Day 103 - Too Good to be True?

We slept in a little then made our way down to the beach, which didn’t take long as the beach is right outside the hostel’s café. Here we sunbathed for a while before the heat took its toll and we made our way back to the room.


Danny decided, in all his wisdom, that, because the weather would be bad in Nadi for the rest of our stay, we should look to spent more time on Mana Island where the weather is set to be sunny. Danny located an “awesome deal” on a fancy hotel using a website that offered a room for half of the normal rate. After comparing with other sites and this one being the clear winner he went ahead and confirmed it… Only to then realise the small print. The bookings on this site are exclusive of surcharges and taxes etc and so once these were added the price was bumped back up to what all the websites were offering! Danny was not a happy chappy and could not cancel either due to the fact that the small print was there to read and we would lose half of the money if we did cancel… Oh well, two nights in a posh hotel it is; just with no food!

After sulking for a while Danny came around and then we both went down for some cheap food.


Moral of the day – Always read the small print. Or. Don’t book anything after too much time in the sun!
