Family hotels and homes in Wayasewa Island

Amazing people, beautiful setting, excellent service, wonderful food ( and yes the portions were more than enough), friendly atmosphere,...

Shark snorkelling was even better than the bull shark dive imo more interactive. Great corals out front of the property and hike to the summit and cave made for a two day great trip next time would book for 4 days and shark snorkel each day they were beautiful and a fun boat ride out to the reef to boot.

Lovely staff ! They go that extra mile for you!

Super friendly staff,and welcoming, helpful.

Food was amazing, diving instructors very competent, manta ray swim was incredible! dorm was always very clean and acrivities so much fun the only thing is, for backpackers info: you HaVE to pay for the mandatory meal plan per night you have booked, there’s no way getting around that… even if you don’t want to eat or don’t plan on being on the island that day but i absolutely enjoyed my stay would definately recommend!

Staying at Tai Evi Homestay in Soso Village was an unforgettable experience filled with warmth and community. The village, with around 600 people and 90 children attending the local school, welcomed us with open arms. Everywhere we walked, we would hear "Bula" being called out to us from peoples homes and yards. On the evening of our arrival, we met with the chief and brought offerings to get his blessing for our stay. Silo, Bill, Va, Rovini, Ike, Peter, and Loochi—made us feel like family. We enjoyed safe snorkeling in the vibrant coral reefs just off the beach, and the boat ride to the village while short, was filled with stunning views. The money spent for our two-night stay, felt like a small price for the rich cultural experience and genuine connections we made. The food prepared by Va was delicious, the bathroom, shower, and accommodations were clean, and we even had a power bar to recharge our devices during the day. We brought water with us, but were pleased to find out they had filtered water for us too if needed. If you're looking for adventure and a genuine experience, you have found your homestay! We wished we could stay longer, and hope to be back again! Current cost breakdown: 1. Accommodation: $96 FJD for 2 nights (booked via Booking.com). 2. Chief Offering: $25 FJD for kava (if needed to purchase in the village otherwise buy in Nadi) + $10 FJD per person for the ceremony, which goes to helping the village. 3. Boat Ride: $35 FJD for a one-way boat ride for the both of us (20-30 minutes). 4. Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner: $50fjd per person/day 5. Reasonably priced activities which include snorkeling/picnic, fishing, manta ray snorkeling (when in season and they are around), school visit, weaving etc.
