Vacation rentals in Rabi Island

The staff at Taveuni Island Resort were very friendly and welcoming. Storm and Raymond had the best suggestions for local activities and were very helpful in setting up these activities. The staff was very thorough when cleaning during our eating hours. The food there was amazing! Props to the chef because they made each dish on the spot! Storm, Raymond and the staff also provided a nice birthday surprise for my girlfriend which it more special!

Wow!! What a fantastic adventure it was. Our 3 kids were in tears leaving (12, 11 and 9). The friendships made with the other kids will have a lifetime impact on my kids. Special mention to 12 year old Mo, who we wish we could bring home with us!! What a treasure he and the other kids in the village are. Our kids even spent a day at the school. Pa is nothing other than a true gentleman, who is a true master of his domain on this island and the life he leads there. Think of it has having a 24hr personal guide. You will never get that in a resort! The location of the island is nothing other than spectacular. The house is beautiful. It’s set back from the beach and it’s a small trek, but it’s in a beautiful little lush space surrounded with Pa’s family. To get the most out of this adventure, you need to immerse yourself into the family and the island life. Don’t sit back like you’re in a resort. We will definitely be going back.

Vinaka, Willy for a wonderful stay! We had a great time! The location was excellent, such a beautiful part of the world. Welcome to campers paradise! This stay isn’t for everyone; you will be living in an ‘off grid’ bure, situated on the top of a cliff looking down on the local village. It’s set up on solar battery power with sufficient lights in the house and on the deck - bring a torch for the outdoors. Fresh rainwater a plenty, and a stove to boil your own drinking water if needed. Cold bucket showers to wash off the hot day and afternoons embracing the local way of life. Remember to bring plenty of the essentials you may need (mozzie spray, environmentally friendly soap, rain jacket for the boat ride etc) as this is as remote as it gets! Willy was a great host; very easy to communicate with prior to and very attentive throughout our stay. Willy ran some excellent activities like snorkelling near a sunken volcano and fishing for our dinner. Hope to be back soon, Meg and Justin

We had a magical 8 night stay for our honeymoon. Lomani is a very special place - peaceful, private and romantic. Knox as a great host and we loved the lovo and kava on our last night. We enjoyed snorkelling, sea kayaking and hiking in the surrounding areas. The cottage is rustic, but very comfortable. We visited in the low season, so food options were a bit more limited and guests should prepare for some creative self-catering using local supplies!

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 😊

A beautiful villa at the top of a steep hill above Maravu with great views across the strait. It was a great base for our trip - 3 couples. The pool is a great amenity to have particularly when it’s hot and humid. As mentioned in the listing, there is no air conditioning so it can get quite warm during the day but we found the fans in the bedrooms and the breeze at night to be quite effective so no issue for us. The bed linen and toiletries and towels provided were great and the kitchen is well stocked, the fridge full of bottled water was also very much appreciated. Whilst the meal plans were a convenient option, we only did one dinner through our hosts as my partner is from the island so we had family and friends to arrange food and preferred to go out etc. Tramonto at the bottom of the hill is a favourite of ours whenever we’re on the island, Dive Cafe is also a lovely spot to sit and relax with a coffee or food and Ria’s in Naqara for some local faves - cheaper than resorts too!

We had lovely time over the Christmas holiday. The view was amazing and it was super quiet. We kayaked out to one of the islands and the snorkeling there was pretty amazing. Helene organized a ride from the airport, which was very close and could've been easily walked to/from. The villa seemed to be recently renovated, had everything we needed and I think when the pool is finished being built it will add a nice touch. It was unfortunate that the solar power was out on the main house which affected the Wi-Fi, but otherwise it's Fiji! Renting a car in my opinion is recommended as it was a bit of a walk to the cafe with the good coffee, but there are plenty of resorts nearby to eat at. Shout out to Ajay who picked us up from the airport and gave us a tour to the waterfalls at Bouma and to Civa pearl farm tour. He also let us rent his car for a few days so we could get around. Overall a great trip to Taveuni island

An absolutely amazing experience staying at Sere Ni Ika. The location is perfect and the house itself has everything you need. The housekeeper, Loata, and her family were beautiful hosts and looked after our every need during our stay (including cleaning the house, changing the beds, doing our laundry). Loata cooked some lovely Fijian meals for us and helped to organise unique experiences for us (like cooking a traditional lovo!). Would definitely recommend staying at Sere Ni ika - we will be returning for sure!
