Bure conditions in Octopus& Navalo
Will be first time staying in a Bure. It will be the private deluxe ones. How are the sleeping conditions? I will be there in mid- November. Will it be very hot at night? Are the beds pretty comfortiable? I am not expecting the Hilton of course.
Thanks

Sorry Ive never heard of Navolo, however I know Octopus' bures have a queen bed, it's quite comfy, a couple of chairs, a coffee table & a wardrobe. The shower is attached but open air and the toilet is a normal western toilet inside. There was a ceiling fan and no air cond when we stayed 2 years ago. You are out in the ocean. Nights can be quite cool, days glorious, water temps around 22 degrees. Stop worrying. Octopus is amongst the best budget accom & food in the Yasawas. Don't expect the Hilton, and you'll be fine. Do take mosquite repellent, just in case. Take sunscreen & hats. The food is great and organise a beach dinner when you get there or by email, prior. Have fun & relax!

Mike, the people who work at Octopus are great fun. Be sure to share conversation with the lovely Fijian staff. They are a great bunch of people. Get used to Fiji time! No-one hurries or worries so it can be a bit frustrating until you relax and go with the flow! Have a wonderful trip and be sure to post a trip report! All the best.
