    My room was next to the staff tea room so much noise espeacially when trying to sleep. The steps are not very safe. when opening the room have to remember to leave the on door knob because need to lock it. The room does not have chain to keep secure while opening the door for someone.

    The room was nice with 2 double beds. Bathroom was fairly clean & well maintained. Amazing staff ready to assist you.

    The area is a typical urban close to the airport location with more traffic, construction and plane noise. I knew this before going there and it’s still worth going! We didn’t have hot water and the room felt small and dark after stays on the islands but definitely value for money.

    The staff are amazing and so helpful, a few restaurant options around and we paid ver little for the double room with private bathroom. It’s close to the airport, easy to get around and they are happy to organise tours for you or horse riding on the beach

    Ideal for a stop off en route to Yasawa Islands
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • Standard Double Room
    • Stayed 1 night

    As far as we could see, there was just 1 toilet upstairs, and 2 showers but 1 shower didn't have a working light while we were there. This was fine for us staying 1 night, but the small number of shared facilities might have been an issue if we'd stayed longer

    We spent 1 night here before heading over to the Yasawa Islands - the shuttle bus can take you from the hotel over to Port Denarau for the ferry. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, and we really liked that the delicious breakfast was available from 6am onwards so we were able to eat before the early shuttle bus. The room was clean, if a little dated (window didn't quite close properly) but it did have air con so perfectly suited our needs and was not expensive

    While common areas were generally clean, the hostel could defitnitely use a little updating/deep clean (ie. fingerprints and stains on doors and walls, showers didn't drain properly, etc.). In general, not the cleanest but not the worst hostel I've been to.

    Works fine as a transitory hostel where you sleep for a night or two. Slept in a 8 person dorm, beds were comfy and clean. The pool area was really nice and there were people singing songs outside in a group when I got to the hostel at around 7pm, so they do have some entertainment! The lady at reception was really friendly and helpful.

    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.

    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.
