The calmness, the host, the view

Worth knowing

The road. It is indeed accessible without SUV but you gotta be careful if you have a rental car and wanna be sure you’re getting the deposit back. Although if you’re an adventurer, it is possible to come with the public bus as well !

Delicious food for 15Fjd/meal, free kayaks for the river (beautiful views from down there), and lots of activities. Pool table, kitchen (15-20fjd per day used), and a great host who knows the best card games.

Difficult drive to the retreat and very basic facilities

Guest Australia Aug 24, 2025 Couple

4.0

The owners/managers were nice people

Worth knowing

The property description in booking.com needs to be clearer. It is a 20+ km drive on a very rough unsealed road and the facilities at the retreat are very basic. No hot water, cell like rooms and a piece of toast for breakfast (egg costs more) as does everything including using their kitchen to prepare your own food.

It’s a fun place to stay and hopefully will always retain its character

The location is superb and our host Lai was extremely helpful and accomodating. Our arrival was unexpected as he’d not got any booking through from booking . Com. The river is beautiful and a great place for swimming .

Worth knowing

Our arrival was unexpected. Even though we had a booking confirmation the hotel had no idea that we were coming. Sadly the facilities have become very run down and need upgrading. We expected it to be back packer standard but it didn’t quite meet this

Un accueil bien décevant

5.0

Pas grand-chose. Nous avons été très déçu par rapport aux commentaires élogieux sur cet hébergement.

Worth knowing

Nous sommes habitués au homestay car nous en avons fait quelques uns pendant notre séjour au Fidji. Nous espérions faire de la randonnée et vivre une expérience fidjienne. Rien de tout ça. Quand nous sommes arrivés tout le monde était à la sieste. Finalement le propriétaire nous a entendu, nous a fait visité le site et notre logement. Le site manque d’entretien ce qui est fort dommage. Les serviettes sont odorantes. Le soir nous avons prévu de manger sur place vu la difficulté de la route. Nous nous sommes retrouvés tout seuls face à nos assiettes pour un repas sans grande saveur. Le lendemain au petit déjeuner, pas de café ou du moins même pas de quoi en faire un. Toujours pas d’échange avec les propriétaires : l’expérience fidjienne n’est malheureusement pas là. Bref nous ne sommes pas restés car nous n’avons même pas pu faire une randonnée.
