Such a wonderful spot

Liz was just the best! I only stayed one night, however the little spot is so well fitted out with everything you would ever need. Shower has good pressure, it's a nice quiet spot, definitely recommend and will stay again if I'm back down there.

Exceptional Hospitality

Liz went over and beyond to welcome myself in what were challenging circumstances. Her joy and love of life is reflected in her Boho Style Haciendas. Close to the Surf and Shopping Locale, what is there not to love.

Lovely place with amazing host.

The stay could not have been more perfect. I love the vibe of the place. Everything has a lovely Fiji vibe about it. It is perfectly clean both inside and out.Liz is amazing. I got greeted with a nice snack and a drink when I arrived. She showed me around and each morning was available if I had any questions.I found the place so close to everything. On my last day I got given another drink with another little snack.Love this place.

Satisfactory.

A smallish unit with a quaint system of access to some amenities. Liz, the hostess, goes out of her way to provide everything and ensure comfort. We liked the homely, non clinical atmosphere. No smell of commercial cleaners, everything spotlessly clean, nevertheless. We were very comfortable with the rather informal and basic amenities. The bathroom is apparently quite new and very flash! Trying to work through BookaBach is just a pain; we could not contact Liz until AFTER we had booked!

Liz could not have been more helpful and accommodating. Even with baked goods on arrival. She let us use her garage for our wet motorbike gear (tail end of cyclone Hale). She was very friendly and we would definitely recommend staying here
