11 July 2007 Katherine would recommend this property

Liked: The bar and pool area are well kempt and classy. There is a TV in the dining and bar area. I loved that the hostel accomodation provides a free locker next to your bed. The staff was helpful and you're right on the beach.

Liked: Very high standards. Felt like a hotel rather than a hostel. Dorms were extremely quiet considering you share with 34 people.

Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.

ANDREW REES

18 March 2007 ANDREW would recommend this property

Liked: Great hostel, really clean and modern. Right on the beach, though Nadi Bay isn't the nicest of beachs. Bus into town stops right outside and runs several times a day.Be aware there isn't a kitchen here so you won't be able to cook your own food. There is an ace restaurant in the hostel-the food is delicious but we thought it was quite expensive. Also the dishes don't come with things like rice, veggies etc so you have to pay extra for those. A few hostels in the same area have restaurants which serve cheaper food. Horizon Backpackers is next door and we ended up eating there most nights. Be prepared to pay about $10 for lunch and about $18 for dinner (not including drinks). Internet facilities avalible at $4 and hour which isn't too bad but its cheaper in town. No TV room so if your planning a longer stay make sure you bring stuff to do. We had a private room with a TV but you only get one channel, Fiji One, so its a bit limited. Free breakfast is toast with coffee and juice. Loads of sunbeds and the pool is really nice. Great if you just want to relax and not do a lot.There's a travel desk in reception but just check how much commission they take-we didn't use it but there are places in town that don't charge any commission. Also beware of Kava-an aquired taste!!!!Horizon Backpackers seems a bit more catered towards the backpacker with TV and internet room, pool table and entertainment a couple of times a week Can't comment on the rooms though.
