I made a reservation strictly for spending the day before my flight to swim and shower. When I checked in I was told the pool, which is actually on the property next door, was closed for maintenance. I spent the day hanging around. When I wanted to shower, I was told the towels had not been returned from laundry yet. A wasted day. But the staff was really nice.

Great place to meet people and stay in Nadi to know the town( couple of days is fine). The wailoaloa beach doesn't represents what Fiji has to offer regarding beaches and islands.
The facility are good and the staff surper friendly.

We stayed here on our last night in fiji as it was super close to the airport. We had a double room which was just a bed and a shower and toilet, everything we needed just for the one night. The staff were nice and friendly our room was clean and tidy the only thing that let this place down was the noise at night time. Across the road from the backpackers was a pub which on the night we stayed had a band playing. Between the noise from the music and the constant barking of dogs there was little sleep had. We understand this is out of the control of the property but worth noting if you plan on staying here to atleast have some earplugs. There was also no shared kitchen area to make food or hot drinks if you needed. Nothing supplied in room either.

Bamboo has a bad case of bed bugs! I heard about it before I stayed, checked the bed and stayed anyway, and am covered in welts after 1 night. It was loud, people will be singing and talking loudly outside your room out all night. Awful. You couldn’t pay me to stay here again. Friendly reception staff though. Cash only, be prepared.

Street Lights, pot holes, bumping road, Male staff member did not give us what was promised a ground floor room. I booked weeks ahead of time. After we checked he checked in 8 more parties.
Two days later I found out he didn’t even tell the manager. Once I told the manager She was lovely and we got moved to a much better room down stairs!

Great. They were doing some maintenance so put us in another self catering unit. Unfortunately there was no WiFi or free shuttle from the airport but everything else was perfect.

Good but so cold at night need better bedding or heating
4.0
Can be noisy at time with groups or bars (people partying) across the road. Can feel unsafe when drunks are shouting right outside.
Would be nice to have a small fridge or kettle provided with private rooms

Great location but water flow was interrupted at times. Dorms can do with an update

Ahhhh Bamboo backpackers. The place I keep coming back to. Note that it is under new ownership and now called Bluewater. You can’t beat the price- especially if you have a night or two to stop over in Nadi. The people working there are amazing they’re so nice. The bus to town is easy and it’s close to the airport.
here are my tips:
DONT BOOK THE CAPSULE. You will either suffocate and die in it or you will fall off the ladder and hit your head and die. The room is so small so there’s nowhere to put your stuff, the ladders are terrifying, and the AC doesn’t really work. Do not book the capsule.
The big dorms are, well, big, but they get a lot of airflow and are comfortable. I’ve stayed in the women’s big dorm and liked it. You can’t beat the price either.
Single room was fine- I always get nervous when there’s a bit of a mini kitchen with a sink near the bed…you might get some creepy crawly visitors- but that could happen anywhere and not just this hotel.
PRO TIP:
Try to stay in bluewater lodge behind bamboo. Same management, the internet works there (wink wink) and they have the pool there. Even if you aren’t sleeping there you can go hang by the pool and use the wifi. I stayed in the 4 person dorm there and it was lovely with good AC.

Basic accomodation in a great location. Handy for lots of restaurants and close to the beach and airport. .

Place was kind of a dump. My first room, the electricity was constantly turning on and off. Probably a total electrical hazard. I got moved to another room that had working electricity. Overall, rooms were shabby, sheets had stains. I guess you get what you pay for at a cheap place.

For a backpacking hotel, you should at least provide a communal cooking area for the guests as it’s a hot country, don’t even have a fridge to keep water and food cold (or store it). Don’t even have a kettle in the private room like advertised. Having the property split in 2 sites is inconvenient and it looks like one site is looked after more than the other. Poor internet connection in bamboo site, doesn’t even reach the room. Basically customers just get a bed and that’s it.

The capsules are really good and comfortable. Aircon too although the unit was dripping water and I hope it’s fixed. Clean and functioning bathroom facilities including hot water

I loved my entire stay here. So much so, I came back 3 days later and cancelled by 4 star hotel. The staff is great, the room was great, and the bar scene was film worthy.

The rooms are small and somewhat dirty, but the atmosphere, value for money, and location makes up for it.

Only a couple of people from the staff are avtually friendly and willing to help. All the rest just want your money and push you to buy their tours, which are super overpriced.
Also, our room had bed bugs, they had to move us to different rooms twice.
Waiting time everytime you order breakfast/lunch/dinner is of 1 hour.
Other than that, some of them are friendly and helpful like mentioned above.
