Pros:

Amazing staff! Everyone is lovely and make you feel apart of their community and traditions. There were amazing coral reefs around the island and we spent many hours snorkelling. We went reef shark snorkelling which was so cool, the sunrise hike to the top of the island was also magical, the best views we had during our trip. Could not recommend Waya Lailai enough!

Pros:

The greatest place to stay on the Yasawa islands, great people, great food and lovely accommodation.
Great water front for snorkelling and the hammocks are fabulous.
Really enjoyed the cava ceremony night and the snorkelling with reef sharks. We had a great time!
If you expect what it says - limited electricity, Wi-Fi etc you will not be disappointed with your beautiful surroundings and the little things that make this place a great stay.

Pros:

Wir hatten eine wunderbare Woche. Super Essen, tolle Lage, wunderschöner Strand, selten so nett und liebevoll aufgenommen worden, alle Touren waren absolut die Zusatzkosten wert, herrliche Massage, top Wäscheservice und unglaublich liebevoller Umgang mit unserem 5-jährigen Sohn. Ein kurzer authentischer Einblick in das Leben auf den Fijis hat uns riesige Freude gemacht und unsere Erwartungen definitiv übertroffen. Die Musik nehmen wir im Herzen mit nach Hause.

Cons:

Nix

Right at Home in the Yasawa Islands!
Pros:

Waya Lailai Eco Haven was the perfect place for us to stay during our first few days in Fiji. We felt instantly welcomed by the staff, from the moment our driver picked us up from the Nadi airport through to when the staff showed us to our bure. During our stay, we enjoyed a guided snorkeling trip, a guided village visit, and a guided hike, as well as delicious, plentiful, nutritious meals. Highly recommend.

Cons:

More evening activities, like organized games or stargazing or beach walks or something.

Pros:

Fabulous breakfast. All the meals were really good -loved all the fruit that was offered at each meal.

Cons:

My only complaint was at the very end of both beach was quite a lot of rubbish, especially outside the village right at the fire rocks on the very south side. But apart from that everything was really clean and lovely.

Pros:

The location and the activities (i did the reef sharks snorkeling, the sunset summit hike and the Sunday church services) were amazing. The staff are all locals, from the village next door, which makes your stay authentic and ideal to experience a bit of the real Fiji. Everyone is so welcoming and making you feel like family (a special thanks to Mosi for all the stories and the great hike!) Food was great, which a couple of options each time. Only thing to note is to bring some water if you can - you will get some at lunch and dinner, but otherwise you’ll be asked to buy bottles.
Absolutely recommend it.
