Considering where you are, there are almost no hotels worth mentioning. There are both good and bad points to this property. The good: Free WIFI avaiilable. It generally works but the speed is slow and if you plan to upload images, forget it. There is no way that will happen with digital camera-sized photos. Theyhave working air conditioning along with... More

I was recently in Tarawa and happened to stay at Fema Lodge. I was pleasantly surprised. My room (in the *Old Wing") was absolutely spotless and cleaned daily. The shared kitchen and bathroom were also kept clean and tidy. There were two other guests staying there who had previously stayed elsewhere in Tarawa, and both agreed that Fema Lodge was... More

I've stayed three times now, but also stayed at Lagoon Breeze (not the best choice) and Otintai which is about equal in amenities, however Fema has great beds in the new wing (and slowly upgrading in the old) and better internet connectivity included in the price. Although the price is $10 more, the new wing doesn't have hot water, not... More

It's hard to find good places to stay in Kiribati. Fema Lodge is a small family hotel with great staff. The lodge is clean and the staff are great. They have a cook on site so you can eat at the hotel. All the rooms have a phone so all you need to do is pick it up and let... More

The rooms were very clean and had air conditioning which is necessary because it is so hot. The hotel services include breakfast and has a small restaurant. Guests can also use the kitchen and has Wi-fi connection for free. Laundry facilities are also available for free. The staff is nice and very helpful. I loved my stay there so much... More
