Outback Retreat/Hotel, Ba Fiji

Das Personal ist super nett und ziemlich lustig! Der Fluss ist sehr klar und bietet hervorragende Möglichkeiten. Schwimmen, Kanu fahren (sind 2 vor Ort). Das Essen war typisch fijianisch und ist sein Geld wert. Wer es etwas rustikaler liebt und dem touristischen Treiben an der Küste entfliehen will ist hier bestens aufgehoben. Es gibt eine Busanbindung ab Ba oder man lässt sich per Taxi hinauffahren. Immer wieder!

The calmness, the host, the view

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 !

The only staff was a man named Lai and he made it worth the drive up the mountain. Located about 30 min drive up dirt winding roads. It has some wonderful views from the second floor deck. Lai took us for a walk after he made breakfast and showed us some beautiful views of the mountain. We walked down to the river and saw horses on the other side. The air conditioner worked ok but I am not sure how well it would work if it was really hot out. Windows have screens an grated to keep bats and other critters out

This is promoted wrong. It is a retreat motel located at the last stop on the bus. Rooms are nice , no hot water and a very basic . They are located in the middle of the jungle so you can not keep 100% of bugs out. The breakfast although good was just flour flatbread and coconut milk but for the price we should have eggs or some type of proteins. Dinner was last minute but basically chicken hot dogs and if they were 5 not 15 dollars it would be good. Finally the so call horseback riding. They do not have horseback riding but the guy that lives next door has two horses and for a cash fee they will take you out. I prefer horses in better shape , and saddles whole, but what really took the cake was when the one horse kicked the other so hard that it would no longer move and we had to cancel the ride . The internet work well when you are at the office , not in the rooms . They have a pool table that thee fabric is half torn off. For something that just reopened it looks like a 50 year old hostel with cabin. I would also make a note if you plan to visit Navala , DONT , you are better of going to disney word it the same thing , fake village with cover price , plus per person fee for a guide , plus plus plus .... They have you trapped so they just take all they can

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

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.
