Beautiful House and Great Location!
Looking for resort experience? Probably not for you. But for us, who wanted a less sterilized Fiji experience it was awesome. We had two couples for which this house is perfectly designed. We hired cooking out to Raj all but two days, which is highly recommended for breakfast and dinner. The outdoor shower is amazing. The pool is also amazing. Each bedroom is cooled with A/C, the main room is not and can get hot especially in the summer evenings. We really didn’t cook a whole lot but it does have a refrigerator for storing snacks. Just a few minor things, some guests might not care but for the coffee addict like me, there is a French press but a drip coffee maker would be nice. Another great addition would be an ice maker of some sort. Finally the second bedroom shower doesn’t drain well, so that might be something to fix. Overall only small things. The gardens outside are beautiful! Make sure to bring some bug spray if so inclined because the mosquitos were bad at least this time of year. Overall an awesome experience. Couldn’t have asked for a better host and again shout out to Raj as she made eating so easy, reasonably priced and enjoyable!

Best Holiday We've Ever Had!!!
Where do you start? How do you describe absolute perfection? Location was perfect, we were alone, not near kids or tourists - perfect! The property is better in person than the photos looked, I dont know how thats even possible. We had a 2 week stay, & whether it was raining or sunny, the views & sunsets were breath taking, absolutely unbelievable. We cooked our own meals in the kitchen, we had the private chef cook amazing meals for us, we ate in the bali hut at sunset with views of the whole world around us, we ate breakfast out there in total awe of our surroundings, it was just amazing. Huge bonus having filtered tap water for drinking. The pool water was warm from the sun & clean & the best daily spot to swim and have cocktails in. The BBQ on the deck was great for our Aussie bbq's! The king bed was very comfortable. There are 2 outside showers which with the most amazing views! Plenty of balconies & decking for relaxing outside. A handy laundry with washing machine & dryer for clothes. Our driver & cleaners were very happy to help us out with anything we needed. There is a gorgeous look out if you wander down the steps at the front of the property. The air con inside works very well for hot days & nights! Our host, Danielle, went above & beyond for us, she looked after us so well & was there for abs anything we needed. She is amazing, her custom service was GOLD star! Thank you Danielle for a perfect paradise trip we will never forget!

Amazing Experience
The property itself was stunning. The view over the bay was just beautiful. It would be hard not to relax here and tune into “Fiji time” which is bit slower than some places! Danielle was great with the comms and very responsive - but to be honest everything was perfect so we only really needed her just for some tips on local sights and sounds. This property is set on luscious grounds in a tropical environment. Of course some of the insects, frogs or lizards will come into or be around the house. Hopefully not an issue for most people and I hope visitors will be realistic. I would 100% recommend this property - it is so nice to see a property where the pictures match the reality and it has that “wow” factor. Thanks again Danielle for making my 50th birthday special! Richard.

Danielle was so helpful from the beginning of the booking to the end! She made sure that staying at the villa was very smooth and memorable for us and anything we asked, she did extra work to give us the answer! She is the most reliable person and we highly recommend her villa! The villa was so beautiful and the pool and gardens were well taken care of. What a wonderful place to spend our vacation!

Just what we ordered
This property is practically perfect. A stunner of a home with tons of space, comfortably and tastefully decorated and furnished plus an impressive infinity pool. The gardens are lush and well tended and you feel like you are in a luxury resort but without all the people. This property is incredibly private with impressive views and is close to fantastic snorkelling in the crystal clear water of the nearby lagoon. We spent most of our time outside as there are so many options at this property. Danielle (our host) was wonderful to work with and delivered on everything we asked for including putting us in touch with local legend Bablu (our taxi driver). We can’t recommend this property enough and hope we will be back again some time soon. But don’t take our word for it - try it for yourself, we promise you won’t be disappointed.

Perfect reset
A perfect property to reset and be in the moment. A very reliable driver was referred to us and he was very pleasant. We enjoyed this property over a resort to be at peace without the bustle of other tourists. It felt like a secluded paradise for us with the private pool. We enjoyed meeting the local neighbors daily as we made our way to the bay to paddleboard and snorkel… definitely a hot uphill walk with a paddleboard lol but worth it. Beautiful sunsets and gazing out over the ocean. Comfortable air conditioning in rooms. Lovely interior and decor. Lots of outdoor seating and decks to take it all in. Danielle was very helpful and met all our needs. Thank you for a wonderful stay at

Hidden paradise
My wife and I stayed at Danielle’s property, we couldn’t believe that this place was real. Our jaws dropped walking into the backyard seeing the views. By far the best place we have ever stayed at, Just incredible. The house was very clean and prepared for us. Danielle was very responsive and helpful, anything we needed she took care of it for us. We will definitely be staying here again in the near future.

A Seaside Fairytale ❤️
Maravu Paradise Villa was an absolutely magical and breathtaking 2 week experience. We were in awe of all the brightly colorful flowers and the green foliage on the grounds. The whimsical wooden walkway to a beautiful ocean lookout was simply amazing. Every sunset was unique with great views from the outside deck. We also enjoyed magnificent views of the Milky Way galaxy every night. The galaxy looked better with the palapa, pool and house lights out. Dani was very responsive and could get staff on-site if needed. Laite and Zack are beautiful people who were easy to talk to. They were super helpful when needed. The took us on a bilibili salt lake adventure. Zack also took us hiking, to a waterfall and lagoon while regaling us with Vanua Leti history and stories. We are definitely to returning to Maravu in a few years!

Amazing House, Wonderful Host & Great Staff!
My wife and I enjoyed an amazing stay in this beautiful home. Incredible views, great pool and a large comfortable house. You have to see the view from the back porch and pool to believe it. Best we have ever seen! The host Dani made our trip easy and helped out a lot along the way. She helped us set up a number of excursions which really made our trip special. We hired Raj the chef for most of our dinners and the food was perfect. Miss it already! Dani also helped us set up housekeeping which made our long stay easy and extra indulgent! Our housekeeper Laite and her husband Zach were really helpful and gave us good info about the island. Zach also joined us on some excursions which made them extra fun and comfortable. All together a really memorable stay in a beautiful place. We look forward to visiting again when we can get away. If you are thinking of Fiji book this home. You won't be disappointed. It is amazing!

Beautiful Property and Views
This is a beautiful villa with lovely views of the ocean. Our group of four friends enjoyed the infinity pool and pool-side palapa very much! We made most of our own meals, but enjoyed having Raj cook dinner for us one night. The property manager was very responsive when contacted, both before arrival and during our stay. The villa is 16+ km from Savusavu, so we rented a car to make getting around easier. Be aware, the driveway is VERY steep. We would recommend this villa for anyone looking to relax and enjoy the beauty of Fiji.

Perfect holiday house
We had such an relaxing, fun stay at Maravu. It had everything we needed and more, including a bbq, laundry, oversized bedrooms, lots of places to sit and relax and the pool was the perfect temperature with amazing scenic views over the bay and an amazing tropical garden. Danielle was also an amazing host, being very responsive to any queries we had, lots of information provided before we got there, and was so helpful in organising local tours and in house massages for us! Would definitely recommend this for a relaxing holiday stay with epic views.

A Week in Paradise!
The pictures don't do this place justice - the views are unbelievable! My husband and I flew from LAX to Nandi and then a small plane to Savusavu. The villa is a few minutes drive from the airport. Once you arrive, you won't want to leave. Dani booked in-villa massages for us, which we enjoyed in the screened in sun room. The swimming pool is quite large, and the views from the pool are second to none. The water was a perfect temperature, and the outdoor palapa provides more than enough shade. All that said, the absolute highlight of our trip was our chef Raj's cooking. She made us 3 amazing meals a day, including some of the best curries and samosas we have ever had. We literally loved everything. Thanks Dani and Raj for the trip of a lifetime!

Amazing house
If your looking for a unique retreat outside Savusavu, no need to look any further. Pictures do not do justice to this wonderful house. Gorgeous views, well stocked kitchen, amazing infinity pool, comfortable bedrooms - you could not ask for anything else in a rental! The house is set up perfectly for 2 couples as the bedrooms are on each end of the house with the living room, media room and kitchen in the middle. I look forward to the day we can return. Until then I will be dreaming about Maravu Paradise.

Best place in Savusavu/Fiji/world?
I think this just might be. The pictures online are amazing, but they hardly do the property justice. From the moment you step in, you're treated to paradise. This is so much more than your typical resort stay and a great way to have your own slice of heaven. My favorite part was the pool, which I spent hours and hours in (even in the rain!). The views, especially of the stars on a cloudless night, will be one of the most memorable parts of my trip to Fiji. A note that the property is about 15 minutes from Savusavu proper, so you'll definitely need a car to get around. There are rentals in town and plenty of places nearby to eat/buy groceries. Don't hesitate. Book this property today. And a huge thanks to Dani for her hospitality, responsiveness, and making this an outstanding experience!

Great time in Maravu Paradise Villa
We really enjoyed our stay in Maravu Paradise Villa, the villa is amazing with beautiful detailed design and nice decorations. The infinity has the same reflection colour as the blue lagoon in front and a huge garden to explore with. Detailed local info/activities around Savusavu were provided which has been helpful. Highly recommended and hope to return next year!
