Holiday rentals in Savusavu

Such a wonderful space. A beautiful ocean view on a sand beach. the property is lush with many types of plants and grasses but very well maintained. Listening to the ocean crashing on the beach with the birds calling to each other while the frogs rumble out their welcome every evening is a wonderful way to wake in the morning. The pool is immaculate but the sea and long sandy shore is the big draw. The family is warm and welcoming. The home is a large studio with a lofted ceiling. There are windows with screens on every side to make use of the breeze and light. The extensive use of wood and art make the home feel cozy and very textured. The wrap around porch invites you to just hang out. There is a convenient outdoor shower so you don’t track sand into the house. This is simply a slice of paradise.

Checking in was incredibly easy. The apartment is bigger in person than it looked in the photos, nice surprise! Overall great stay.

The Airbnb has panoramic ocean views, modern, spacious and very comfortable. Close to town and Savusavu airport. This stay was hands down our favorite Airbnb my husband and I have stayed in overseas. The caretaker, Zakiiaazz, is who truly made our experience amazing. She went above & beyond to show us what Fiji is truly about. She drove us around town, cooked us traditional dinners, and made recommendation after recommendation of things to see and do while on the island. All this at a very affordable rate. We are already thinking of a return trip! We highly recommend this Airbnb.

Caring staff, beautiful location, would stay again and again

This was our second stay at Gecko Lodge. Totally exceeded our expectations once again. A very clean, peaceful and beautiful Airbnb. Thank you

Our stay at this Airbnb was nothing short of magical. Each day began with the joy of friendly dogs greeting us, adding a homely touch to our mornings. A short walk led us to a hidden gem—natural hot springs nestled in the landscape, offering a serene and rejuvenating experience. Daily beach walks became a cherished routine, with the sound of waves and the feel of sand underfoot providing the perfect start and end to our days. The accommodation itself was impeccable. The layout was thoughtfully designed, maximizing space and comfort. Modern appliances throughout the property ensured convenience, and the beds were exceptionally comfortable, guaranteeing restful nights. While the driveway posed a slight challenge for standard vehicles, it was a minor consideration given the overall experience. Any concerns were promptly addressed by the caretaker, who was incredibly accommodating and ensured our stay was seamless.

Stayed 2 weeks with family of 5 (8, 10, 13). Absolutely gorgeous location. Caretaker family made us feel very welcome with unexpected treats. Having sampled a few of the eating establishments in Savusavu you could do worse than coming to a private arrangement for Maopa to provide meals for you! The wild pig curry (trapped by Joe) was succulent and delicious. Kayaks saw a lot of use, kids loved chasing crabs, beach combing and walking out at low tide to discover the marine life. I was glad to have kitted everyone out with diving gloves because the kids can and will pick up anything and everything!! If you are prepared to walk out at low tide (aqua socks recommended) you can see so much coral and fish snorkelling off the point. The water is beautiful and warm, and you can still do everything even when it's raining as the rain is lovely and warm. The caretaker family has friendly dogs who will keep you company as you wander up and down the beach, cats, goats, pigs, chickens and a rooster I couldn't quite warm to as he insisted on crowing at inconvenient times 😉 The kids got into feeding the pigs all the organic waste, and I think everyone felt a wrench at leaving Scrappy behind. Waikona is a lovely place to stay and we will have fond memories of our time in Fiji. Note that this is the tropics, and that means there will be bugs. We had all the doors open to catch the beautiful breeze, but you'll want to close everything up before you turn on the lights inside. Turn off all lights at night and all will be well. Personal repellent a must. There is also no wifi at the house, best to get a local sim and data from town (about 7FJD / week) Also, be advised there is no taxi rank outside Savusavu airport, so best to contact Joe to arrange a taxi beforehand as it gets tricky to nab one given there's no single number to call for taxis. Waikona is about 30min away from Savusavu by car, so hiring a car is advised also. We used James Rental and can recommend it

Thank you to Clark for accepting my reservation. I only saw clark the first day. But the real star of the show was Delisa. She is the caretaker of the property and saying she went above and beyond doesn’t even begin to describe how much she did for me. She was attentive and caring. She even took me to her village! Keep in mind that you will need to rent a car if you stay here. (I did not know this before i came) Also the phone signal is in and out for phones that are not local. You must have all your arrangements made before you come bc you may have trouble communicating after you get there. I did. And was a little frustrated the first day. But after I got a car things worked out. The property is beautiful and the view is amazing. I highly recommend this property (as long as you have a car!)
