Our week-long stay was terrific. Katherine and Rod, the owners, are wonderful hosts. They have built something very special. The staff, the rooms and the setting are great. The moment we landed we were greeted by their driver. He helped us with our luggage and within 20 minutes we arrived at the resort. We were greeted by Katherine who showed us around and helped us with planning activities and took care of all the related coordination and bookings. One important note is that at least ~24 hours’ notice is needed for most activities so keep that in mind. The tours we chose were the Lavena coastal walk, a visit to Bobby’s farm, Bird watching and snorkeling on Rainbow reef (twice). Everything was outstanding. Many of the operators only take cash which we were able to get at an ATM that is in a town about 10 minutes way by car. We found the location to be perfect. It is positioned within walking distance of the waterslide, the International Date Line and the hike to the White Cross (about a 1.5-hour hike). There are also a couple of small stores and a bakery only a 5-minute walk away. The view across the channel is stunning and we enjoyed beautiful sunsets looking over its expanse most evenings. The only pier on the island is adjacent to the resort. We had fun watching the ferries come and go. It might be possible to catch one to Vanua Levu, but we didn’t explore that option. The onsite restaurant was good and the service was outstanding. The menu has a mixture sandwiches, pizza from a wood fired oven (not to be missed), seafood and 3 unique daily Fijian specials. We never had a problem getting a table, but some planning may be needed during the busy season. A continental breakfast is included in the room rate. They will also pack a to go lunch if you need one for a tour. Finally, I want to acknowledge the staff. They couldn’t have been more helpful and friendly and they seemed to genuinely care about our comfort. They helped make our stay unforgettable.

Perfect relaxing holiday with lovely hosts and super lovely staff Not far away from the best diving in Fiji
