Super familiär, klasse "Host-Mutter" mit Familie, anderen Einheimischen und einigen Tieren, authentisches Essen (das Beste das wir seit Langem gegessen haben). Wenn die Türen des Dorms geöffnet waren konnte man direkt aufs Meer schauen - keine Klima o.Ä., dafür keine Fensterscheiben (nur Muskito-Netze) - sorgt für einen klasse Durchzug. Der Weg zur Blue Lagoon dauert ca. 25 Minuten - geht aber mit Flip-Flops. Wäscheleinen um Wäsche aufzuhängen (Wäscheklammern gibt es vor Ort). vergleichsweise günstige Aktivitäten, wobei Schnorchelzubehör auch kostenfrei geliehen werden kann Strom gibt es untertags nur um das Handy zu laden (wenn trotzdem mal was anderes geladen werden muss, macht es die Host-Mutter in der Küche möglich) - sonst gibt es genug Steckdosen um zwischen 18:00 und 21:00 Uhr Taschenlampen und Co. laden zu können.

Spülung bei den Toiletten funktionierte nur bedingt und die Duschen sehen sehr heruntergekommen aus (nicht jedermanns Sache - sind dafür aber sauber, war für uns deshalb kein Problem)

I loveeeeed my stay here!! The people were so friendly and the island was beautiful! The beds were good and the food was great too!

Amazing island , the snorkeling is absolutely beautiful and the views are insane ! Mini market near to the homestay and beautiful trekking around the island ! Great !

Food was great and cheap! Cat was amazing,

some lounge chairs would be great as they only had 1, cold showers

Amazing homestay! The food was delicious! Our cute yellow house above the beach had just everything we needed and beautiful view! Location was also perfect - like 15/20min walk to Blue Lagoon. Thank you for everything Lice and Jo!

Lots of options for walking to different locations, good activities around.

It was exactly what I was looking for.

it’s one of the best homestay i ve been in the yasawa! rooms are clean and tidy, meals are fresh made and rich. lots of different hikes to go all around the island and Blue Lagoon is easily accessible by feet, take your mask for some good snorkeling!

Affordable place to switch off for a few days.

Food portions were small and food was very basic. The reality of how Fijians feed themselves in the modern day is quite sad and lacking in nutrition. You get to understand why diabetes is a big problem in the pacific islands. Some meals like the fried fish were very nice but others mostly disappointing. We had mouse/ rat poop on the sink in our room and the shower was very dirty with hair of previous guests everywhere. Bed was a bit small and uncomfortable but ok for the price we paid. Staff were distant and seemed to not be interested in guests.

This was a fantastic stay!! we had the best time ever at sunrise lagoon homestay. we stayed in a little hut right by the sea and we could hear the waves as we drifted off to sleep. The food was yummy and the portions were big. We enjoyed local fish, chicken, rice and vegetables. We also enjoyed learning the Bula! dance after dinner, playing with the cute dogs and playing with Eema. The homestay is a 15 minute walk from the lagoon and shop and it is a stunning walk of lush green vegetation, palm trees and sea views. You can walk up to the platform in the evening for sunset or at night to see the stars! We loved sunrise lagoon everyone was so friendly and we also met some other amazing travellers. what a fabulous experience!

We loved everything but we would have maybe liked some more fruit at breakfast.

Nice to stay in a local family and share with them their daily routine. The place is amazing, calm and relaxing. The activity are easy and cheap. Very recommended

Good insight into a local island community, basic but had everything that we needed. Flexible to accomodate our needs during the stay. Tasty food and very helpful staff. Thanks to Lice for sharing her piece of paradise!

The activies are a bit basic compared to the resorts, with less guidance and a bit rogue.

The host (Lise) is the best, very welcoming and funny!! She will get for you everything you need and always with a big smile! Good homemade food as well, and pig portions! Go to the tea house next to it and take a massage, cheap and really good!! In the other side of the island there is the blue lagoon beach with a bar and shop were you can chill and see the sunset with a cocktail! Sunrise is in the beach right in fornt of the homestay, so wake up early and don’t miss it!! Forget about resort comodities, this is the real Fijian experience!!

great host, beautiful island, home cooked meals, great ambience, music and lovely people

nothing

dirt, bathroom in really bad condition! usable beach 30 minutes on foot.

really nice and friendly. having the blue lagoon and Lo’s Tea Shop just a short walk away is great!! The food was really good!!

Una the manager was mega helpful and approachable

Beautiful location! And great day trips on offer each day, lots of things to keep you busy! Staff were very friendly and happy to help. Definitely recommend getting a donut from Lo’s down the beach!

Nothing really - they clearly state that it’s a homestay not a resort and that’s what you get. Very good value for money.

That staff were friendly and the food was great. I liked how they put mosquito coils in the room overnight. Staying there had a personable feel. The location was great with things to do.

The beds weren't the most comfortable in the dorms but I was fine.

Great location looking out to the sea, the room felt clean and comfortable, they provided all the necessary equipment.

Amazing welcoming family on a beautiful island. Lovely home cooked meals and only a short walk from the stunning blue lagoon. Dogs are awesome!

really good homestay, Lice make you feel like home. really good food and nice family. I will definitely recommend it.

Was so nice!! Best homestay you can do in Fiji!!

Nothing

If you want a real Fiji experience, you got to stay in a home stay. You will be part of Fijian life, habits and culture! The family at Sunrise Lagoon Homestay is lovely, food was simple but amazingly cooked by Lice! Yummy, healthy and fresh! They got dogs, puppies, cats, chickens, it was a blast playing with them and the kids! I totally recommend this lovely home and will definitely come back!!!

Everything!

Beautiful location, friendly and welcoming staff. i rose early every morning and enjoyed sunrise views from the beach. observant guests get an idea of how much work it is to operate and maintain island accommodation: it seemed like all of the extended family including children contributed their labour, in the kitchen, laundry, helping with boats and guest events and trips.

the place is “as advertised” —you are clearly told this is not a resort—so it met my expectations. Accommodation (in the dorm) is basic. I didn’t see inside the bures (which are perched up over the seashore) but I guess the view and feel from inside would be pretty great.

Beautiful area, cute animals and very friendly and helpful people.Deliciouss food & good serving sizes. Lots of activities. Comfortable bed & room.

Nothing - everything was great!

Lice and her family welcomed us so nicely. The room is spacious and clean. Her food is superb; i love every single meal she cooked. The breakfast is very simple but nice (freshly baked bread!) The location is great as well - there is a tea house nearby, a little beautiful hike over the island, somedays accessible to the famous blue lagoon. Such a nice stay. We will be back.

It's tropical so bring the mosquito repellant!
