Any reviews on mango bay hostel or uprising hostel Fiji?Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Fiji | ||
Hi, ran across these two hostels online...both look okay though uprising sounds a touch nicer. Not looking for resort feel but basic clean dorm bed and a good social atmosphere...reasonably cheap dorm bed price and access to frigates and beqa reef dive and then yasawas....if anyone stayed there would love to hear thoughts | ||
If your'e doing a bega dive, then Uprising would be a good choice. They have a 20 bed dorm for $FD35 including breakfast. You also get the boat for the dive just 5 mins from the resort. if you stayed at Mango bay you would still have to drive down to Pacific Harbour. | 1 | |
Both are fine, but Uprising is definitely higher quality. Lovely grounds and swimming pool and it has a beach there too. Perhaps not as much character but more professional. I liked Mango Bay, very laid back, backpackery vibe but quite isolated whereas at Uprising there is a small town with basic facilities! | 2 | |
