6.6/10

The hotel has a great view of the beach and the swimming pool, perfect for enjoying a beer while watching the sunset. However, I found the dining options to be a bit pricey, and the advertised 16-bed dorm actually had 18 beds, which made things a bit cramped. While the staff were friendly and helpful, the cleaning procedures could use some improvement. Overall, it's a decent choice if you’re looking for a good view but be prepared for some downsides.

Rooms

5.0

The rooms had a great view of the beach and pool, but they were tiny and felt claustrophobic. I could hear everything from the neighboring rooms, which wasn't ideal.

Service

The location is quite convenient, especially for those planning to catch a boat from Port Denarau to the islands, and it’s close to the airport.

Dining

Dining was a little pricey and took a while to arrive, but my meal was nice once it came. Breakfast is F$40 and not included, which felt a bit steep.

The hotel is located in a lively area that overlooks the beach, making it a welcoming spot for travelers. The rooms did meet my needs, although I had to deal with some noise from a generator outside. The service was a highlight; the staff really went out of their way to make me comfortable. The dining experience was disappointing, particularly the breakfast. On the whole, though, I felt it was good value for money given the location and service.

The hotel is conveniently located right on a beautiful beach and close to the airport, making it easy for quick stays. While the rooms were decent, they felt a bit neglected and could use more attention to cleanliness. The service was a mixed bag; some staff were friendly and accommodating, while others seemed disengaged. Overall, it’s a fair value for money if you’re just looking for a basic stay.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the location was absolutely perfect, right near the beach with lots of friendly staff around, I found the dining options to be quite limited and not very tasty. The rooms were spacious and clean, which was great, but the service left a lot to be desired. Overall, it's a decent place, but not without its flaws.

The hotel had a great location right on the beach, which was perfect for my last night in Fiji. The staff was mostly friendly and provided excellent service, but my experience checking in was really disappointing. The room was adequate for what we paid, but it did need some updating and had a funky smell. Overall, I had a good time, but there are definitely areas that could use improvement.

Rooms

5.0

The room was adequate and reasonable for what we paid, but it definitely needs a makeover. There was an old wardrobe next to the TV that felt out of place, and the room had a funky smell.
