Mavo Lodge & Wilderness Lodge
Thank you, we had a wonderful time!!! Absolutely Brilliant. Would be one of the best holidays in the islands we've had.
We had a great time with him and all the staff there!!! Had the most awesome picnic on Picnic Island. Fishing was great!!
No doubt Tony would have emailed you, he along with Skipper Ramon caught a Sailfish. The fishing was great all round!!
Wilderness was even more amazing, for me there was more walking, snorkelling etc to do there but still very much enjoyed Mavo.
Our boat ride took about 6hrs to Wilderness, tides low and sea a bit rough but was well worth every minute and Steward did an awesome job driving the boat!!!
Called into Franks Island for some supplies on the way, cool place.
Big boat and the woodfire for the shower were out of action while at Wilderness, but neither was a problem!!
Fishing on the smaller boat was great and it's too hot to have a hot shower anyway.
They were working on getting the wood fire fixed for the shower while we were there.
The fishing and snorkelling was awesome!!
Consensus at the moment is that we will be going back to the Solomons next year!!

Maravagi Lodge
Nick,
The waves were around 5 - 6" on the first day. The rest of the week was great, then it dropped to about 2" the last couple of days.
The locals were amazing and the food was fantastic.

Trip was great, what a place, the boat trip was a blast, 2 hours in a small boat with six people stacked with boards, bags & Supplies - Great fun.
Had a ball, surf was good, water fantastic and great company.

Sanbis Resort & Maravagi Lodge
Hey Nick,
A bit late I know but just a short note to say thanks again for
organising our Solo's trip - especially with such short notice.
Trip was awesome as usual - great surf and great people. Maravagi was
great and staff were awesome. Had heaps of fun for only a short
visit. Waves were fun if not epic. Do you know how the Sunny Coast
guys went? Just wondering if they got more swell after we left as the
swell really dropped on our last day.
Sanbis was the highlight - great resort, great staff and a great
host. Hans was more than helpful and I would not hesitate in
recommending Sanbis for a surf trip. Having a fast, reliable boat at
our disposal, with a knowledgeable driver, was a real bonus and added
hours to our surfing time - actually put in 7 straight hours on our
last day!! Paillonge provided for us every day of the trip - 2 to 4ft
with the odd 6 footer every now and then. Heaps of fun.
I have attached some photos from that last trip - nothing spectacular
but couldn't bring myself to stay in the boat for long enough to get
better ones. The waves in the photos were actually only the small to
mid sized waves - sets were a good 2ft bigger.
Cheers,
Brett
