Holiday rentals with breakfast in Vanua Levu

Beautiful place to be, helpful and friendly resort staff, plenty activities available. Short drive to town centre.

We stayed with Roland at his place in Dolphin Bay (Viola was away working). The view in the room was stunning - you could see the entire bay from their location, which is at the highest point on the property. We picked Roland's place because of the opportunities to dive with Roland, who is a certified dive instructor and has been living in Fiji for over 30 years as a native from Switzerland. A few points to note if you want to stay here: - It is remote. You will need to hire Roland & his team to pick you up and drop you off via boat, as there are no roads. The closest airport to fly into is Taveuni (Matei). - You will not have access to cook, not really. Meal plans aren't compulsory, but there really isn't another option unless you want to eat chips the entire time. We opted for the meal plan, and the food was incredible. - There isn't much to do. Bring a book, and enjoy your land-based time when not diving - It can be quite hot in the room with no breeze. There is no fan/AC

Exactly what airbnb is meant to be...clean private room, perfect to learn the Fijian culture and super cheap. Amo and her family took care of us and were our local guides for anything that we needed - ordering a taxi, arranging rides, going shopping or getting some great ice cream in town. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an authentic village experience, a budget stay in Taveuni, or a place to just feel at home 😊

Jima's place exceeded our expectations on so many levels. While this homestay is nestled in a remote Fijian village setting powered by solar and generator, the family does a remarkable job of accommodating their guests. The home is rustic, but we were very comfortable. We are divers, and Sia and her family helped us with our laundry and gear, never seeming to mind all of our things drying on the porch. They also coordinated our transportation allowing for stops in town to shop anytime we needed anything. We felt like part of the family and part of the village. Sia's cooking is out of this world! Hands down better than any of the meals we had during our resort stay. Sublime green papaya curry!!! Walking down to the water each morning for the sunrise after hearing the drumbeats calling the village to prayer is an unforgettable experience, unlike any I have ever had. I'm so grateful for our time at Jima's. We learned so much and made connections that will last our lifetimes. Amazing!

Words can’t describe how much we love this beautiful place. Bedelia, the dogs, and the rest of the crew are simply amazing. This is so more than an Airbnb. I left with new friends and feeling completely relaxed, more so than anywhere else I have stayed. From the amazing food, beautiful views, and peaceful privacy we felt so loved by each and every person. Merriannie anticipated our every need and want and always had a smile. Lupie and Coco were our constant companions and we always had one by our side. I highly recommend a massage by the beach as well as yoga with Bedelia. This added to my relaxation immensely. Bedelia and her family will always have a special place in my heart I am already planning my next visit back!

Occasionally you come across a place and a person that you just don't have words that you feel can describe or capture the essence of what you have experienced.
