Do not stay here! Firstly the property weren’t amenable in getting us to the hostel, they were aware we were on the south sea ferry and instead of getting us on their boat they informed us to go to Malolo island resort, we then waited an hour for them to come on their boat which never turned up so we had to pay the island resort to take us 10 minutes around the corner on their boat. The manager then made out that it was a funny accident and didn’t acknowledge we’d been waiting an hour knowing we were stranded as his guests. The beach bungalow was disgusting, the bathroom and shower facilties were actually better than the room (that’s saying something). There was lizards and mosquitoes in the room all night, we are aware we were staying on a small island however the next island we moved to (early I must add) so we could get away from Funky fish had no mosquitoes to be seen in the room and they provided all appropriate nets etc and curtains in the room. We have been travelling round Asia and never been bitten so badly over one night in Funky fish’s beach bungalow (we have stayed in similar beach bungalows before). The generator was right behind us so also very noisy. Food was standard, not bad for the price but didn’t help the experience. No paddle boards to use as all the paddles were broken, there was only 1 kayak with 1 ore as the other was broken. No snorkelling equipment to use. The whole place needs a lot of TLC and renovations. We left early and as quickly as we could!

Great: staff, pool/deck/eating area, beds, rooms simple, but clean. Quiet and restful. Nice water and not a bad place to visit a few other islands from on day trips.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Our stay at funky fish was very disappointing. It was nearly impossible to get any information or help from the staff and you feel stuck here because the manager controls all your boat transfers and that's the only way to do anything. My wife was served a moldy wrap on our second day for lunch and the staff acted like they knew it was moldy. The rooms are very minimal and the sheets had stains. The main common area wasn't enjoyable either because all the chairs and the pool felt dirty. If the surf conditions don't look good at tavarua, don't stay here under any condition.

Funky Fish was a great property to travel to while in Fiji. Great price point that includes all meals which I thought were good. Beautiful beach and pool area. Staff are friendly and helpful. Rooms are simple but has everything you need especially when you will be spending most of your time in the common areas. I felt safe travelling alone here. There is a good hike to a nice viewpoint above the resort as well. The one thing that could be improved is communication around boat transfers to/from the island. Be aware that you may end up going to multiple stops before you stop at funky fish if you book through them - which was fine but good to be aware as it added an extra hour and a half onto the journey which wasn’t communicated very well.
