The Hostelz.com Review
Coral View is a functional and friendly resort. Situated on the island of Tavewa, it is a great place to sit back, relax, and sunbathe.

Like much of Fiji’s budget accommodation, bathroom, and showering facilities are basic but well maintained. You might find a queue for the cold-water showers but in this resort no one is in too much of a hurry to do anything. Large dorm rooms and a few private bures hold a maximum of forty-two guests -- making it a perfect place to make friends and meet like-minded travellers.

The resort puts on nightly entertainment and after dinner staff perform traditional Fijian songs and encourage travellers to participate in dancing and games. For those with a bit more energy there are some non-strenuous walks including a climb to the highest part of the island. This is a great vantage point to view the Yasawa Islands and check out neighbouring Turtle Island – the holiday resort of the rich and famous.

The staff make a real effort to make guests feel welcome. They display a Fijian word of the day and daily weather report. There are regular trips to the nearby Blue Lagoon and local caves, and there is a regular flow of free tea and coffee.

This is one of the best budget accommodations in the Yasawas, although the quality of all of these places fluctuates so ask other travellers. Coralview is a bit stingy with food and doesn't provide change for any payments, but the rooms are very, very clean. The staff is kind, upbeat, and accommodating. The island itself is great, with walking trails and high points for beautiful views. If you are a budget traveller in Fiji and want to venture out to the smaller islands, Coralview is a very good bet.

If you just want to relax in the Fijian sun this place is perfect for you. No distractions like TV anywhere, just the ocean and the beach and good people. The staff were really great and friendly and the food was adequate for a person who eats an average amount of food; if you're a big guy there may not be enough food at each meal. If you can deal with bare bones accommodation then this place is great. Loved it, hope to be back some day.
