Ok, let’s make this simple, if you want to go and find true Fijian hospitality, in a place unspoilt by tourism and the western world then Bobo’s is the place for you. Expect the simple life, no electricity (supposed to be coming soon, all in good Fiji time), water from the river (but drinking water is always available, free, from... More

A few friends of mine came back from a trip to Fiji and couldn't stop raving about Bobo's farm. I had been to Fiji before and thought I had seen it all, but I was wrong! After seeing the photos they took, then noticing the perfect reviews on here, I knew I had to check Bobo's out for myself. I... More

After a long journey from London to Fiji, we made finally made it to Suva to get the bus and ferry over to Ovalau. We had clocked up 28 hours of constant travel and were very tired. The moment we saw Bobo we knew all the effort had been worth it. I didn't realise human beings could smile so wide... More

I can't say enough good things about Bobo's Farm! Bobo and Kerin were absolutely amazing hosts. We had read stellar reviews and after a few reviews for other properties didn't exactly match what we experienced- I didn't want to get my hopes up but I was floored. Bobo and Kerin make sure that you immediately feel at home and Kerin's... More

We stayed almost a week with Karin and Bobo. We have got so many adventures, so many experiences, so warm welcome in Bobo's farm! They know all kind of herbs what you can eat as a salad, or use as a shampoo! The natural water slide in the creek is something what you will never forget! The kava ceremonies and... More

The experience we had at Bobos farm was so good its difficult to put into words! Bobo and Karin are the most incredible hosts ever. Anything you want they are happy to do it for you like when we found a coconut and asked Bobo if he could open it up for us, he was more than happy to. The... More

Bobo's Farm! Saying that just brings back a flood of memories from our recent trip to the Fiji Islands. We had opted to stay for nearly the entire duration of our time in Fiji -- and it's a good thing we did. Through living in the rainforest, we were able to get the real Fijian experience: the people, the food,... More

I've been in Fiji for five months now traveling and studying. With only one month left I still felt that I hadn't got the full Fiji experience that I came for, but then I stayed at Bobo's Farm and finally discovered the real Fiji that I had been looking for. You get to stay in a cabin out in the... More

Bobo's house is set in a remote place, surrounded by tropical rainforest with a volcanicly-grey sandy beach nearby. It is totally inspiring. He lives in a house with his maid and guests stay in a 2 bedroomed apartment at the end of his garden. There are hammocks to relax in and the atmosphere is tranquil. It is perfect for young... More
