Another Namale Resort SC - so were all the FD's at Namale Resort?

Interesting.....

I looked at a whole bunch of pool pics last week trying to match this and had no luck:

but based on what you just wrote I found this at the Namale Resort:

I think it looks like a possible match, what do you guys think?

Very likely.

One thing I didn't specify above, is that pic of the pool & chairs in the Bachelorette Sweepstakes Getaway matches the Civa Vila which also looks like it matches that screencap with Ashley in the white tank top and curtain over the bed.

^^^^JBanana Thanks for pulling the sc from the Namale video. I can't tell even squinting whether the tile work is the same. LOL.

One thing I was thinking about is that before I knew Ben was on the national park date (forgot the name) the date description mentioned hot springs at this park. Now I seem to remember seeing pics of the "hot springs" place and it looked more like small pools/spas to me than a natural habitat. I can't tell from the sc with Ben and Ash whether it is a regular pool or not.

Is that pool a private pool? It looks like several villas can use it. Here is another pic of civa vila from trip advisor:

haha, you're right, I don't know if it's possible to really tell for sure! I guess it's just the closest I've seen so far. I looked at a lot of resort pool pics from Savusavu based on fijiman's statement that that's where she went with Ben. But I'm sure there's a lot of pools that I didn't see pictures of, too! But so far this is the only one I've seen that came close.

the picture on the resort site is one of the "traveler's pics" and the title of it (if you right click on it and choose "view image") is "our private pool" so it seems like it's a resort customer's personal vacation pick and they had the pool to themselves.

ETA: btw this is referring to the pool pic I posted a few posts up, not the one that pattycake just posted above.

I think the Honeymoon Bures are a better match than the villas for this screencap.

So maybe Ben got a villa and JP got a Bures. Here is a description of both:

The Civa Villas:

The villas sit perched on volcanic uplifts with bird's eye views of the Koro Sea. More than 2,000 square feet, each is comprised of seven separate bures with the main bedroom extending into a private lounge that opens to the sea.

Each bure has a shower and bath area with private tub - excellent before taking in the sun and scenery on your lover's balcony! In another wing, discover a dining area that converts into another bedroom, complete with luggage storage, mini bar and generously appointed indoor and outdoor showers. From there, visit a romantic lookout nook perched above the villa and outdoor entertainment area with wraparound infinity pool. Amenities include walkthrough wardrobe, safe for valuables, Wi-Fi, personal Apple entertainment channels with drop down screen, Bose® professional home theatre systems and mini bar stocked and replenished with the beverages you desire.

The Honeymoon Bures

Built on grand lava pinnacles and uplifts with magnificent views of the beach and Koro Sea, the five Honeymoon Bures come complete with sexy spa tub and shower for two and a private, oceanfront deck, with three of the love nests offering a private plunge pool. Quality appointments include fully stocked mini-bar, coffee, tea, snacks, and Pure Fiji brand shower amenities along with hairdryers, robes, make-up mirrors and CD players with an excellent selection of music. With the choice of a king bed or two singles.

I wonder why they gave JP the honeymoon suit. Ohhh babyyyy :gotcha:

Good grief! They even showed a brief clip of a wedding in that video at the 10:15 mark.
