I enjoyed staying here. The food at night was excellent. A lot of the locals eat here because it has one of the best chefs in the area. I had a issue on the night that I was staying there. I asked for a taxi to be booked for 05:00 in the morning as I had a flight to catch. Lucky I booked the taxi well in advance for when I had to be at the airport. I woke at 04:30 and waited untill the staff woke at 05:30 when then finally booked me my taxi. Not good customer service at all.

I really liked this hostel. It definitely feels like home. It's small but it has a really good atmosphere and the staff is really friendly and nice. The breakfast every morning is free and it's good. There's a swimming pool, free WiFi and chatting with other backpackers or with the staff. There are no many beds in the rooms and the air co works perfectly. The bus to town and to the Islands stops 50m further. If you need some help with booking your travel on the islands, they can help you!! :)

The staff were super friendly and the hostel had a real homely feel. However, the bunk beds need some sort of ladder to get up more easily.Not all of us are gymnasts! The dinners were delicious, especially the curry. Loved the entertainment on our first night. Drank kava and were told stories about Fiji and watched the staff do a Fijian dance.

It was a good stay for a stop-over close to the airport. Staff is friendly and very helpful as it seems very common in fiji

The staff at this hostel are outstanding as well as the food, however the location, facilities and showers are not of great standard and the rooms very hot even with the aircon on.

Staff are very nice and the food is just great! I love their food and the room is clean and comfortable. This is a great place I believe and if I get chance I would like to stay there again. If you choose to stay there, don't miss their meals, everything they provide are great.

I live in Fiji, so my standards might be lower than some other reviewers, but overall I really enjoyed staying here. If you've got to stay in Nadi before going out to the islands, this is an excellent choice. Their food is supposedly amazing, but I arrived just after the major flood so those facilities weren't available.

I was there when the floods hit Nadi and it was like staying at home! Even though we had no water for a week, (showered in the rain and pool haha!) and limited food and couldn't get out much, I had an AMAZING time with the staff and the other travellers!

The staff were very friendly but this did not make up for the fact that after my first nights stay I was covered in BED BUG bites. There is onlt one toilet and shower for everyone in the hostel which is not nearly adequate and the bedrooms lacked locks with some even lacked door knobs. The food is very good and the place is generally clean. I would go back for dinner but never to stay

I stayed on the recommendation of a friend and I wasn't disappointed. The staff were friendly and arranged for me to be picked up from the airport. The included breakfast was a bonus and the evening meals were really tasty and good value for money, although the service was a bit on the slow side (even taking into consideration "Fiji Time") Free Wifi and a nice pool all excellent for the cheap price, just wish we could've locked the dorm room seeing as it was right off the reception area.

We only stayed one night, but except for their internet working very very slowly and their pc not working, we can't fault the place: it was friendly, clean and secure and conveniently located. With a 15 minute walk to the nearest regular bus to Nadi town (and I believe there are more buses to the hostel, but not so regularly and a short taxi ride to the airport. Breakfast was nice too and we were allowed to leave our luggage there for the day and use the facilities after check out.

I really liked this hostel, it is a very chilled out and friendly little place. Me and my friend had a private room, which was fantastic for the price, very clean and comfortable. The food was delicious too. The staff were very helpful. They worked out our journey for us and got us onto the bus that took us to the marina for the ferry to the islands. Thanks for a lovely stay, i hope to come back again!

Really nice hostel with great staff, they really make you feel at home! Beside the awesome staff, the place is clean and tidy and cheaper than the big hostels in the neighborhood. Also, of the four restaurants that we tried in the area, this hostel has the best food. It's a bit more quiet than most hostels but it's a really place to stay at (if you want a bit more pulse you can always go to Smugglers Cove down the street). Would warmly recommend it to anyone I know!

A really good simple lodge, very clean and comfortable room with air con (we had a double), a pool, and dinner was excellent. Staff, especially Joe, were delightful, gentle and very laid back. Very quiet place close to Nadi Beach. Nothing was too much trouble. Taxi/bus ride to Nadi town and airport
