Bayside Resort in Yasawa Islands

zuletzt aktualisiert am 05.01.2010

At Bayside Resort we want to offer a unique experience beyond a peaceful, exotic, simple, and comfortable stay in the Pearl of the Fiji.

There are just two traditional thatch burs, each with a double bed, mosquito net and high ceiling. A communal bathroom with cold water shower, separate flush toilet and outdoor sink sits between the two burs giving both burs easy access. There is also the dorm that sleeps four people.

Natural spring water offers a constant supply of fresh drinkable water. There is no shop on the island and supplies are limited so bring nibbles and loads of sunscreen and medical supplies.

The Bayside resort restaurant serves a set meal plan in the high roof thatch bore with sand floor, ensuring an intimate experience to fit in with the resorts image. Vegetarian meals can be provided with prior notice only.

The beach at Bayside Resort is of fine white sand and is backed by coconut palms giving shade from the daytime sun. The beach is about 200 meters long and is flanked by black volcanic rocks on either side. It is possible to walk around the southern point to the stunning twin bay and sand spit connecting Waya and Wayalailai (20 minutes walk) and also around the northern point where the beach extends for almost a mile alongside Yalobi Village (20 minutes walk). The lagoon in front of Bayside is quite shallow at low tide, but still possible for swimming, and the coral reef begins about 50 meters from shore making snorkeling very accessible.

Guides can be hired to explore the mountain tracks that meander around Waya Island, crossing the grassy hills of the interior which connect the four villages on the island and also scaling the mountain peaks (Batinareba at 510 meters) or following the picturesque coastlines. These treks can take anything from a one hour stroll to full day hikes. The village hosts a twice weekly meke and traditional feast which guests can attend. Boat trips around the island and to the outer reef for snorkeling can be arranged.

Getting to Bayside Resort is easy - the 200-seater fast catamaran, Yasawa Flyer is operated by Awesome Adventures Fiji, the catamaran departs Denarau Marina in Nadi every day at 8.30am reaching Bayside Resort at 11am and departing Bayside in the afternoon at 3.30pm arriving into Denarau Marina at 17.45pm.
