Hayley

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Was overcharged for a number of items on my bill, including $99 surf trips that were never taken, and a bar tab twice what was consumed. Poor communication with manager who organised boats to surf that never came. Food was very unhealthy. Burning a big bonfire of plastic on the last night, toxic fumes all night. All my clothes still smelt like smoke even after washing them when I got home. Smelt like rotting fish in bins by pool, smelt like a dead animal service pool deck. Manager promised me he’d take money off my bill as I left one day early, he never did and when I emailed later, totally denied ever offering. Still waiting for refund for being over charged for surf trips on boat never taken.

My partner and I came here recently on a surf trip and absolutely LOVED it. We were warmly welcomed and recognized when we came back a week later. Loved the huts right on the water, the delicious homecooked meals, and the surf we could access via boat with ease. Super relaxing vibe, good price and community feel. Coming back to Funky in November.

It is a nice happy spot. Not pretentious and where many nice and easy going people gather. Malolo is also a beautiful island and from the property you can reach Mt Silo and have a stunning view. However, the food quality should be improved, including with some more local products/cuisine, and costs should be made clear and transparent, such as the 25FJD per person asked for a 1 minute boat ride from the Ferry to the resort.

Excellent staff! Great area for diving. Beach is not swimmable, but loved walking it when the surf was out. Plenty of food but would have liked more options. Too much rice and fries. Loved the bure’s. Not much to do.

Great place to stay in bure with sea view, lovely crystal clear water for swimming. Lovely morning and evening views. Very helpful and friendly staff. Walking distance to six senses beach resort, which is a great add-on. Cheap boat available to visit Musket cove and plantation resorts. Cheapest of most of the other resorts. The beach is tidal, so you won’t be able to swim there all the time, but just over the little hill and six senses beach resort offers all tide swimming and facilities available for visitors. I would really love to go there again.

Affordable, chill, wonderful staff and just good vibes to really slow down if you're willing to go with the flow and embrace the bumpy boat rides! Fanatstic snorkelling and surfing options that you can boat out to and decent hiking areas. Really communal with other guests and staff. Big shout out to the staff when power was cut and they worked so hard to make sure everyone was comfortable as they worked through the night to have it restored. They were such legends.

The views are incredible, but the manager is not friendly, the bed sheets and towels were dirty, the kayaks they offer do not exist (they have one and it is very damaged), it is not a good place to bathe or snorkel. In general, the pool furniture is neglected and in poor condition. The dinners were very good. If your idea is to relax in a hammock all day, this is your place.

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.

Resort had nice views and friendly staff. But that was all. Getting to the resort was hectic. The taxi service very costly. The accommodation was not good. Not very clean. Bedding looked like it was never changed from last use. Bathroom was clean but net overhanging from the roof was full of insects and dust.
