Monthly Rentals in Somosomo

An absolutely amazing experience staying at Sere Ni Ika. The location is perfect and the house itself has everything you need. The housekeeper, Loata, and her family were beautiful hosts and looked after our every need during our stay (including cleaning the house, changing the beds, doing our laundry). Loata cooked some lovely Fijian meals for us and helped to organise unique experiences for us (like cooking a traditional lovo!). Would definitely recommend staying at Sere Ni ika - we will be returning for sure!

The staff at Taveuni Island Resort were very friendly and welcoming. Storm and Raymond had the best suggestions for local activities and were very helpful in setting up these activities. The staff was very thorough when cleaning during our eating hours. The food there was amazing! Props to the chef because they made each dish on the spot! Storm, Raymond and the staff also provided a nice birthday surprise for my girlfriend which it more special!

A beautiful villa at the top of a steep hill above Maravu with great views across the strait. It was a great base for our trip - 3 couples. The pool is a great amenity to have particularly when it’s hot and humid. As mentioned in the listing, there is no air conditioning so it can get quite warm during the day but we found the fans in the bedrooms and the breeze at night to be quite effective so no issue for us. The bed linen and toiletries and towels provided were great and the kitchen is well stocked, the fridge full of bottled water was also very much appreciated. Whilst the meal plans were a convenient option, we only did one dinner through our hosts as my partner is from the island so we had family and friends to arrange food and preferred to go out etc. Tramonto at the bottom of the hill is a favourite of ours whenever we’re on the island, Dive Cafe is also a lovely spot to sit and relax with a coffee or food and Ria’s in Naqara for some local faves - cheaper than resorts too!

Where to begin? Our stay was idyllic. Ajay (driver, tour guide, and all-round great guy) picked us up at the airport, and Jay met us at our place. Jay was the most friendly, helpful, and accommodating host ever! He ensured we had everything we could ever want and answered all of our incessant questions. And our place was amazing! Two of us were in Raintree Cottage, and two in the neighboring Raintree Gardens. We made passionfruit-kumquat-mint mojitos from the fruit & herbs in the garden, enjoyed phenomenal snorkeling & kayaking just across the road, blissed out on ice cream & smoothies from the stand next door, and dined liked kings on fantastic Indian and Fijian dinners prepared with love by Ajay's wife. Adventures like diving, birdwatching, and horseback riding were easy to arrange and simply wonderful. It's hard not to sound like a brochure, but it really was out of this world. We loved every moment and simply can't wait to go back. Vinaka Jay, Shauna, and Ajay! Until next time!
