Wow! That really sums it up.The pictures you see in the ad are exactly what you see on arrival.The next morning we woke up to the most incredible views of the Pacific.The house is huge.Get the owners to make you at least one local cuisine meal and you'll be glad that you did, delicious!Watch the sunrise and sunset and get lost in the beauty.The beach, channel are only 200 yards away.Go at low tide with snorkel gear & you'll be swimming in an aquarium!I can still hear the ocean waves. Incredible!

The house accommodating our group of 16 at a stretch but we where all comfortable.The Lovo feast gave us the night off from cooking & was enjoyed by all thoroughly, on the other nights we ate like kings.This side of the island has beautiful ocean breezes which we liked because the bugs are not so much of an issue and the house remains cool at all times.Our thanks to Scott & Cristina for making our Fiji gathering of family & friends from around the globe everything we wished for.

Heavensdoor, a truly relaxing holiday

We choose Heavensdoor to have our family stay together whilst we all were in Fiji to attend the wedding of our youngest daughter. Heavansdoor is just perfectly situated on top of a hill (need a 4-wheel drive to get up during the rainy season) with sweeping ocean views from the garden, verandah and upstairs rooms. Fantastic to fall asleep with the sound of the rolling waves and to wake up to mostly blue skies, waving palms and that ocean view and breathing in oxygen rich unpolluted air. The lay-out of the house is just gourgeous and so practicle. The garden is immaculate. We enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere with our children and grandchildren. For the grandchildren it was paradise to explore including finding little creepy-crawleys and they enjoyed the unexpected visit of a couple of horses on a few occasions. Food shopping nearby was a joyful search and find (like potatoes and onions in a hardware store), although there is a very-well stocked supermarket in Sigatoka town. Fresh fruits are best bought along the roadside from the many fruit/vegetable stalls that one can find when driving around. If you don't want to cook then the nearby Outrigger and other 5 star hotels offer beautiful meals at very good prices. We became regulars at the Outrigger (also for the grandchildren's swimming pool time) and the entrance attendants got to know us. We always received a special 'Bula'. On other occasion Scott and Christina prepared authentic Fijian meals for us to enjoy. Many evenings were spent outside on the verandah playing games. There is plenty to do in Fiji and as Heavensdoor is situated right between Nadi and Suva you could choose to go either way without the drive being too long... although, as there is only one main road, the traffic is a lot slower than one would expect. All in all we were sad to have to leave; we could have easily stayed on longer. It's a beautiful place and we highly recommend a stay at Heavensdoor; we are contemplating returning there again. It was great meeting Scott and Christina who have a very relaxed attitude. Many thanks! David and Margo Combe (Kalamunda - Perth W.A. - Australia)

A welcome bonus after 3 months in a camper!

Review Submitted: 09/07/11
After having travelled through New Zealand for three months with our little boy (he turned one during the trip) we decided to take in some beach/island/cultural time in between our next stop in California and spend 6 nights in this beautiful spot. Having spend those three months in a really small camper, the house was a most welcome bonus. Although the house is big enough for 8 people, we used it for the three of us by using the upper floor (and off course using the master bedroom which has the best views :)). The house is located on a hill and the views are absolutely amazing! We really liked the fact that, although you're a bit uphill, you can still hear the waves rolling up the beach. An amazing feeling when you go to bed at night! We spend most of our days either going inland or visiting one of the nearby resorts. There are some really decent restaurants on the sunset strip and if you like to spend a bit more just visit one of the resorts :). We combined this trip with a three day trip to the smaller islands of Fiji, which is a totally different experience and is highly recommended as well. But visiting Heavensdoor has given us a taste of what the real Fiji is like, away from the crowds and the resorts!

BULA SCOTT & CHRISTINA, THANK YOU AGAIN FOR A REALLY GREAT STAY ON OUR FIRST TRIP TO FIJI. CHRISTINA YOUR HOME COOKED CURRY DINNER WAS DELICIOUS. WE WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND STAYING AT HEAVENSDOOR WHEN IN FIJI. THE VIEW FROM THE HOUSE WAS SPECTACULAR. IT WAS A 180 DEGREE VIEW OF THE FIJI COAST. THERE WERE NO MOSQUITOES. THE HOUSE WAS WELL EQUIPPED AND WE LACKED NOTHING. IT WAS FUN BEING AT THE BEACH WHEN SCOTT & CHRISTINA WALKED THE HORSES DOWN TO BATHE THEM. SCOTT KNOWS ALL THE INS AND OUTS OF FIJI AND IS A WEALTH OF KNOWLEDGE. HE CAN TELL YOU WHERE TO FIND GREAT FOOD, TAXI DRIVER AND CAR RENTAL. WE LOOK FORWARD TO OUR NEXT STAY AT HEAVENSDOOR. VINAKA ~~~ DON & KAREN

Bula Scott and Christina! We thank you once again for allowing us to make Heavensdoor our home for two glorious weeks! Your house is wonderfully bright and airy; is tastefully decorated with Fijian art; and affords a magnificent view of which we never tired. Thank you also for preparing a special birthday dinner. The memories will last a lifetime! Also, the girls had much fun washing the horses in the ocean and grooming them. It made them feel less homesick for the horses they ride every week. You were kind to include us. For those of you considering Heavendsdoor as your holiday destination - "just do it!" You will not regret your decision! Scott will promptly attend to any issue you may experience and will help you in planning day trips and excursions. (We highly recommend the zip line!!!) Although the trip to Fiji was very long, we plan to visit Heavensdoor at some time in the future!

We really enjoyed our stay at Heavensdoor. We stayed 9 nights in July, 2011. The house was easily big enough for 8 people. The owner and caretakers were friendly and helpful. We did mostly land activities because we had just spent 8 nights on Mana Island doing water activities. There were lots of choices for activities. We went jungle hiking and saw waterfalls, went to the Sand Dunes National Park, the Eco Park Wildlife (across from the Outrigger Resort), Natadola Beach, and visited two Fiji villages. Our best day was the "Jewell of Fiji Tour" from Navua. I would highly recommend checking this out. We enjoyed all of the activities we did, focusing on nature and cultural adventures. The house itself was nice, in a rustic sort of way. We enjoyed ourselves because we knew what to expect. Check out the Heavensdoor blog to see more photos and get better descriptions. It is not a resort and does not have the same luxuries. Travelers who enjoy getting off the "beaten track" would enjoy this house more. We had enough water, but the hot water ran out very quickly. There were fans in the rooms but no AC. We were there in winter, so that wasn't a problem for us. I'm not sure how that would be in the summer months. The internet connection was great and there was a phone there for use if you wanted it. There was also a TV if you wanted (bring your own videos). The kitchen was well stocked and there was a fire BBQ that we could use. We ate most of our meals in the house, and on two occasions the owners/caretakers cooked for us. One night we had a lovo, a traditional Fiji meal. It was very good. We enjoyed just spending time at the house and relaxing. Between us we had 4 boys who enjoyed playing games outside on the lawn, and we sat and watched the ocean (sunrise through to sunset was beautiful). Parro came up to play rugby with the boys. He also got us all fresh coconuts so we could drink the milk. The best part of the house and our stay at Heavensdoor was the ambiance of the place, the staff, and the dog Sydney. We left very relaxed and refreshed. We rented cars and were very lucky it didn't rain. I would recommend a 4 wheel drive to get up the drive way. The road was narrow and very lumpy/rocky. Even without the rain it was a very slow drive and we "hit bottom" on the car many times. During our stay in July, we had very little rainfall, and there were very few mosquitos. The temperatures were around 28 C and the humidity low.
