If you plan to stay in one of the many resorts on the Coral Coast why not consider a night or two staying in a Fijian village? 

Sake and Tupou can arrange to pick you up from your resort. This way you can have the resort vacation and also real local experience at the same time.
 

Isso is the private driver for Danny's
 

Isso is also on hand if you need a transfer to and from the Nadi International Airport or the resorts at Denarau.  It is FJD$150.00 Fijian dollars one way from the Nadi International Airport or Denarau resorts to Danny's. Currency Converter

Staying in a village home stay also helps the village community as part of the rate goes directly back to the village to help fund the village upkeep.

The Coral Coast is Fiji's most well-known popular destinations and commences after about an hour's drive along the Queens Highway from the Nadi International Airport. The highway follows the coast southward providing one of Fiji's prettiest coastal drives for about 35 kilometers with stunning views of the many bays, beaches, villages and the fringing coral reef that gives the region its name.

Your Fijian hosts Sake & Tupou offer a Fiji home stay experience while staying in a Fijian village. The village is called Namatakula and is a 2hrs drive from Nadi International Airport. It is half way between Nadi and Suva.

Experience the real Fiji. Experience a pleasant serene environment, away from Fiji's "mass tourism". When you visit Fiji there is nothing wrong with spending time in a resort but why not also spend part of your time in Fiji at real Fijian village and see for yourself how the Fijian people live.

Henry is Tupou's brother and he works at Danny's to make sure the guests get to see and do everything they want to do while staying in the village.  Henry has worked at resorts on the Coral Coast so is well aware as to what tourists want to see and do in the area.

Getting there
By car: Danny's is a 2 hours drive from Nadi International Airport.
Nadi to Sigatoka 1 hour and from Sigatoka to Namatakula Village 1 hour.
 

The following rent-a-car companies have offices at the airport and have desks at International arrivals: Avis, Hertz, Budget, Europcar, Thrifty.


By taxi: Once you clear Fiji customs and exit the arrivals hall you will see yellow taxi cars outside the terminal. Ask the driver for a price to take you to Namatakula Village. It should be around FJD$135.00 to FJD$150.00 Fijian dollars one way, but try and negotiate a better price.

By bus: Pacific Transport has several express and local buses between Lautoka and Suva Mon-Sat via the Queen's Road. Namatakula is on the Queens Road. They all stop and pick up passengers at the domestic terminal at Nadi Airport. The express buses take about 4 hrs between Nadi and Suva, compared to 5 hrs on the local bus. Namatakula Village is halfway between Nadi and Suva. I would suggest taking the express so that you don't make every stop along the way. Make sure you tell the driver before you get on the bus you want to get off at Namatakula Village. By bus the cost should be around FJD$10.00 to FJD$12.00 Fijian dollars.

While visiting Sigatoka take the time to visit TAVUNI HILL FORT as this is one place in Fiji that definitely tells the tales of the turbulent times in Fiji.  Located in the interior of Nadroga, the Tavuni Hill Fort is clear evidence of the fierce tribal wars that were fought in the name of Fijian beliefs and against Christianity.

Kula Eco Park is a 15 min car journey from Danny's and is well worth a visit.  It is a park full of native and non native animals and is a must for families with small children.

The snorkeling off the beach is FANTASTIC but if you wish to snorkel, you will need to bring your own snorkeling gear. For a small charge you can you can get one of the villagers to accompany you snorkeling to make sure you see the best part of the bay. Make sure you ask them to show you the Giant Clams in the bay.
