"Je vais essayer de faire un commentaire aussi précis que possible afin de vous aider au mieux. En effet, nous avons eu très peur en lisant les commentaires existants. Logement : Les chambres sont très bien : le lit est confortable, la chambre est propre et spacieuse. Il y a des moustiquaires à chaque fenêtre, en bon état. Il n'y a pas d'insectes bizarres, juste des fourmis, mais vous êtes en pleine nature, c'est normal. Il n’y a pas d’eau chaude, attention aux personnes sensibles au froid. La chambre est effectivement équipée d’un ventilateur, mais le courant n’est actif que quelques heures par jour, donc le ventilateur aussi. Si vous gérez bien les recharges, vous n’aurez pas de problème de batterie. Avec une SIM Vodafone, j'ai eu du réseau partout où je suis allé. Je n’ai pas utilisé le wifi de l’hôtel. La nourriture est bonne et variée. Cependant, si vous êtes sportif et que vous avez un grand appétit, les portions peuvent ne pas suffire. Pour le dernier repas, j'ai peut-être donné l'impression de ne pas avoir assez mangé, mais on m'a proposé une autre assiette. Le petit déjeuner est très rassasiant, le déjeuner est pauvre et le dîner est plus copieux. Vous aurez le droit à un bon dessert avec le dîner. Il y a peu de protéines animales. Pour la quantité, je ne peux pas leur en vouloir, beaucoup mangent deux bouchées et laissent leur assiette… ou la donnent aux chiens. Mais c'est très frustrant de voir beaucoup de gens gâcher la nourriture alors que toi tu ne manges pas à"

"Amazing people and beautiful island! Snorkeling was also incredible."

"Ocean View is a must-stay homestay for anyone looking to experience true Fiji time. As a solo traveler, the room was perfect — clean, comfortable, and peaceful. Vil and Paola took amazing care of me and always made sure I was comfortable. While the food was a bit pricey, the portions were massive as long as you are an adventurous eater — depite this I never finished a full plate! I was the only traveler on the island during my stay, which pushed me out of my comfort zone and led to some of the most meaningful experiences of my trip. I met many locals, learned about village life, and truly felt welcomed. I highly recommend attending the Sunday church service and joining the village-wide community lunch — it’s a beautiful way to connect and experience a full day of rest in true Fiji style. There’s an incredible reef just outside the school and a beautiful sandbar just a short walk and swim from the homestay. I also went handline fishing and snorkeling with sharks — both included in a single 50 FJD trip that was well worth it. I also recommend buying souvenirs from them — the prices were much better than anything I saw in Nadi, and you know the money supports the village directly, not a scam. If you’re after adventure, culture, and connection, Ocean View should be at the top of your list. 6/5 stars!"

"One of the best places I've ever stayed. The location is perfect, forget any doubts about going to the Yasawas vs mainland. Staff are very friendly. Setup of the bures is amazing, would love to have some blinds or more privacy in the bedroom, this sounds worse than it is, minor thing. More flippers/ snorkelling gear would be great."

"This resort mostly caters to the under 35 group. We had a bungalow in a quiet area away from the dorms, right on the beach. You could snorkel from your room or take a short boat trip to snorkel other areas and see manta rays. Meals are in addition to the room cost-set fee per person per day. The food was really good and the chef made us an anniversary cake that was divine. "

"We have left a piece of our heart at Naqalia Lodge and at the Yasawa Island. The staff and Management at Naqalia went above and beyond to make our stay nothing short of amazing and they were always smiling and happy to help. We stayed in the garden Bure, a traditional Fijian house, which was a pretty authentic experience of the life on the island. The food was home cooked, traditional and always in very generous portions. We sat at the table with the other guests and were a "family -like" meal times while the staff and management was playing guitar and singing songs for us. The lodge is on the beach surrounded by nature at the feet of a mountain, you can enjoy a spectacular view of the other island when you wake up with the sounds of chicken and roosters roaming around the Bure. The coral reefs just off the beach are SPECTACULAR, we could see many tropical fish of every colour, size and shape. It definitely was one of the best snorkeling spots that we have been to. The lodge offers also paid activities such as shark feeding, fishing and village visit. We spent 4 days there but we really wished we could stay more. Vinaka."
