Don’t book via Hotels.com
Pros:

DO NOT BOOK YOUR STAY ON HOTELS.COM. They will not have your reservation when you show up. Luckily the host is very accommodating and found room for me (I had to stay one night at the next door resort though). Overall, this is a very social, friendly, active resort. If you’re looking for a fancy hotel with hot water this is not the place for you. But there was so much to do (diving, snorkeling, fishing, hiking). Met great people and had great food. Would recommend but just do not book via hotels.com

Pros:

Great food. The place could do with an upgrade to the general infrastructure with improvements to buildings, stairs, walkways etc and a general cleanup.

Pros:

Very nice accommodation, especially for a small budget. Staff was always friendly and helpful. Food was good but I preferred Fijian dishes instead of the international meals.
Large reef directly at the beach. Reef shark snorkelling is an absolute recommendation and scuba diving with Sau from the island‘s diving school Yasawa Tropical Diver as well.
The Sunrise / Sunset hike is great, too.
Our Bure was clean and well maintained, it even had mosquito nets.
Food price is 80 FJD/day, meals are served buffet style.

I would absolutely recommend to stay at Waya Lailai.

Excellent place to stay.
Pros:

Wayalailai is a great place. Its lunch was better than Barefoot Manta.
Avoid staying a Sunday because there are no activities.
We snorkled with reef sharks, but would have scuba if Dive Master was present. We stayed 2 nights.

Nice Bure and Good Food
Pros:

The bure was nice and clean, and the food was really good. However, the internet here is very weak, so if you need reliable internet for work, there are better options available.
The staff was nice, but not as friendly as at other resorts or homestays.
Note: We came to this island to swim with the sharks, but unfortunately, they don't offer any activities on Sundays.

Unglaublich warmherzige Menschen
Pros:

Einfache Unterkunft aber unglaublich warmherziger Angestellte, die sich sehr um einen bemühen und kümmern, schnell den Namen kennen und mir immer das Gefühl gaben willkommen zu sein bei Freunden.
Die Hütten sind einfach mit Doppelbett und zwei Einzelbetten ausgestattet, einem tragbaren Fan, der nur lief, wenn es Strom gab. Essen wurde zusammen eingenommen und war immer reichhaltig und abwechslungsreich. Es gab Ringe Aktivitäten und abends immer Tanz, Kava und Gesang.
