    {"0":"A great addition to the the crafts in Fiji. Even though they were not blowing any glass when we were there due to raw material stock shortages, Peter and his team made us feel very welcome.\n\nThe coconut pieces blew my mind. Great spot for an artisan studio nestle up above the beach in the coral coast.\n\nWe bought a carafe and matching tumblers to bring back home, all expertly wrapped and protected for the flight. Card facilities will allow you to shop up some very unique pieces.\n\nOnly a short walk from the Outrigger resort. Highly recommended and bring a good camera.","2":["0","189"]}

    {"0":"We visited Hot Glass Fiji on Nov 1st 2022. Our son wanted to give this a go and it was an amazing experience! The place is just brilliant, set in the coastal town of Korotogo, an easy drive down from Nadi. Peter, assisted by Sam, provided a demo of the process to us and then guided our son with his own personal creation, ensuring he got to actually do the shaping, blowing and crafting of his unique piece. Their expert advice, patience and careful safety support made the process truly amazing - the end result being a beautiful piece that our son treasures. We cannot thank Peter enough for his expert help and support. It was a great experience to see, touch and learn about the process and all the details of the materials and techniques involved. Hot Glass Fiji was just fantastic! Make sure you do this experience. I want to go back!","2":["0","240"]}

    I was fortunate enough to have this experience. This company and artist experience is one of a kind. With the back drop of the south Pacific Ocean crashing on the beach 100m away you get this therapeutic surreal moment. Alice and Alex run an incredible shop and factory. Their staff are incredible well trained and friendly, so much so, that within under an hour they have you blowing and moulding glass as if you are a member of their community. I haven’t had this much fun and sense of calm in such a long time. Glass blowing is the closest thing to watching real magic you will get to and you must try it here.

    Wonderful art here that you can buy. We bought a lovely starfish piece to remind us of our holiday in Fiji. As everywhere in Fiji, staff were polite, welcoming and very professional in wrapping delicate objects for our journey home 🤩

    An absolute must do of an experience of staying in the area. Peter and the rest of the guys are so great with guiding you through the process of glassblowing, making you feel comfortable, and helping you to create a meaningful souvenir to take home. Such beautiful work in a really beautiful studio.

    This was one of the high points of our trip to the Coral Coast. I did a glass-blowing class, and they guided me through a complex process with kindness and professionalism. Beautiful location, too! I highly recommend the experience. I’m pretty happy with the finished results, too - my glass turned out spectacularly. It will be a prized possession.

    We were at Hot Fiji Glass to experience the glass blowing lesson and to look at the wonderful pieces made by Alice and her team. We did this with our 10 yr old daughter who absolutely loved the lesson and was able to create her own piece based on her own inspiration with help from Peter and the others. The lesson is an explanation about the glass blowing proces whilst watching a demonstration. This made it fun to watch, easy to follow and not too lengthy. Followed by blowing your own glass piece with the help and guidance of the team. Amazing to see how from nearly nothing you can make something so quickly. However to see the final result the glass needs to cool down. Alice and her team make beautiful pieces. From artwork to everyday useful pieces inspired by everything Fiji has to offer .We brought back our own glasses and bought a beautiful piece. The team made sure it was really well wrapped and survived our two day the plane journey home to the Netherlands in our haul luggage. We did ask airline to put fragile labels on the cases, if that makes any difference?! We would highly recommend to visit Fiji Hot Glass if you are looking for a fun and a bit different activity and/or if want to take something special home from your trip to the Fijian islands.

    {"0":"An amazing and fun experience with Alice and her team at Hot Glass Fiji. We were particularly impressed with the level of instruction, and the care taken with each stage of the process - which resulted in us taking home a lovely piece of art that we had made ourselves! Such a great day out!","2":["0","293"]}

    We visited Hot Glass Fiji during our recent visit to the Coral Coast and did the glass blowing workshop. As well as being great fun, it gives a really good overview of what’s involved. And you take away something unique that you were part of creating! Super friendly and knowledgeable staff (and very patient despite my clumsiness) guided us through the steps and you have a really hands on experience. Our 10 yr old could also get stuck in and she loved it! On top of this, the creations of Hot Glass Fiji are on display and can be bought. These are really works of art… so beautiful! We’d definitely recommend going along to visit and do the workshop. It’s something really unique to add to your Fiji adventure. Brilliant!

    {"0":"Incredible experience - a must when visiting Fiji! Alice and Pita made me feel so welcome and supported me throughout the glass blowing so I felt safe throughout. It\u2019s situated on a beautiful property overlooking the ocean. At the end you\u2019re able to take your unique glass home so you can always remember your trip to Fiji. Couldn\u2019t recommend highly enough :)","2":["0","234"]}

    {"0":"We would class the Glass blowing lesson run at Hot Glass as a 'must do' experience for anyone who is creative. Alice,Peter and the staff ensure that you are supported in the process to produce a great looking piece whilst learning some of the how and why of glass blowing. Well worth the time and money.\nIf you're not interested in having a go yourself, we would still recommend a visit to the gallery to watch others at work or to purchase a meaningful and quality souvenir of your time in Fiji.","2":["0","238"]}

    This was an experience of a lifetime to be able to create my own vase with the help and Peter and Sam. Very friendly, great communication through the whole booking process and a highlight of our trip. I love my vase and the happy memories it’s holds. Highly recommend visiting!!
