Explored a little, relaxed a lot!
This property is exactly as described in the listing. As a couple who enjoy cooking for each other we were pleased that the kitchen was well equipped for making both kaiviti and kaivalagi style dishes. Hosts Lisa and Roy shared their knowledge of where to get local ingredients and provided us coconuts (complete with grater) and fresh herbs from their beautiful tropical garden! We were far enough away from Savusavu town to feel peaceful and secluded but close enough for convenient shopping, pearl farm tour, snorkeling at Split Rock and checking out the busy Saturday fish and produce market. Lisa set up the initial taxi transfer for us from the airport and then gave us Vinod's direct number to use for the rest of our stay. He was so prompt and available it was like having a personal driver! The beach is very private and the gradual sandy slope makes it nice for swimming. The walk to the beach is pleasant going downhill and a little slower coming back up in the heat of the day. After a couple of times we got used to looking forward to enjoying the breeze out on the deck overlooking the water after our walk. Overhead fans inside the bure and out on the deck (as well as AC in the bedroom) provide plenty of options for cooling off since it was still hot and humid during our April stay. Wifi worked great and decent local cell reception when needed. This was a great tropical getaway spot and exactly what we had hoped for our two week vacation.

Fantastic cottage
Roy and Lisa are the best hosts! This property checks all the boxes that make a vacation great. The house had all amenities: kitchen fully equipped to make meals, ac in bedroom to provide comfort on hot afternoons and evenings, entertainment Center with an incredible selection of movies and music upon request, fans in every room, kayaks available for use. Lisa and Roy were so helpful with providing advice and recommendations for making our stay a wonderful experience. They arranged taxi to meet us at the airport, stocked the refrigerator with some food, dropped off fruit and gave some helpful hints.

Extremely Comfortable in Real Fiji
Everything from confirmation to Kava. Lisa and Roy are amazing and they made our time on Savusavu so much better. We were provided with a taxi from the airport and connections for diving and site seeing. Beautiful views from the deck to the Bay and a short quarter mile walk down a hill to the water. Cannot recommend highly enough. BULA

Our favourite part of our Fiji trip
Thank you so much for your hospitality Lisa and Roy. Our little family of three enjoyed your home thoroughly. The house was clean and included everything for a comfortable stay. We were treated to fresh produce from the garden and lots of helpful advice on everything you need to know locally. The house is set on a gorgeous property, with a wrap around balcony and ocean views. We loved taking lazy naps out on the daybed and sleeping through the night with all the doors and windows open. Thank you for making our little one’s first holiday so enjoyable :)

Sekawa Beach Cottage
Lisa and Roy, your hosts at the Sekawa Beach guest cottage will astonish you with their care and thoughtfulness! Lisa was available to answer all our many questions and suggest day trips. She organized our airport transportation to Savusavu, with a stop for groceries, a visit to the farmers market and the liquor store, as well a SCUBA dive in pristine Natewa Bay. Their guest house is a lovely spot set a little ways up the hill from Sekawa Beach. The house is meticulously cared for and has everything you will need to make your stay comfortable. If you want peace and quiet, surrounded by tropical beauty, it’s perfect. Their well maintained grounds and surrounding flowers, plants and trees will make you think you are in a tropical paradise. Every morning Lisa left two fresh hibiscus for us to enjoy. The beach (about a 10 minute walk) is a beautiful hard packed sand beach which you basically have to yourself. It is great for walking or running at low tide. Occasionally, you will meet Fijians who greet you with a smile and Bula. Lisa and Roy have like new single person kayaks, which you can use to kayak out to snorkel on a buoyed reef about 750 metres offshore and to paddle down the meandering Sekawa River, which is close by. Lisa also organized a trip for us with a local guide Micah to see a village and a beautiful waterfall, and also to take us to Split Rock to snorkel. Micah had fresh coconuts ready to eat and drink when we finished. He then showed us the hot pools in Savusavu where the locals cook their meals. Interesting. Roy and Lisa performed a Kava ceremony for us teaching us how to pound the root and then prepare the powder for drinking by steeping the powder in a double lined mixing bag (saree material) with water and kneading the bag in their Tanoa bowl. The kava solution is stirred with a bili bowl and served with a beautiful Taki (a coconut shell server). The ceremony and the drink is relaxing and was the perfect time to visit and get acquainted. Sauvsauv is about a 20 minute drive to the guest house by taxi or local bus ,when you need groceries or want to go to dine out. Surf and Turf served us a delicious meal and the Captain's Table receives good recommendations. By the end of our 10 days we felt like family. Highly recommended and more!

A wonderful paradise found
If you enjoy getting away from the hustle and bustle of the city or … Denarau… consider this cottage stay off the beaten track. Cooking fresh market vegetables from Savusavu, swimming in the sea every day, relaxing on the veranda watching birds in the tropical garden …. To top all of the physical attributes off, your hosts will astonish you with care and thoughtfulness. Lisa is a treasure who is always on hand to answer questions and suggest day trips. We are already planning our return to this piece of paradise found.

Beautiful pristine location
My family has been traveling the world for a year and this is the most beautiful, unspoiled beach location we've seen. Most beaches are already built up with hotels and condos, but this is just a few houses, placed in such a way that the view is unobstructed, and beautiful untouched rain forest. If you are looking for nightlife right outside your door it's not here, but if you want peace and nature it's perfect. Savusavu is only about a 20 minute drive so even though you're in nature you're not far from shopping and restaurants. There are plenty of fun activities and day trips within a short drive, and Lisa is very helpful in giving advice and even putting you in contact with the right people. This is a huge help because online information isn't completely updated in this area and people seem to use phone connection rather than email. So definitely a good place to accept the help of local folks rather than trying to organize everything yourself. Lisa organized our airport transportation with a wonderful driver. We ended up using him for all our trips to Savusavu and he became a guide and a friend, even watching our kids at the park while we were grocery shopping. Lisa organized a trip for us with a local guide Micah to see a village and a beautiful waterfall, and also the most amazing snorkeling trip we've ever had with another contact of hers. We did another day trip with Parmesh to see a botanical garden and a sustainable cacao farm. Lisa and Parmesh recommended we add a stop at a hot spring which I had written off due to outdated information found online, but it was definitely worth seeing and another good reason to use local expertise. On days we didn't leave the property, we were still busy exploring the huge garden and the beach. Lisa and Roy let us use their kayaks and transported them for us, and even organized a Fijian cooking lesson and meal with a local woman as our teacher. We had great educational and cultural experiences without having to go anywhere. Would definitely recommend this location for Worldschoolers, vacationing families, or couples. The house is well equipped and very comfortable, with good airflow so we didn't even need AC. Only one bedroom, but arranged cleverly so we didn't feel at all crowded as a family of four. Really can't say enough good things about this stay.
