Our humble home is located in Fiji’s capital city, Suva. My husband, daughter and I live in the main house on top and we don’t have pets. We have a well-secured flat at the bottom adjacent to the garage which includes an ensuite furnished bedroom which can comfortably sleep a maximum of two people. The bedroom includes two double beds, including beddings and pillows, with a wardrobe and a vanity dresser as well as bedside tables and throw rugs. There is also an enclosed kitchenette equipped with a four burner stove, a two door fridge, microwave and a hot water kettle. We also have a study table with chairs and a washing room inclusive of a spare toilet and bathroom. We have a treadmill at home which is available for use as well. All utilities are available, i.e. hot and cold water, electricity and Wi-Fi internet. We have a beautiful view of Suva harbor from upstairs with comfortable, relaxing verandahs and gardens upstairs and around the premises for use. Smoking and alcohol consumption is not permitted indoors and prefer this outdoors in the premises instead. Social drinks are permitted indoors for quiet enjoyment although we do not encourage outsiders indoors. We commonly speak English and also speak Tamil and Hindi and are very friendly hosts who pride over our finger licking Indian cuisine. Our home is located 5 minutes from the CBD and all facilities, like cinemas, shopping complexes, grocers and fruits and vegetable markets. Ours is quiet neighborhood with friendly families. We can also provide free commuting from the CBD and similarly a paid service to the Suva International Airport, all on request.
