“Perfect for families. Perfect location to do everything or nothing!”
Stayed here in early January 2012 for 5 nights, in a 2-bedroom garden view villa. First thing we noticed was the size of the accommodation - it was huge for the 4 of us. The 2-bed villas here are actually a studio room and a 1-bed apartment combined and the separation of the bedrooms meant the 2 adults could quietly retreat away whenever necessary. The garden view villas were the cheaper alternative (to the lagoon view and ocean view ones), but we found these preferable as they were in a quieter area and only 20m from the lagoon pool anyway. They also backed onto a grassy area with an ornamental pond where the 7 year old spent many a time chasing frogs but never out of sight. Service was excellent and attentive. We were missing a remote control in the studio room and mentioned this to housekeeping. Within 10 mins, maintenance had arrived with a replacement. Food was fairly expensive, but still reasonable by Australian standards and you expect that at this type of resort anyway. A cheaper option was one of the many restaurants at Port Denarau which is minutes away by Bula Bus (FJ$7pp for an all day ticket, under 10's free) or private taxi (FJ$5 one way). There are daily activities at the adjoining Sheraton resort, or the related Westin which was a 5 minute walk along the coastal path, and most are complimentary. Or if you prefer, you can simply do nothing (as we did) but enjoy the many pools, the beachfront at the Sheraton, the shopping and spa treatments at the Port, or cocktails/mocktails while listening to live music whilst lying back on daybeds at Chime at the Sheraton. All in all, a perfect venue to unwind and exactly what we needed. Will certainly be back again.
Room Tip: Recommend the Garden View villas for value for money and the quieter location. Lagoon view ones basi...
