I booked 3 rooms here because our group of 6 had a day to spend near Nadi before a 10 pm flight home. It was the best best choice i could have made. Definitely a 3 star hotel but the location was perfect - right on the beach but also very near Nadi. My family of 6 was able to find space to do what they wanted. Staff were helpful. The rooms were basic but clean. The pool was out of commission but luckily this hotel is owned by the Ramada Inn next door - complete with pool, children's pool and small playground. Club 56 on the 6th floor of the Ramada Inn is a gem. Great food and a spectacular view. We kept a family room for the last day which was perfect. Gave us access to the hotel and we could all clean up before a late flight Great location.

Our superior room didn't have windows you could see out of. Frosted windows looking onto the Ramada Inn. I'd rather have clear windows even if I am looking at the Ramada Inn.

The staff are warm hearted, so helpful. We couldn’t get contact with our next day’s hotel, couldn’t find the suitable transportation, they gave us a lot of help. Facilities are good as this price, food is okay, good value

Some machine noise in the night

Nice that it has a restaurant and the most sweet girl works there! Good views over the ocean and okay rooms! Also very easy to make friends :)

The reception told us no buses go on Sunday so we would book an expensive taxi to the coral coast. The reality is that buses do go.. I don't like that they want to make money and not tell us the correct info. Also a guy at the restaurant told my friend she could throw her sigaret on the beach instead of giving her an ashtray... Not okay! Also too much plastic in the restaurant.

The a/c was actually cold in the room, the bathroom is inside the dorm room, true beach front, friendly staff, in house ATM

The internet is not good

Staff were really helpful, especially the ladies who worked on the tours counter in reception. Lovely outdoor area on the beach. We stayed on half price pizza night which was a bonus. Close to a supermarket, restaurant and other hotels. Very large and comfortable bed.

No bottled water in the room, a couple of complimentary bottles would’ve been great after a long journey to Fiji. The WiFi was patchy at times. Very basic but had everything we needed with lovely staff to help :)

Fine for a night before or after the islands. I was in a 14 bed girls dorm which was less than 1/3 full so full capacity could be abit intense. The dorm bathroom had 2 showers and toilets so not just a tiny bathroom which was good. No key but 24hr reception which the room was next to so east access. Nice staff Handy with the restaurant/ bar and local supermarket . No signs of bed bugs like mentioned in nearby accom

Bathroom was very flooded - hopefully from the showers and nothing else but quite dangerous / skippy when walking through

Amazing location to get from the airport, and onto the port for island transfers. The food is great, it's clean and right on the beach. Joane is an absolute star! She helped us book all of our ferries for Island hopping and worked out the cheapest way to travel etc, advised me about local markets, and when I accidentally left my bank cards and keys in the hotel, she had someone bring them to the airport for me before I flew home to London! She is such a credit to the hotel! We stayed here before and after Island hopping and she was just so lovely - thanks so much for a lovely stay! If you're looking for somewhere lovely and friendly to stay before or after your Island hopping, this is the place! Ella and Jo x

Wasn't sure what to expect as it had been 11 years since i had been to Wailoaloa beach. To get away from the resorts of Denarau and chill for a couple of days was amazing. Supermarket at the end of the street, everything you need including beer and wine and spirit if you want to pay, bar menu restaurants all the way along the "strip". Gorgeous dogs that belong to who knows. Water shoes would be a good addition to your packing as this is rural fiji and lots of "stuff along the beach walk" Smugglers cleans and rakes its beach each morning. It is a shallow bay so you will not have yellow sand a blue green water, however the water is an amazing temp if you decide to go in and if you venture out you will get past the turning sand at the water front. But hey its FIJI. FOH staff were great and nothing was a problem.

ITS FIJI whats not to like. personally more water bowls with fresh water for the local dogs would be excellent. we were told the dogs knew where the water bowls were but we never saw a single one. We had a gorgeous dog drinking from our cupped hands, so i do feel that this would be a great addition to Smugglers Cove. Concrete bowls so they dont become more rubbish.

Location is great, and the common area (dining hall, beachfront bar and restaurant, pool) is beautiful, very well maintained. The room condition was not that great but definitely good value for the money. Compared to other hotels I stayed around Fiji, staff service is mediocre.

The AC in the dorm room was not reliable, it was on but power was off for a long time so it did not work for a long time. The room is crazy hot without the AC on. There were quite a bit of coachroaches crawling around bathroom / shower area. The room smells bad and very dark due to having no windows and packed with people in it.

The room was a good size, the bed was comfortable and the pillows were plush. The room also stayed nice and dark as we slept till about 10:30am. Lovely beach bar/dining area and amazing to be able to walk straight out on to the beach. Staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. They were even kind enough to give us a late check-out since we only arrived at 5am (had a long layover between flights). Definitely would recommend if you're looking for a good hotel that won't cost you an arm & a leg. :)
