"The staff at Garden Island Resort are all so lovely and caring. The gardens at the front of the building are beautiful. The location is not great for snorkeling right from the resort though amazing diving and snorkelling is available close by. The pool is directly underneath a cauldron of bats, not 1-2 bats but close to 100. The bats are screeching constantly throughout the day and there are bat droppings on the pool deck. There are few close amenities and not much within walking distance. No airport shuttle was provided despite being listed as an amenity. This property appears to need some tender loving care. Our shower head did not work correctly and leaked, our ceiling fan did not work and our safe was not bolted down."

"Excellent place to stay. Walking distance to the grocery store and several restaurants. The house itself was clean. Each room has an air-conditioning unit that kept us nice and cool. Jason, the host was very helpful and accessible. Highly recommend."

"The staff are very good, but this property is very tired and in need of a major update. The pictures DO NOT look anything like what we stayed in. The air conditioning did not work, the toilet leaks (from the bowl), cleaning staff did not clean the room, ants are everywhere in the room. "

"Great place to stay, hosts are great. The food is great can’t recommend more highly. Clean rooms and very friendly staff. Will revisit in the future for sure"

"My husband and 2 boys (5 & 7) had a wonderful stay at Vale Sekoula. Prior to booking, I messaged the host who responded quickly answering my questions and once booked, they were super informative of what to expect not only of their home, but our travel desires and what Taveuni had to offer. The caretakers Robert and Vinna are amazing! Robert picked us up at the airport, him and Vinna showed us around the house, and were so accommodating to our travel plans like going to the waterfall, snorkeling (on their boat), and water slides, which our kids loved. They can pretty much set up anything you’d like and are reasonably priced! They also have their own little stand where they sell homemade ice cream and seasonal produce. The house was beautiful inside and out— literally 2 min from the airport. The pool was perfect at all times of the day and the views were spectacular. The house was comfortable more than enough room for the 4 of us and family friendly too. Highly recommend to anyone visiting Taveuni! "

"Room, restaurant, diving, snorkeling- everything was perfect "

"Bure was great, staff and owners are great and go extra step to make sure everything is going well. Super wonderful stay and the lovely people really make this place shine. I've stayed here in the past several times with previous owners and it was wonderful then and its has not drop off at all. Loved the room, loved the restaurant and chef was very able to adopt to my allergy requirements. Food was excellent. Birds in the morning, stars at night, waves all the time. Fantastic. Can't wait to come back!"
