We stayed at an island called malolo lai lai 45 mins off drom denauru. Well worth the travel.

beaches were pristine and my dd loved it so much, she's 3.

we stayed at a beach villa at musket cove resort which has twoo bedrooms and a kitchenette.

I guess it depend what you want there. If you love the beach according to all my friends denuru has really ashy water. If you dont mind the swimming pool, denauru has lovely resorts.
