Ok, ok.... it's a backpackers. I've had my fair share of backpacking and it's all about the price not the place. Price is good considering you CANT GET CHEAPER but after one night we were out of there! The local market is just down stairs and we got a 5am wake up call. Not ideal. Plus you can hear the... More

If you're planning on staying in Neiafu, Vava'u, then you really can't beat Adventure Backpackers Lodge for the price...that said I wouldn't recommend it for a long stay. It's more of place to go, get your bearings in Vava'u and use as a central location, nothing more. The couple who own the place are very nice and helpful, though you... More

I just got back from two weeks on Vava'u. I stayed at Adventure Backpackers and it was great. The rooms were nice, the staff was great, and the location couldn't be better. You're right at the market and super close to banks, cafe's, and shopping. They have kayaks and snorkel gear to rent and they can arrange trips and excursions... More

This was my first time staying at a backpackers style accommodation, and it was great. I'm sure part of it was due to the nice mix of people staying there at the same time, as well as the staff, plus a bit of island fever from earlier in my trip, but never the less, I had a great time. I'd... More

The Adventure Backpackers lodge is situated in the heart of Neiafu, close to Bars, Restaurants and shopping facilities. There are two supermarkets across the street, the market/fishmarket is right next to the Backpackers and Neiafu's best bars and restaurants are within short distance. You get a beutiful view over the harbour, unfortunately the nearest beach is a 20 Pa'anga taxi... More

I stayed in the Backpackers and had a great time. I had a private room as I have too much gear to stay in dorm accommodation and feel my stuff is safe. The bed was made/trash emptied each day and I was able to do laundry when needed. The facility was clean and the staff were helpful. I met both... More
