Yasawa Island Group Hostels

"Safe Landing is a very small resort, located near the top of the beautiful Yasawa Islands. It takes about four hours from Denarau Marina to reach the resort on the Yasawa Flyer catamaran that services most of the resorts in Fiji's Western outer islands -- but it's more than worth the relaxing trip. From the moment you step off the small water taxi that ferries you to the island, you are greeted by some of the friendliest, genuine people you'll ever meet. The resort has a large dorm, about 8-10 private beachfront bures with ensuite...  more »

"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...  more »

"Great place! The staff is very friendly and welcoming, the food is excellent, and the dorms don't feel half as big as they are. The coral reef extremely stunning, I got so sunburned that even my doctor said he hadn't seen anything like that before. Just go there and enjoy a little piece of paradise!" … "We stayed at Manta Ray for five days/four nights and loved every minute of it. We stayed in the private jungle bure which I would definitely recommend over the dorms. The bure was right on the beach and faced out to the beautiful blue...  more »

"Very nice people, good food, beachfront bure - The local staff were all very friendly and welcoming. We stayed there one week and were able to get to know the friendly locals and to experience what "Fiji time" means as they are always happy and good fun. The food was excellent and they even prepared special vegetarian meals. Lo's Tea House is highly recommended. The son took us to a very nice snorkeling spot and they even took us to the local church on Good Friday. The bure was right by the beautiful and clean beach. We had a good time...  more »

"The word paradise was invented to describe Orsman's Bay Lodge. Built on the beachfront, surrounded by palm trees and crystal clear waters, it has to be one of the prettiest places in the world. A band of welcome singers -- bearing refreshing glasses of fruit juice and smiles -- waits to greet every guest. Once you step onto the island you are on "Bula Time" -- there is no rush, no hassle, just relaxation. The long, thin dorm houses around sixteen beds, each with their own fly net. For those with more cash to spare, you can rent a private...  more »

"The most wonderful place i have ever been - Kim and his family are truly amazing.Very simple, very nice people, just what i often miss back home. You can sit and talk to them at night after diner under the stars and they talk about their life, their struggles, everything. It is like living with a family there. One dinner was chicken cooked in earth-oven, dug and covered with banana leaves in typical fijian way. The best place to go. Also like despite of all these things they haven't got too many tourists, which is bad enough for them, but...  more »

"Seaspray is basic but the atmosphere is amazing and it was one of the best places i stayed during my trip. The island is fantastic as are the people, we managed to build a bure with the locals, catch and eat fish, have a lovo (can't spell it!), and way too much kava. Booked for a week, stayed for two. Do it!" … "… a chat or you can just do as you please. The shower is a pipe with dripping water, but what more do you need on an island! The food is FANTASTIC and the bure's are comfortable and cozy.

"Left hungry! - We stayed a Nalova Bay in 2007 so things may have changed. We often stay at budget resorts and do not have high expectations. The accommodation is fine, the beach is divine. The problem was with unhappy staff and very poor food. We went to bed hungry every night! take a lot of snacks if you go, or hope for improvements!" … "… the resorts modern bungalows from the clear blue waters of the Bay and the majestic Pacific Ocean beyond the reef.

"Great staff, super snorkeling on both sides of the resort, nice bures - the staff here was just great, and a lot of them. snorkeling was great on both sides of the resort. bures are split between the leeward and windward side of the island so try and decide which you want. but all depends on the wind that day.

"A Perfect Island Retreat - This resort was exactly what we wanted. There are just two Bures right on the beach. We stayed here for eight nights, and for three of them were alone apart from our wonderful hosts Tim and Onni. This is not a party resort, in fact it would be more suited to honeymoon couples. There is no electricity, the shower runs cold water, the toilet is in a small hut between the two Bures, and although it says there is a washing machine, we ended up washing our clothes by hand under the shower. However, this is exactly what...  more »
