The hype
Guests are blown away by the pool complex and the friendly (if slow) staff, but many feel the '5-star' label is premature given the unfinished facilities.

Dlaczego ludzie to uwielbiają
- Seven different pools including a massive infinity edge and family zones
- Ten dining outlets on-site mean you never technically have to leave
- Brand new 'South Wing' suites offer direct pool access and modern finishings
Szybki przegląd: A massive, ambitious resort that's still working through significant growing pains, from construction noise to 'island time' service hiccups.
Przejrzane przez @SalmaSarik55383: I honestly loved the massive pool complex here—it's perfect for chilling. The rooms are modern and comfy, but that construction view was a surprise. Definitely request a room on the left wing to avoid the crane and keep the vibes purely tropical!

Reality check
Dampness and humidity in the rooms is a recurring issue, with multiple reports of musty smells and linens feeling 'wet' due to powerful AC battling tropical air.
- You need a high-quality layover hotel near Nadi Airport
- Your kids could spend 8 hours a day in a pool
- You prefer modern, American-style hotel comforts over rustic Fijian bures
Czystość i Konserwacja
8.2
- Housekeeping: Generally good daily service, though some reviews mention missed balcony sweeping.
- Bathroom hygiene: Modern and clean, but watch out for slow-draining showers in the new wings.
- Maintenance: The biggest issue is humidity control; reports of peeling paint or musty odors in rooms are common.
- Linens & towels: Towels are new and fluffy, but sheets can feel permanently 'damp' due to the climate control issues.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells of fresh tropical flowers; some hallways have a lingering 'new carpet' meets 'mildew' scent.

FAQ i ukryte porady
Wszystko, co naprawdę chcesz wiedzieć, zanim zarezerwujesz.
Is the beach good for swimming?
Not really. It's dark volcanic sand and often silty. It's safe, but unappealing compared to the islands.
Is the construction finished?
No. While the main resort is open, the convention center and final amenities (spa/gym) are under construction until mid-2026.
How far is it from the airport?
Very close—about a 15-minute drive. Taxis are plentiful and cheap (approx $20-30 FJD).
Are the pools heated?
No, but in Fiji's climate, they are naturally warm enough year-round.
Can I walk to other restaurants?
Yes! You can walk along the beach to spots like Sailor's Beach and Club 57.
Is breakfast included?
Only if booked in your rate. The 'Harvest' buffet is extensive but costs extra (~$45 FJD pp) if paying walk-in.
Porady dla wtajemniczonych
- ✨
Walk 5 minutes down the beach to 'Club 57 & Bistro' for sunset drinks at half the price of the hotel bar.
- ✨
The 'Denarau Wing' is actually the refurbished older section (formerly Pullman); for brand new rooms, ask for the South Wing.
- ✨
The hotel offers a 'day pass' for non-guests, so the main pool can get crowded on weekends with locals and expats.
5 rzeczy, które warto wiedzieć przed wyjazdem
💡The 'Ocean View' in some rooms is actually a 'peek-a-boo' view through palm trees and other buildings.
💡Room humidity is a real battle; papers left out can feel damp by morning.
💡The 'Adults Only' pool is often not strictly policed, so don't expect total child-free silence.
💡You can hear planes taking off from Nadi Airport, though it's less intrusive than the construction noise.
💡The on-site convenience store has massive markups; buy water and snacks at the supermarket near the airport before arriving.
