    A/C was too strong, I was cold at night even with a jumper on The showers are not convenient The side bars of the top bed I had were broken (tied up with sticky tape), which made it dangerous to climb up and down the ladder.. Someone stole the water bottle I stored in the fridge No kitchen for guests so you can never cook (seems to be the same in every hostel in Fiji though..)

    A/C in the room Spacious dorm, not too crowded like the other hostels around Nice swimming pool Friendly staff fridge storage available Good location Activities via the sister hostel 30m away

    Nothing - this room and hotel was great for the price and short stopover we needed.

    We used Bluewater Lodge as an quick overnight stop transiting through Nadi - but for the short time we were there we enjoyed our stay. Staff were very friendly and helpful, and helped us out with local food options when we arrived late, and helped with local tips/etc in the morning before our departure. Room was spacious and clean, and shared facilities were also well kept. Would recommend.

    There’s no public transport nearby. If you wanna go to the town center you have to take taxi.

    The staff is very nice and invited me to have a bowl of kava. The bed is clean. In general is suits it’s price

    Research Islands before you go!!! This accommodation booked everything for us and we ended up paying alot more than we could have as I think they get quite a commission. And we were not told some info. Like the fuel fee for the boat (not alot but added extra) and meals being a mandatory extra cost. Lucky we found out before we left for the islands. We only done 4nights, 5days tour. Blue lagoon was lovely, Mantaray island was good and wish we had done 2 nights there cause Southsea is just a day tour you can do from nadi so not sure why we were put on that for a night as its everything we said we didn't want and didnt enjoy it. Everyone who stayed overnight said exactly the same thing. We also had to change our times for the boat pickup as the boat stops at the islands 2 times a day and we would have ended up sitting on the boat for 8hrs instead of on the island. This happend twice! We were lucky we chose to do more expensive tour. Our friends done the backpacker ones and some of the places they stayed were horrendous. Rats, bed bugs, unwelcoming staff, glass and rubbish all over beaches and more. They ended up getting upgraded.

    Room was decent size, we stayed before and after our island hopping. I preferred the bathroom that was in the room compared to ones without. Seemed cleaner. Location is great, close to food places.

    Sharing the toilet and shower was a terrible experience. Will never do it again. Thought it would be cleaned throughout the day and kept clean but it wasn’t. Quite unhygienic

    Location was good, pool was nice.

    The secret for this place it is its people
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller

    A few touches of maintenance in the common areas would make the experience a bit more pleasant. The pool and the garden could be cleaner. Breakfast prices with good but simple items are the same of other more substantial places, which made me go somewhere else on the second day.

    Bluewater is a decent lodge which offers affordable accommodation at only few steps to the Wailoaloa beach and the airport. Many beach clubs around, with affordable food and drinks options - its Fiji! There is also nice supermarket just 2min walking distance, super handy. I stayed in a Private Room with own ensuite, it catered nicely for the price paid. The secret for this place it is its people. Shoutout to Eggi, Tex and Jeff, who made my time there unforgettable. Would recommend.

    The room is very minimal, not much more than a couple of beds and a single cupboard. Comfortable and spacious but nothing incredible.

    The pool was beautiful, the staff were very friendly and helpful, the AC in our room was vital for the hot nights, and the location was solid! This was a very enjoyable stay here, comfortable and good value for money.

    It was what I expected for the price I paid and I would defitely stay there again.

    I booked a room with an ensuite, I had aircon and my room was closest to reception but it was fairly quiet both nights I stayed. I chose this for my budget accommodation as well as convenience close to the airport and dinner places. The staff were so lovely with 24/7 reception my late check-in wasn't an issue at all. They have a cute little cafe with some baked options and coffee in the mornings and I had the best sweet muffin and coffee for breakfast both mornings. They have cold water in the fridge at reception to buy, otherwise the small grocery shop is one street over and easy to get any snacks/water, I could buy cheaper big waterbottles, as well as sunscreen from here for my island trips as that gets more expensive on the boats.
