Amazing beach house!
The home was incredible, the host was extraordinary! Above and beyond any expectations! The kayaking to the third Island from the house was awesome! If you go to the third Island make sure to take your snorkel gear.

The owner and the property are awesome. The view is breathtaking. Jason coordinated a rental car for us and suggested other great businesses during our stay. The tropical breeze this time of year was comfortable. The fans in home with breeze was all we needed

Lovely home and setting!
We had a wonderful stay at the Raintree Garden! The house was clean and comfortable, and the garden around it very pretty, with tropical fruit trees and flowers all around it. Ajay, the driver who Jason introduced us to, was an amazing tour guide and we thoroughly enjoyed our time with him. His wife, Vadana, brought us a delicious Indian meal and also helped taxi us around the island. Thank you to both of them for making our visit to Taveuni a great experience.

Fantastic house
Our party of five had the most wonderful holiday staying in Raintree Garden. From the moment we were met at the airport until we left we were so well looked after by Jay. The house had everything we needed including fruit from the garden. Nothing was too much trouble for Jay and his wonderful tour guide Ajay. Ajay showed us many wonderful sights on the island including the Laveena Coastal Walk, Bouma Waterfalls and birdwatching. Ajay's wife cooked us a wonderful dinner. Jay's neighbour Vinna also cooked us a wonderful meal and provided us with some fantastic massages. There is a market on one side of the house and organic ice cream shop on the other, both we visited often. Everyone agreed it was one of the most peaceful and enjoyable holidays we have been on and we can't wait to go back.

Beautiful property
Meticulous grounds and house! Everything you need in a beautiful house. Ceiling fans and window screens much appreciated! The airstrip is right behind the house, but there are no early morning or evening flights so not a big deal at all; the kids liked watching the take offs and landings! Jason was very accommodating and helped us arrange some fun activities. Recommend taking the kayaks out to the islands to snorkel! Very friendly neighbours and community, easy walk to markets and organic ice cream stall. :). Highly recommend

Great time
We enjoyed our time at Raintree Gardens. The host was very helpful and quick in replying to questions we had. We had access to the garden produce and loved the view of the big raintree and the ocean beyond.

Beautiful seaside views with all the comforts of home on a tropical island
Jay was so helpful and the house was clean and well appointed. We had a lovely stay. We met some locals who made our stay just perfect and saw some local sights and made lifelong friends. An ideal way to explore the garden island of Fiji. We visited the Bouma waterfalls, the natural rock slide (this will scrape your bottom just a wee bit) and the dateline and had a bbq on the beach with new found friends Foi, Lolita and daughter Rhia. Just beautiful.

Simple snorkelling vacation in relaxed Fijian culture.
Our group of 2 adults and one teen enjoyed the simplicity of staying here - self catering, low tech island life. The house had a well equipped kitchen with refrigerator that had a small ice box. Great patio to sit out on, many tropical fruit in the garden to enjoy, including coconuts. Joe the gardener showed us how to open the coconuts. Vinna the manager living next door was a wealth of information. On our last night, we ordered a meal from her, which she cooked and brought over. We appreciated the ceiling fans that kept us cool in the evenings and the screens on all the windows and doors. Our teen liked having the airport runaway in our back yard - there are not many planes. There is the local bus coming by three times a day and it is easy to catch a taxi from the minimart closeby. We found it easy to walk or taxi to the local snorkelling spot. Only one negative is : being in a local neighbourhood meant that we were woken by the roosters each morning at 0430h. But, you could see that as living authentically amongst the locals! We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend this accomodation option.

Taveuni Stay at Raintree
We loved staying at Raintree Garden. It’s very peaceful and tranquil. It’s very close to two grocery stores, and about a mile away from a very nice beach. (Near Tramonto Restaurant.) Robert and Vinna were wonderful hosts. We would stay again.

This is a really nice two-bedroom home, very comfortable except the lack of A/C, which we could deal with. The view from the front patio was magnificent! We could eat our meals there while looking out at a beautiful vista of coconut palms and ocean. We totally enjoyed our stay there and appreciated being able to hire Vinna, the caretaker, to cook marvelous dinners for us. Jason, the owner, was a very attentive communicator with all the questions we had beforehand. He was very easy to work with and likeable!

About the host

Hosted by Jason Gural

Host profile image
We bought this beautiful property in 2016 with the dream of turning it into a vacation rental. After buying the place in 2016 we moved from Hawaii to Taveuni to do some renovations to the house and get our hotel license for the property. With lots of hard work from friends and family, we opened up as a licensed hotel in 2018.

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location! The house is located right in the heart of Matei, two markets within a 5 minute walk from the house with all the essentials you need for your stay. Great restaurants all within walking or a short bike ride. Plenty of white sand beaches scattered around town, and the best place to kayak and snorkel is just across the street from the house. We have 4 small islands just offshore which make for a beautiful view from the deck and provide some great coral as well as a white sand beach on the 3rd island which you will almost always have to yourself!

What makes this property unique

We provide free transportation to and from the airport, and full access to all the veggies, herbs and fruits on the property. We also have home cooked meal options, cooking classes, massages, island tours, and other activities we are happy to help arrange for you.
