Great spot if you’re traveling to surf. Very well located, close to breaks, they provide all meals and there are a few bites to snack between meals. The place is always tidy and clean, lovely and respectful staff, highly recommended.

Cute place ideal for surfers - otherwise would not recommend

- This place is ideal if you surf, or if you’re simply looking to spend a few days somewhere quiet. - Considering the price (much lower than other hotels in the area) it's good value for money. - Our bungalow was very spacious with an amazing view. The comfort is fairly basic, but everything was clean. Overall, it’s a really charming place. - The staff is friendly, always greeting you and happy to help with any questions. - The swimming pool was clean and refreshing. - The meals were consistently tasty. Breakfast is quite simple, and for lunch and dinner you get one dish per meal. It’s a good idea to stop at the grocery store in Musket Cove beforehand to pick up a few extras, as some may find the portions a bit light.

I loved the beach being right outside the rooms. Lovely place, great staff and the kittens are beautiful. They really added to the charm seeing the kittens relax and play on the sand.

Perfect location, food & staff

Could not recommend funky fish enough. The best location, staff and the food was amazing. The best seafood we’ve ever had. We stayed in the funky huts and they were perfect, enough breeze to keep cool.

I simply want to say that the setting is idyllic. The little houses are perfect for two people, with an incredible setting.

It's still not bad, except for some unpleasant moments.

This is a beautiful and cozy place right on the shore - from the bungalow to the water is literally 20 meters. Not bad food (although sometimes the portions were small and the breakfasts were quite modest). Everything is done very simply, but quite well-groomed.

Amazing location, close to castaway island, cloud 9 bar, mainland and all the surf spots. I wish I would have read more reviews prior to booking but I kind of knew what I’d be getting to be honest.

Started badly but in the end we loved it and will be back!

Location. Proximity to surf breaks. Ease of getting to resort from airport. Size of resort. Relaxed vibe. After a shakey start they catered for my gluten free needs very well.

Wonderful atmosphere and great family feel.

Super friendly staff and great community atmosphere. Yummy plainish food. Local style. Nice walk up the hill and around the rocks.

Perfect for people who want to do daily surf tours. If you don't surf probably not enough to do unless you take boats out daily to visit other islands

Perfect surf getaway. Rustic, comfortable and good value

Rustic and lovely location for a surfing getaway. Staff were great and arranged daily surfing excursions. Hike was also brilliant. Cabins were basic but clean and very comfortable.

Beautiful beachfront bure stay with friendly staff! With "retreat" vibes as all food included!

2 nights in a beachfront bure! • Check-in process: As the boat came in, they welcomed us with a song! Was smooth, our room wasnt ready on arrival, but checked in us in early and gave us an alternate room until our room was ready! • Decent breaky, lunch and dinner. Music entertainment during dinner and very happy staff! They can accommodate dietary needs - e.g. vegetarian/vegan etc. if you prior request/ask. • Communication: Very friendly and helpful staff.. although you need to be quite direct with any questions/queries you have and clearly ask for the solution, and follow up if needed.. as it's very chill Island life ;) • Cleanliness: clean and well-kept rooms and general areas • Amenities: Wi-Fi only worked in common areas, not in rooms. Great pool, chillout seating, sunbeds and dining areas, bar on site (doesn't open too late though!) • Location: Beautiful location on Malolo Island, didnt explore surrounding areas as was a short stay • Comfort: Comfy bed, good shower, nice pleasant and private bure with little beachfront seating area out front • Good value for money Would defo stay again.

Budget choice near the surf

Just stayed for 10 days in a cloud break room up the hill with aircon which was much appreciated as it’s so hot. The bura on the beach don’t have aircon and are hot Food is included. I’m vegetarian and there was zero protein apart from the eggs at breakfast. If you have dietary requirements I’d suggest buying food to bring over with you to accomodate. We also took snacks It’s laid back and running on Fiji time. Things don’t work like they do at home but that is Fiji Lots of mozzies so take a lot of repellent We went to surf for 10 days. Take everything with you if that is what you’re planning. Take your own board as it’s very hard to get one there. Take your own wax. Take everything you need for surfing You are remote and stuck in the resort without accesss to anything to buy The staff aren’t surfers so they don’t know about the conditions. They don’t provide anything for you surf wise while you’re there apart from the boat going out It’s a budget option near the surf that’s easy to get to. Don’t expect high end. The staff were nice

the island of this resort is nice, the surfspots are good, but the management of funky fish is horrible.

there are a few things one should know, before booking this resort: - the management is really bad, I had to catch the ferry and waited half an hour for the receptionist to show up for the check out - whenever you booked a boat for the surftrip it was late - oftentimes up to an hour late, and it wouldn’t improve during our stay, people ended up organising their own boat transfers - if you‘re not surfing, there is not much to do on the island if you’re still considering to book, definetly go for the 7- day surf package even if you’re staying shorter, I booked 5 days as i was leaving earlier and ended up paying more than my friends with the 7 days package deal (because they charge you for every single boat transfer).
