I am excited to now be welcoming guests at a stunning beachfront property in Vacala Bay. This beautifully renovated home is just steps away from the ocean — imagine waking up to the soothing sound of waves and starting your day with breathtaking views of crystal-clear waters right in front of you. While I previously hosted from another location, I am now delighted to host from my aunt Mary's gorgeous beachfront home as she begins her own hosting journey. This allows me to continue offering you a memorable and relaxing stay, while also supporting her in sharing this hidden gem with the world. Come and enjoy the serene beauty, fresh ocean breeze, and peaceful atmosphere that makes Vacala Bay so special.

Bula & Welcome to Discover Taveuni! I'm Amoreena Mitchell Tikoilawaqa, your host and founder of Discover Taveuni. Born and raised on this beautiful island, I love sharing the hidden gems, rich culture, and natural beauty that make Taveuni so special. Whether I’m guiding tours, baking fresh island treats, or tending to my organic garden, it brings me joy to connect with guests and make them feel at home. I have worked in tourism and hospitality for many years, and what I love most about hosting is meeting wonderful people from all over the world and helping them feel at home here in Fiji. For me, hosting isn’t just about offering a place to stay — it’s about creating connections, sharing culture, and making sure your experience is memorable. I also enjoy supporting other local hosts who may not have the same online visibility, by connecting guests with hidden gems in our community. It brings me great joy to see travellers discover authentic places and experiences they may not have otherwise found. When I’m not hosting, you’ll find me gardening, baking, or guiding eco-friendly tours around our island. I truly look forward to welcoming you, sharing the beauty of our surroundings, and helping you create unforgettable memories in paradise.
