Romantic paradise
Spent 8 nights at the Pod House, we simply loved the privacy and accommodations. Great indoor and outdoor spaces, spectacular views, including the night skies while having a late pool dip. Close to town and nearby snorkeling and scuba diving. We will be comong back.

Amazing Find
This place is spectacular and way better than we imagined in every way. It truly is paradise. Bruce and Tuks were so helpful and friendly. The views, plunge pool and finishes on the house were awesome. The only wish we have is a few more basics in the kitchen like oil and spices, but that’s not a make or break. This was our first stop in Fiji and Bruce said this would be our highlight. He was absolutely right. We’d love to go back!

The Pod House was beautiful!
We recently got home from our 7 night stay in Savusavu at the Pod House. We had such an amazing trip and have Jolene and her staff to thank. The house was very private, clean and comfortable. There were kayaks and snorkle gear for us to use, but we ended up buying our own snorkels while there. The area is very quiet with little to no noise, even the water was very calm due to being in the bay. The sunsets were unbelievable! The house came with basic supplies so we had to purchase things like condiments and toilet paper which we expected. Even though there is a TV, with a DVD player, some of the DVDs didn't work and there is no TV service. To be warned, there are steep stairs to climb to get to the Pod House, but they were helpful by bringing up heavy items, like our luggage. Taxis are plentiful, with a one-way trip costing about 8-10 FJD and takes about 10 mins to town. While in town, everyone was friendly and there were many restaurants to try. Jolene and some of the taxi drivers were knowledgeable of the restaurants and gave us ideas of places to go. One night we went to the Jean-Michel Cousteau Resort for dinner and unexpectedly got a Fijian show while there. We had such a great time during our stay and highly recommend staying here!

Perfect place for two snorkeling enthusiasts who like to cook.
We loved being able to walk right out the door and across the road and straight out to some of the best snorkeling on the island. Easy access to the shops and produce market in Savusavu for groceries and supplies. Great stay!

Fiji at it's best
The Pod House was a wonderful honeymoon experience for my wife and I. The house itself was was incredibly clean and secluded. The view of SavuSavu Bay couldn't be beat! After reading positive review after review I shouldn't have been surprised but when we got there it was somehow better than I ever could have expected. Instead of going to some touristy resort where you are hand fed Fijian culture, stay at the Pod House and experience the wonderful town of Savusavu, the amazing people that live there, and the natural glory that was around every corner. This review wouldn't be complete without the mention of Jolene who helps run the two properties. She became perhaps the highlight of our honeymoon, spending time with her and learning about Fiji was a memory I will cherish for many years to come.

Ideal location and vibe
We had an amazing time at the Pod House. Everything was just perfect from the amazing views to the pool, outdoor shower, beautifully tiled indoor shower, kitchen, and living room. We walked to the Cousteau resort daily for scuba diving. There is also a spectacular snorkeling spot just meters up the road! It was a short and inexpensive taxi ride to town for dinner. Jolene was on-site daily and was extremely helpful and accommodating. It’s rare to find a rental with someone available all day to help answer questions, call taxis, etc. Bruce and Jen are awesome and we had a great time on their catamaran one afternoon. We would 100% stay here again! We absolutely LOVED the Pod House!!!

Amazing Experience!
Our stay at the Pod House was easily the best part of our 2 week visit to Fiji. Bruce and Jen were very accommodating and were excellent hosts. The property manager, Jolene, was absolutely wonderful and coordinated our entire itinerary during our stay. She not only provided the best recommendations for food (best food in Fiji we've had across every meal) but excursions as well; she would arrange and organize all the logistics so that everything went seamlessly, leaving nothing else for you to do but to enjoy what Savusavu had to offer. The property's taxi driver, Bablu, was also amazing. He was always very dependable and went out of his way to arrange any additional activities we wanted to do. Everyone went above and beyond to ensure that our experience was nothing short of exceptional. We would absolutely recommend staying at the Pod House to anyone planning to visit Savusavu, especially since we definitely will be planning to in the future!

Perfect Island Home
I can’t even begin to say enough good things about the Pod House. Jolene was so wonderful leading up to our stay and through out. The owners were there if we needed anything, and both had wonderful suggestions about things to do. This is the perfect romantic retreat, located about 6.5 km from town, but close to a pristine beach with amazing snorkeling. When you needed a quick cool off, the pool was there to provide. The kitchen was well stocked with everything needed to cook, including a wonderful BBQ. I can’t begin to say enough good things. If you are thinking about staying in Savusavu, stay here. Thank you so very much, and we absolutely plan to come again!!!

Perfect stay! Few other words can describe the beauty and ideal setting of the Pod House. The owners and staff are as helpful, kind, caring, available and always providing Fijian warmth and Bula. Romantic setting at its best! Good fun snorkeling just steps away. Loved the local town dining, shopping, out door market and certainly the warmth of the local people too. Boat ride with Bruce is a must adventure! Our stay was off the charts great. Vanaka, John and Maila

Our 3rd stay and just as happy as before
What can we say...we love the Pod House! It’s privacy is top notch, yet there are views towards the sea and plenty of outdoor spaces for sitting and sleeping. The plunge pool is cool but not cold and terrifically refreshing. The bedroom pod is quiet, comfortable and very spacious with a very nice, contemporary shower and double sink area. The kitchen area is well equipped for cooking all the fun things that we purchased at the market. We will happily return to the Pod House or it’s sister property the house of Bamboo hopefully sooner...not later. Thanks Jolene and Bruce for another fantastic vacation. Scott and Anne

Paradise!
We spent 14 AMAZING days at The Pod House!! Bruce was great to deal with when booking the Pod House. Jolene greeted us at the airport and took the time to show us where to shop and eat while staying in Savusavu. We arrived at the Pod House to find it exceeded our expectations and the Fiji starter pack in the kitchen was a nice touch!! We enjoyed the use of the kayaks and appreciated the absolute privacy. Jolene was quick to answer any of our questions and was always available to organize tours and dinner reservations. If you want to truly experience Fiji then this is the place to stay!! We miss our morning chats with Jolene and cannot wait to return!! Thank you Bruce and Jolene for making this a holiday to remember!!

Paradise. Where to start. View is to die for, quite, private, everything you need to escape the craziness of the world right there for you. Good Snorkeling and kayaking just 50 feet from the property. I did a discovery scuba dive which was just amazing (Korosun Dive is highly recommended). Jolene was a great host and very helpful in showing us around etc. I promise, you'll never want to leave this little paradise on earth.

Absolutely incredible! Could not have asked for a better place or better people!
We booked this property for our Homeymoon and could not have asked for a better vacation. When planning our trip we wanted to make sure we got the full experience and we are so glad that we found Pirates Paradise/Pod House. It was everything we dreamed of and more. We will definitely be back! The property itself was breathtaking. Truly even better than the photos could ever portray which is hard to believe. Everyone there was welcoming, friendly, and super helpful. Most importantly I cannot say enough good things about Bruce, Jen, Jolene, and the guys. They made us feel like family from the moment we arrived. Bruce and Jen helped us to navigate our way around the island and gave us plenty of advice on where to eat and things to do during our stay. Jolene is truly a gem, always greeting us with a Bula and a smile and ensuring that every second of our trip was perfect. She made sure to give us advice on where to eat, what to see and do, and even went above and beyond to schedule several outings for us. They also have a masseuse that will come to the house (whom she scheduled for us as well)Don’t miss out on scheduling a massage! Snorkeling gear is available and there is a amazing place just a short walk or kayak ride away called split rock. Snorkeling here is a must! Long story short...book your stay here! Hands down the best choice for your trip to Fiji, you won’t regret it! The properties and people at Pirates Paradise are nothing short of incredible. Huge shout out and thank you to Bruce, Jen, Jolene, and the guys for everything you do and helping us to make memories that will last for a lifetime! Shaun and Lacey

Jolene started our trip by picking us up at the airport and showing us around the town of Savusavu (located a $8 fijian taxi ride away from the pod house) The Pod house is a luxury accommodation with options to use snorkel gear paddle boards and kayaks. We enjoyed the use of the kitchen for breakfasts with a mimosa by the plunge pool and went to town for our dinners. The house was clean, private and modern and Jolene's great hospitality made the trip for us.

A rare gem... a property that exceeds expectations!
The Pod House is a sublime property - combining a great design, appointments and location to deliver an amazing holiday experience. There are an abundance of places to sit and lounge around... so that you can chillax wherever you want, regardless of the weather. Great care and thought has been put into the design and layout of both the 'sleeping' pod and the 'living' pod. The house is totally private, yet open to the landscape and environment around you. The views across Savu Savu Bay are gorgeous - and there's fabulous snorkelling virtually on your doorstep. The elevated view means that there are a few steps to climb to get there - so be prepared for some minor aerobic activity to get in and out of the property. The town of Savu Savu is a quick, scenic and cheap taxi ride if you want some variety - and there are plenty of inexpensive dining options in town. The management and support staff are delightful and accommodating - and happy to help make your stay as comfortable as possible. In a nutshell - The Pod House is fabulous.

In one word stunning: the house, the location, the views. You don't want to leave
We stayed in the pod house for 8 nights and had a fantastic time The house has it all Breakfast on the balcony with awesome views across the bay, take your pick of two daybeds to have another snooze or read a good book, sit in a comfy chair by the pool, jump in to cool off, all in absolute privacy. Tom is always there behind the scenes to give a helping hand or advise if needed. We hired a car in town for two days and got to see some beautiful scenery and meeting the local people is a experience we'll never forget There are very few signs so getting "lost" is quite easy but people are very helpful and we always felt safe. Keep in mind that Savusavu is not (yet) a touristy place, which we liked, and a lot is done the Fiji way: the "tourist office" in town was closed on Saturday and thought that we could make our own way to the rainforest reserve without them calling ahead only to find the place locked up and it didn't look frequently used. Plenty of shops and restaurants in town at very reasonable prices, shopping where the locals go, like the market, is a great experience. Keep in mind that this island has no real white beaches that come to mind thinking of Fiji islands, for great snorkeling or diving you will have to book a tour. For us the pod house was the perfect place to stay The booking with Bruce was fantastic, great communication and everything was as promised and highly recommend staying here
