Yadua Bay Resort & Villas

Nice clean rooms with lovely views Meals at the restaurant are very reasonable priced Very affordable accommodation especially considering its only a few minutes walk to the beach Great spot for relaxing by the pool and taking in the scenery and enjoying the good food

Only booked for 1 night for 2 adults 2 children thank goodness. Greeting when arrived was not to welcoming. Room only had 2 towels on arrival, as it says check in is 2pm to make sure the room is prepared for your needs. Bottom sheet of bed was more like a half sheet. Jug filthy Inside. Food from restaurant disappointing. Garlic bread $8.50. It was 5 normal pieces of sliced bread with an overload of garlic and soggy. Fish and chips looked sad. They have to many options on the menu so the result is poor quality food. Had inclusive breakfast but practically a half serve of a cooked breakfast which consisted of 5 wedges, scrambled eggs, slightly cooked.toast a small slice of banana, pawpaw and pineapple.. For a small resort it has so much potential but has a long way to go.

Firstly the place is pronounced Endoa locally The place is extremely quiet and feels unfinished with unfinished buildings around and a very long unsealed driveway full of giant potholes. There are no activities at all aside from the pool table which you have to pay for, and the pool and beach. We don't believe you can rent or borrow any gear for snorkelling or kayaking or anything like that. Beach towels and extra blankets are available if you ask (the rooms don't come with any. The snorkelling is really fantastic with a lot of beautiful coloured fish everywhere, however you probably should go at high tide as the water is shallow and the coral is quite high off the sand. There were many cats, and the usual toads around, and some puppies, horses and cows in neighbouring properties. The resort driveway is right across the road from a school and a factory where coconut wood furniture is made. The staff were relatively friendly but on the whole very subdued and quiet compared to what we have experienced elsewhere in Fiji. The reception staff had to keep asking a manager(?) hiding off to one side behind some glass everything. We never saw the manager as far as we know so that was a bit awkward. The complimentary breakfast is the Sunrise Breakfast and we all got it including our 2 year old son for free without any issues. It is 2 eggs, a drink, 2 pieces of butter and marmalade toast, 4 pieces of potato, and 2 pieces of fruit of the day. We also had dinner at the restaurant a lot. A few comments: The curry was great value for money (a lot of components), the fried rice was nice but v oily, the garlic bread is LITERALLY sliced bread. Sometimes they bring out complimentary hot bread rolls which is fabulous and makes a big difference to the overall experience. We found that quite often a component of your meal is forgotten so it pays to check everything arrives (E.g. fruit, salad etc). The one highchair was broken the entire time we were there. We had no issues with the $50 key bond being returned as credit off our final bill. The pool is remarkably clean however the pool tiles are falling off in droves and really need replacing. It makes the pool area look really unloved and the tiles are a hazard slipping in the bottom of the pool. External guests are allowed to come to Yadua but ironically are unable to use the pool... We found the pool much colder than the beach. There is also a toddler pool. There is quite a good little convenience store down the end of the road that is worth checking out for snacks, bread, drinks, etc. They sell some limited snorkelling gear and souvenirs too. There is a Mexican themed cafe there too but we found the value for money was better at Yaduas restaurant.

Pathetic service No fence No car park security(Guest to park at their own responsibility at their car park as per the notice) No music (Very silent, seems ******* and suspicious every-time we came out of room. Lights gets off by 10pm around the premises Wifi connectivity very weak No proper lights in room No proper blankets Very silent place cant go by the beach side because its someone else’s private property Everything is basically pathetic!!!!!

My husband and I just spent a beautiful week at this fantastic place! Such a quiet beautiful spot with the most friendly and helpful staff. If you are looking to check out and relax this is the place. It’s very private and secluded and depending on when you go it’s possible to see very few people :) The resort is quite new - a diamond! Whilst this not an all inclusive 5 star proposition it was absolutely perfect for us. We we definitely be back and hope to bring our family. There is a small supermarket very close by for supplies and lovely walks. The generosity of the staff will not be forgotten.

Was expecting something nice but this by far is worse than a motel. Entrance to the room is a rocky pathway which isnt ideal and a hazard. There is full kitchen without proper cutleries/microwave, exposed fridge wire. No spare blankets/pillows, only a sheet to use overnight. Found old poo stains in toilet, hair in sink, no wifi in villas, small pool, even after discussing the cleanliness with the manager he had an attitude. The pictures look better then the place itself and it wasn't the travel time and 450/night. They also have a no refund policy that isn't mentioned anywhere. Will never recommend to anyone.

We really enjoyed our 2 night stay. This place is quiet and remote. If we didn't book other places we would have stayed longer. The pool is big and we all swam daily. The beach is around the corner but has rocky corals. Lots of people swam there while we were there but we enjoyed the pool because our 8 year old who wanted to swim there more. The rooms are clean and the housekeeping staff are very attentive. The view at night was of a clear starry night. The restaurant food is good and requires a bit of patience (island time) because there is 1 chef. The desserts are yummy (banana fritters, coconut snowball, deep fried ice cream). The chili garlic prawns are spicy and very tasty. The breakfast and pancakes start the day nicely. We will definitely go back. If you are going to Fiji, don't miss going to this place.

Check in to start with, no assistance unloading or taking bags to upstairs rooms, after check in it began to rain and the tiles around/walkway are so slippery even at the steps. Manged to spend the night. At breakfast we were 2 adults and 2 kids, they said breakfast is for 2 adults only and kids meals need to be bought. Upon inquiry at the reception she advised its from the directors to give 2 meals per room irrespective of number of guest in room. Most resorts in fiji have kids eat for free policy and this resort is vise versa. Resort has no wifii and some internet availibility is at only at dinning area. Rooms do not have vodafone network coverage so everytime u need to make a call u need to move out into open area or car parks to make a call. I do not recommend this resort to anyone.

We went for 1 night over the weekend as Birthday treat for my daughter. Location wise it is very beautiful and quiet.There were other 3-4 families apart from us. Pool is big and spacious with slide pool which is for kids only. We checked in at around 3pm.There was no one to assist with our bags to the room as there was only 1 attendant at reception. The room was hot and stinking as it had been closed. The AC was set at 24°C and the remote given to us was not even working. We were only given 1 room card and it so happens that as soon as you remove the card light and AC goes off. Which means when we went for swimming we had to take the card and AC goes off and as a result we come to a hot stinking room. My husband went to request for a second card so that we cold go for dinner and AC can be left on,which was given upon request and I wonder why 2 cards were not given at checkin. We return to the room after dinner after 9pm trying to sort out the AC remote which we had to try 4 different remotes ,so that we could bring the temperature down. As the room cooled around 11pm we went to sleep. Not long after say within 1 hour I woke up with an ITCH. I wondered it can not be from mosquitoes, I turn the light on to see BEDBUGS on the pillow. I pick the phone to call reception when my husband advises that reception closes at midnight. OMG...what a nightmare both beds have bugs and there is no one to complain to. We all ended up sitting in the chair which was in our room and in the balcony for the rest of the night. I have been to most of the 5 star hotels and I regret ending up here. Next morning when we complain to the receptionist,all we get is a sorry. There was no duty manager or supervisor on site assist with our complaint. Guess what...we were not the only ones who suffered, other guest had the same issue of bedbugs. The hotel had maybe 5-6 staffs.Actually it's not a resort or hotel I would say with the service provided it is more like a lodge. Rooms are beautiful, the management is hopeless. Looks like someone is not doing their job.There was no activity or liveliness in the hotel. Never coming back and definitely not recommending to my friends and family.
