Patti and her partner Semi and amazing hosts and Uoleva island has white soft sand the whole way round, surrounded by stunning coral and amazing fish life. We just missed the whale season, but we snorkeled for hours around the reefs and saw literally hundreds of different species. We walked around the whole island (about 3 hours) in total isolation, not difficult when there are actually only 4 inhabitants. We kayaked, read books, napped, forgot we owned mobile phones and drank wine under shooting stars.

Getting there can be tricky. Plan ahead, especially with the local airline Lulutai. The best option is to call them on +676 26 488 as they don't have a website or answer Facebook messages.

We had an exceptional time at Serenity, an absolute disconnection from the busy life, beautiful nature and ocean life, swimming with whales, drinking fresh coconuts, great meals that suit everyone. Peace and Serenity!!!

The staff were extremely helpful to us and very accommodating to our dietary needs and our baby. A magical place in a gorgeous and intimate setting. We will miss the friends we made!
