Cheap accom for one night prior to morning ferry to Islands

Country forums / Pacific Islands & Papua New Guinea / Fiji

Hi guys,

Im arriving in Nadi late afternoon on the 2nd of Aug and need to book one night on the mainland before heading off to the islands in the morning at 8am. Anyone have any recommendations for a hostel bed for one night in nadi?

Pref somewhere where I can go and catch the boat easily from in the morning.

After somewhere cheap, a bed for the night being the main aim

I stayed at both Travellers and Aquarias, next door to each other on the not very nice beach, but good sunset view. I thought Aquarias was nicer. Dorm very cheap, but very dumpy at Travellers. Just down the block is Smugglers Cove, which I heard nice things about, also on the beach. And many travellers I met stayed at Nadi Bay Hotel - not on the beach. They are all near each other and all on the Flyer bus route in the morning. Not places to spend your vacation, but fine for the night stopover on the way to the islands.
