Hotels in Nadi - Prices and Reviews

Today we went to Tau Village. We began by meeting with the chief of the village for a kava ceremony. It is how they welcome us to work with their village. It was interesting. The chief makes the kava in front of you and each person takes a turn taking some by clapping once, saying "bula!" and then drinking the kava in one gulp, then everyone cla...

We woke up late and had breakfast. We took lots of leaflets from the tour office in the hotel, borrowed the Fiji guide and sat on the beach out the back of the hotel to read them. We had not planned anything for Fiji, and as we are only here for 6 days, we did not buy a guide book. The beach had murky sea and dark sand. We sat there and planned ...

Well we're just about to leave Fiji now after about ten days of chilling out and relaxing. It's been everything and more than we expected. We've actually been quite active really, well more than I thought we would have been anyway. We've been snorkeling, diving, snorkeling with sharks, played volleyball, played rugby (more intense than we though...

Bernie Tomorrow we leave Fiji. Perhaps never to return, who knows. Although I have enjoyed Fiji I feel happy and ready to leave, the temperature is abit too much here. I leave Fiji with more questions than I arrived with, such as "Why are Fijian people fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan for a Government in which they have no democratic say?" (Appa...

After travelling on three planes to get here, we were so happy to get to sunny Nadi. We had organised a (free) transfer with our hotel so leaving the airport was a breeze, I think this is the way to go, even if you have to pay for it, it makes arriving at a new (and often completely mad) destination a delight reather than terryifing!! Our hotel ...

ah Fiji Fiji Fiji - cool to be back here again although it really is a fleeting visit - kinda planned it wrong, was expecting to have a couple of days here at least but forgot about crossing the international date line and have ended up being here for only one full day and to top it all its a Sunday when town isn't open and there are no buses an...

Fiji Well, boat had to move on to Tonga (Vava'u) so was stranded in Fiji for 5 days waiting on a flight. Went on an small tour, which was somewhat interesting, but not really my cup of tea. Then stayed at a place called Walu beach. Cheapish resort on the island of Mololo. The Fijians are exceptionally friendly people, and this made the place for...

A night in Fiji, 24 mozzie bites and a sore head in the morning after too many beers. A stop over night in Nadi which is a bit of a dirty dive to be honest. I arrived at 8pm and headed to the bar for a few local beers. There was an island dancing night on at the bar I went to so was persuaded to get up with the ladies shaking their rear ends lik...

BULA! The blogs back!, So Clare and I have come to realize that we are now at the beginning of the end........of our trip! Our six months of gallivanting round the southern hemisphere are coming to a close but what a great three weeks we have lined up cruising round the best beaches and islands that the South Pacific has got to offer. First stop...

Alright, we are truly rolling with the story now. Last off we hadn't even left northern California. Once we closed up our house we spent a night in Campbell (Deb's folks), 6 hours on the road south, with a short stop in Claremont (Mitch's folks) before hitting LAX. Our parents were most gracious and patient as we slammed through both ports of ca...
