"We loved our 10 day stay at Raintree Gardens and definitely hope to return some day. It is on a beautiful piece of land with incredible views and we took advantage of the fruit trees for papayas and limes! The house was comfortable and we didn't need to use the A/C but it is there in the bedrooms if needed. We were met by Ajay at the airport for pickup and he was helpful in driving us to the Bouma Waterfalls for our hike one day. He also arranged a car for us so we could drive to the other side of Taveuni. There are kayaks for use and one of our favorite activities was kayaking to the 3 islands for snorkeling which was the best on the island. The house is located easy walking distance to two separate markets which was very convenient and the fruit stand next door had delicious pineapple and different fruit ice creams which we loved. We even walked to the great snorkeling spot off Tramonto's. Highlights included having Ajay and his wife cook lovo one night for us! The Fijian people are so friendly and at the end of the 10 days, we felt part of the community."

"Our stay here was absolutely amazing. I would have to day the best part of our stay here was the staff, they are the BEST people you will ever meet, at all the places i have stayed I can in all honesty tell you i have never had watery eyes saying goodbye until this trip. We would not think twice about staying here again,, they make you feel like family ❤️"

"The property is beautiful and the owners are so nice. It is very remote area, so only one option for dining. You can cook I. Your kitchenette, but we were not prepared for the hotel being so far away from the nearest store or restaurant. Plan ahead. Shop on your way there or co tact owners ahead of time to see about arranging for meals. "

"Vale Sakoula is all that the reviews and U-tube videos show. Great location on the water with a nice dock where Robert met us for snorkeling excursions each day. Four nights of bliss in Tavenui!! I see why it stays booked. Robert and Vinna are caring and terrific people. As are Tony & Katie!! Our best stay ever in 30 years."

"What a sparkling gem to find Helen and Peter’s place to end our stay in Fiji. Just perfect for the 2 of us. Its quiet, amazing 180 degree views of the ocean and the islands,beautiful garden with the old gracious mango tree and comfortable bed, and value for money compared to our stays in resorts. Helen arranged for delicious home cooked Fijian meals to be delivered to our door at half of the price of elsewhere You can walk to other cafes and supermarket. Peter bought us home baked bread, coconuts , eggs and milk. Highly recommended would come in a heartbeat. Thankyou so much. "

"Amazing staff rooms and food. "

"From the moment you arrive to the moment you leave, the staff treat you like family and make your stay totally comfortable and enjoyable. The experience is one I won't soon forget. Vinaka to all of the staff at Maqai."

"Beautiful location and staff. Everyone was very accommodating and helpful."

"Loved my week long stay at Taveuni. I decided on this place for the grounds, accessibility to the ocean, and opportunity to interact with others. The plantation grounds were lovely. Rooms are variable - I recommend Bure 112 (upgraded) or 5. Haven’t seen many others. The restaurant was reliable - big meals in the evenings. Great omelet and pancakes. Try the road for the best roti, papaya and plantains or a fish meal for $1.50-$5 US. Kava and songs in the evenings. Lovely ladies in staff will help you with everything you need. Fins and snorkel, towel rental. Shower out back for late flight departures. Nice pool. Central location. Excursions with Pete, Mateo and Batman car were great. Walking distance to a couple food places, airport and two small markets, and beautiful evening sunsets (Tramonte)/sunrises. "
