeted by Anni, she took care of me and showed me around and took plenty of photos. I did the mud pool and one hour of body massage (full package) I also rented a towel from them which makes life easier. I enjoyed a cool fresh coconut at the end before I leave. There are many parking spots in case you are driving. I ll leave a photo of the prices, they are affordable. The mud pool doesn't have the strong sulfa odor that is familiar with such hot springs. For the owner(s), I wish they had some jet water in their pools, it will be a great bonus.

We had a 10-hour layover in Nadi, so we decided to make the most of it with a quick little adventure — and it turned out to be one of the most relaxing things we could’ve done. We grabbed a taxi from Nadi Market in the downtown area and headed to the mud pools. The round trip — including 90 minutes at the pools and a ride back to the airport — cost us $80. It felt a bit pricey, but the driver waited for us the entire time, so honestly, it wasn’t a bad deal. (Tip: try to negotiate a little — prices can vary.) We were greeted by a warm and friendly local auntie who guided us through the whole experience. First, we changed into our swimsuits (that’s all you really need to bring), then lathered ourselves in thick, warm mud — such a fun and strange feeling! After that, we moved through a series of hot pools to wash off and relax. After hours of travel, soaking in those pools felt amazing. The place was totally empty when we arrived around 10:00 AM, so we had the whole area to ourselves. Super peaceful. I also treated myself to a 30-minute massage for $40. Let me just say — the lady who did it had magic hands. Strong, big hands that somehow made everything feel both powerful and gentle at the same time. One of the best massages I’ve had in a long time! while I enjoyed massage, my kids were still enjoying hot pool or relaxing with ipad. We ended up staying for about 90 mins. The entrance fee was $30 per person, and towels were available for $5 if you didn’t bring one. Honestly, for how relaxing and private it was, the whole experience felt like a hidden gem. If you ever have a long stopover in Nadi, this is so worth doing.

If you’re visiting Fiji, Sabeto Hot Springs and Mud Pool is an absolute must! The experience was incredibly relaxing from start to finish. The mud pool is therapeutic and fun, and it’s honestly the perfect way to unwind and soak in the natural beauty of the area. Smearing the warm mud all over your skin and then rinsing off in the hot spring water felt both rejuvenating and refreshing. What really stood out was the massage after the soak—it was one of the best I’ve had! The staff are friendly, professional, and genuinely care about making sure you’re comfortable and relaxed. It’s a peaceful, authentic experience you won’t find at a typical spa. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to de-stress and try something unique in Fiji. Don’t miss it!
