Bula everyone and hope you are all safe! Taveuni has had beautiful weather and also the most wonderful guests staying at Lomani.

Here are some recent reviews from our guests from Dubai, Germany, USA and Australia..!

Rola Fayyed Dubai June 2025
"The place was beautiful, Saskia was so responsive weeks before check in to ensure everything is smooth and whatever I needed is accommodated. The local house hosts Kerala and Knox were so friendly, made us feel like home and even helped us run some errands. The location is out of the world!"

Martin & Sabine June 2025 Germany
"wunderbarer Aufenthalt in paradiesischer Umgebung. Totale Privatsphäre und perfektes Ambiente mit Blick auf das Meer oder in die Sternennacht. Lieben Dank an Kalera und Knox für die professionelle und liebenswerte Unterstützung und den großartigen Service rundum. Unsere Top-Empfehlung für Taveuni! Lieben Dank!"

Dyanee Bouton Australia May 2025
"Lomani is so beautiful and peaceful, I honestly never wanted to leave! Exactly as described, and Saskia was wonderful and responsive to communicate with. Knox and Kelera were amazing and so sweet (as was EVERYONE in Fiji), and always available if I needed anything. I can’t wait to come back! ❤️"

Bonnie Simpson Australia March 2025
"We had a magical 8 night stay for our honeymoon. Lomani is a very special place - peaceful, private and romantic. Knox as a great host and we loved the lovo and kava on our last night. We enjoyed snorkelling, sea kayaking and hiking in the surrounding areas. The cottage is rustic, but very comfortable. We visited in the low season, so food options were a bit more limited and guests should prepare for some creative self-catering using local supplies!"

Justin Horan USA January 2025
"We came to Lomani to ring in the new year and take time to reset. Staying here has been exactly what was needed; plenty of space to spread out, a quiet island to explore and a beautiful place to relax. Kelera’s cooking was divine! Waking up to breakfast in the morning was a highlight to the day! Knox picked us up from the airport and made us instantly feel like friends and helped us navigate the island! Lomani was the highlight of our trip. We will come back again."

Thank you to our guests, and thank you to our amazing property managers Knox and Kelera. Vinaka!

Our latest review from Nathan and Sharne from South Africa....the most special guests as they got engaged at Lomani 🥰 Congratulations!!

"Our stay at Lomani was nothing short of magical—easily one of the most memorable holidays we’ve ever had! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and care. The housekeeper, Kelera, greeted us so graciously, and Knox, her husband, went above and beyond to ensure we had a seamless experience. Not only did he pick us up from the airport, but he also guided us on incredible tours that we arranged with them, making our time even more special. The property itself is absolutely stunning, set in the most picturesque location. Everything about it felt magical, and it became even more significant as we got engaged during our stay! The atmosphere of Lomani truly added to the beauty of the moment, making it a memory we’ll treasure forever. We also loved the chance to scuba dive with Taveuni Ocean Sports, the affiliated dive centre located nearby. It was an incredible experience that added an adventurous touch to our trip. Lastly, we’d like to express our deepest gratitude to Saskia, the host of this wonderful property. Her constant communication and thoughtfulness made the whole process so smooth and enjoyable. Thank you for opening up your home to us—we are so grateful to have found Lomani and had the privilege of staying here. If you’re considering Lomani for your next getaway, don’t hesitate. It’s truly a slice of paradise!"

Our most recent review from New Zealand:

Walking in to Lomani was truly a "WOW" moment and you instantly fall in love. Lomani has the most incredible view up on the hill of the Somosomo Straight right from it's own pool, it honestly doesn't feel real! We cooked our own breakfast in the large kitchen, loved roaming the grounds to find fruits (like pineapples) and tropical flowers. The wifi and Netflix are awesome additions too, but we just found ourselves enjoying switching off and gazing into the stunning sunsets and showered under the stars. Knox was so helpful and picked us up from the ferry, drove us to the shops for supplies, and lots of activities, including the beautiful Bouma falls and we also snorkelled the insanely colourful rainbow reef (amazing dive shop just down the road!). Our experience was enriched greatly by Knox and we enjoyed our time getting to know him. Saskia is also a fabulous host who communicated everything we needed to know before our stay. Glass bottom kayaks and snorkel gear are also available but sadly we ran out of time to use them. There are so many activities to chose from, or equally opportunities to just relax, recharge, and connect with nature and each other. Knox even worked tirelessly all day to cook us a traditional Lovo on our final night at Lomani, which was so delicious and very memorable. It rained quite heavily during our time but it didn't dampen our experience at all. Lomani is a quaint cottage that feels cosy and spacious like home (but with ten times more incredible views). There is something deeply special about Lomani and we hope to return one day but stay longer than three nights. Taveuni is a tranquil, quiet, lush garden island teaming with wildlife, fruit, flowers and creatures (like frogs and geckos), along with such kind hearted people. Unlike anywhere we have ever been before. We are from a busy city and loved how Taveuni is the opposite.

Love our latests review!
August 30th 2024 Brad Underwood USA

We stayed 5 nights at Lomani and it was fantastic being on the property with such privacy including the plunge pool! The view is amazing up on a cliff where we watched the sunset every evening. We felt at home here as everything was very comfortable. It was nice to have everything we needed including the ability to wash our clothes. There is also a dive shop just across the main road which was very convenient.

We were greeted at the airport by Knox and at Lomani by Kalera who had a Pina Colada waiting for us! They are the caretakers and provided amazing service. Knox was available to drive us whenever we desired to go somewhere and he even picked up our dinner and brought it to Lomani on our first night.

We hope to return in the future for an even longer stay!

Thank you Saskia ❤️ for letting us stay at your property!!

Our latest review from guests Stephanie (Atlanta Georgia).
A BIG thank you to Kelera and Knox!!

Our stay at Lomani was one of the best decisions we made! The island of Taveuni is remote and beautiful, and having this entire house/yard to ourselves made it feel like our own private paradise! Knox and Kelera (the property managers) were fantastic...I loved having a connection with these two locals....they answered all of my many, many questions about the Fijian culture. Knox transported us to and from the airport, and drove us everywhere for the next 3 days...he even waited for us while we did our excursions. We loved the outdoor shower and spent most of our time on the patio. The kitchen was well equipped for anything you would need. The bed was comfortable and we enjoyed several fruits from the property. We used the glass bottom kayaks (easy access...right across the street), and also did some snorkeling with the provided equipment. It was a wonderful, wonderful experience and if Fiji wasn't so far, I'd love to spend a month here every year! Definitely recommend!

Public review AIRBNB
🌴
At Lomani we found the best of everything Fiji: 2 acres of manicured lush vegetation, beautiful ocean views across the Somosomo Strait from a cliffside location, a lovely well-appointed home w/ covered lanai, infinity pool, wonderful host (Saskia) & caretakers (Kelera & Knox). Most of all, Lomani provided us w/ the serenity we were seeking & a perfect respite during adverse weather. Kelera & Knox are the local go-to people for all things Lomani. Knox also provided paid transportation services to recommended snorkel spots, food markets, waterfalls, wherever we wanted to go. He is a fun & knowledgeable travel companion, & we thoroughly enjoyed our time w/ him. Knox & Kelera are two local gems that helped make our stay the wonderful experience it was. Before you get there (or once you are settled) provision up, sit back, & enjoy Lomani for all the beauty & serenity it has to offer. You won't be disappointed. Lomani was the highlight of our 6 weeks adventure traveling in Fiji
