Dere Bay Resort Koro




The weather over the last week, for land lovers has been wonderful, sunshine & a good strong breeze to keep the temperature down.

For boat owners wanting to go out, the winds were pretty strong, the sea rough with some good swells.

Fortunately we got a break in the weather on Friday, so was able to take people over to Koro to look at a site, for a client wishing to build on Koro.

We hadn't been to Koro for over a year, when David first bought the property, over 16 years ago, we had lots of trips over with David to show off the lots to clients.

Since then a resort & many houses have been built on the once Copra Plantation.

When we first started taking clients over, in those days they were mostly Americans, they would fly in from overseas, spend the night at the Hot Springs Hotel, go over early in the morning to spend a few hours looking around the sites, then we would ferry them back to Savusavu & Hot Springs Hotel.

Savusavu Hot Springs Hotel, sit on a hill overlooking Savusavu Bay so has one of the best views of the bay, & is just a short walk into town.

Sometimes the clients would want to spend a few days on the Island, so we would just drop them off & head back home, fishing on the way back.
The resort has its own boat now, so ferry their own clients back & forth.
