Detailed Reviews
We’re volunteers for Engineers Without Borders and on assignment in remote portion of Buca Bay. Each weekend we come to SavuSavu for re-supply and R&R. We bumped into Gecko lodge by accident when our regular spot jacked up their prices to insane levels; We are so glad we found Gecko!
Jeremy is our host and you could not ask for a nicer, friendly, accommodating person. We had a medical scare and had to extend our stay, and Jeremy worked with us to allow us more time to deal with our situation.
The rooms (I’ve stayed in all of them, I think) are beautifully decorated, simple in design, clean as a whistle, and have a refrigerator so we can actually enjoy a cold beverage!! Oh, and they have hot water, too?! Yes, they do! We are on our second weekend stay as I write this, and will stay again next week as our final night in the area.
There is a clean and well stocked outdoor kitchen, which we took full advantage of to enjoy the cool am views of the bay. Tea service with kettle are in each room.
Finally, if you just cannot take the heat, turn on the AC, it works really well.
I cannot imagine lodging anywhere else!

My husband, our two sons in their early twenties and I spent two night in this beautiful, clean, and conveniently located place. We were lucky to be first guests in the lodge which reopened after being closed for over two years. The owner was very helpful and friendly. He arranged for our transportation, helped us to plan which places to visit in the area, and introduced us to Ana, an amazing local guide who also offers heavenly massages.
We stayed in a room with ocean view and we truly enjoyed watching ocean sunsets from our balcony. The spacious room had two queen beds and one twin bed, dining table and a little kitchen with a small fridge. It comes with its own big bathroom and air conditioning. There is a bigger communal kitchen on the property together with outside dining area. The whole property is beautifully maintained and our room was absolutely spotless.

We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 week stay in the spacious front room with verandah overlooking the bay. The bed is good, the room clean and the towels and sheets changed whenever requested. The outside common kitchen is basic but convenient.
The hosts Jeremy and Ana are very friendly and obliging and Ana can provide a wonderful massage. The walk into town is only about a kilometre and the taxi service recommended by the hosts is very reliable and friendly. We highly recommend Gecko Lodge.

Stayed here for 3 nights with my partner.
This three-room lodge is the perfect location for travellers who want the views of savusavu without the hassle of booking somewhere up on the hill/out of town. It's just a 15 minute walk into central savusavu.
The host is so accommodating and really makes you feel welcome. The rooms are spotless. Loved the communal dining area where you can look at the ocean and watch the sunset. Breakfasts here are lovely!
I stayed in the garden view room, but next time will opt for the ocean view room as it has lounge chairs and of course--and ocean view.
Great place for solo female travellers as you'll feel really safe here. Super quiet and surrounded by tropical gardens! A beach where you can swim is just steps away as well.

My wife and I stayed here while in savusavu for 3 days. Beautiful property, very clean! The host Ana and everyone on the property is very kind and extremely helpful and gracious! Ocean is right across the street if you want to snorkel, the town is maybe a 15 minute walk or a short taxi. Was only about $7 taxi ride from the airport

This budget friendly hotel is clean, comfortable, and convenient. It is walking distance to town, bus, ferry, and several restaurants. Anna the host was very helpful and accommodating. Room was exceptionally clean and had coffee and tea in the spacious kitchenette. We stayed in Room 1 with a beautiful deck overlooking the bay. Great A/C, too! Highly recommend.

Gecko Lodge is nice to stay because the lady running it is very kind and helpful. It's more like staying in her house more than a lodge. Very comfortable and the food Sara makes is very delicious. I would recommend staying here as it's just outside the busy area and is more relaxing.

We were the first people to stay here which always makes me nervous. It was however fantastic. A huge spacious room with a big bathroom, lounge and access to a kitchen.
It is about a 10 minute walk from the ferry but Sara's fetched us and even stopped for us to stock up at the supermarket.
I would definitely stay there again. Be sure to have dinner at Hidden Paradise.

I stayed at The Gecko Lodge for 5 nights this past week and LOVED it. I was traveling solo and Sara made me feel quite welcome and cared about. The lodge is sparkling clean and very comfortable. The location is convenient for walks into town as well as snorkeling. Sara arranged for a driver/guide for sightseeing as well as reservations for snorkeling. Her recommendations for local sights, etc. were much appreciated. This is a small, owner run lodge so no upscale amenities but you cannot go wrong with a stay in this serene place. Try to book the larger room facing the bay.
