Pros:

Beautiful property, amazing with great staff.

The location is a bit outside of lautoka city (15 min drive) but its perfect for a relaxing stay.

They where well prepared for our arrival and the staff went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable and they made sure we where well taken care off especially as first timers in fiji.

Cons:

The door to our bure was a bit annoying to lock and unlock (maybe there was a trick to it)

Fiji Orchid was a gorgeous, mountainous retreat with very welcoming hosts
Pros:

It was a very relaxing, private mountain retreat after spending a week at the beach at other resorts. Staff was friendly, welcoming and helpful. There was a beautiful pool area and lush, green surroundings. Breakfast in the morning was wonderful.

Cons:

There was supposed to be wi-fi in our villa, but we couldn’t connect to it. We rented a car and the road into the resort had some large potholes we had to maneuver around.

Paradise near Nadi airport
Pros:

This hotel has only 6 rooms (burres), I loved the feeling of being secluded in paradise and also conveniently located near to Nadi airport. The staff were so friendly, and the free pick up/drop off services were extremely helpful after arriving from 24hrs of flights. I came away feeling very relaxed! The food was also delicious!

Cons:

I loved this place, but a mosquito net would have been welcome, as I did get bitten in bed a lot.

Quiet and relaxing but isolated and could not walk anywhere so reliant on transport,
Pros:

It was very quiet and relaxing in a tropical setting. Only small with adults only and a maximum of six couples.Meals relatively good. Ester and Mere and Jenner worked extremely hard and were always delightful and friendly despite long work hours.

Cons:

Advised safety could not be guaranteed if we wandered to local beach. Got charged twice for accomodation and had to go through a long refund process to get funds returned. Had to give notice of intent for meals and choose morning of being served.

Gorgeous serene location with a lovely team who makes you feel at home
Pros:

Such a gorgeous bure - complete retreat in nature away from the business of the resorts! Very intimate and peaceful. The glass walls made for stunning views. Pore serenity. The team were all lovely and made so much effort to make you feel at home! Esta, in the restaurant was especially kind and we had some lovely chats over breakfast and lunch! I came as a solo person and didn’t once feel lonely. Thanks so much! I just wish I’d had more time there to soak it all up and take up the team’s offer for excursions! Will definitely stay again when I come back :) also loved the coffee and tea selection in the room :) it was so cosy!

Cons:

Nothing to not like! The occasional car goes past on the neighbouring road to the village - seen other people mention this as a negative but it’s barely noticeable and it is infrequent, so don’t be put off by it.

Whilst not a big menu as this property has only 6 Burre the food was beautifully fresh and well presented cannot recommend highly enough wether as transit accommodations lot for a few days rest and relaxation

Pros:

Super cute, super unique. Very fun experience. We stayed right after a cyclone, so there was a bit of vegetation damage so we didn't get the full effect, but even so the grounds are very pretty and the place feels very secluded. The staff is excellent, and went the extra mile, is very friendly and efficient. The food is good (Just FYI Fiji is not a culinary tourism destination so food was excellent by comparison). Excellent value for the cost. The villas are very solid despite being "tentish" and the driver was very helpful and very good. I would not hesitate to stay here again... and would pick it over almost any other accommodation in or around Nadi, despite the slight distance, and we saw allot of them. BTW, the bathrooms were amazing, and the windows around the mirror to the outside were super fun.

Cons:

The vegetation between the "tents" was less than I imagined and was hoping for so you couldn't just leave the blinds open and wander your room like you were Tarzan and Jane in the jungle :). That may have been partially a function of the cyclone vegetation damage, so I don't downgrade my rating... but more vegetative privacy between the units would have been nice. I was also disappointed that the shower in our room had a solid panel to the exterior, instead of a glass wall like the pictures, I was kind of looking forward to the faux jungle shower. But overall it was very beautiful and great fun.

A true oasis nearby Nadi Airport
Pros:

The highlight of my visit to Fiji is my stay at The Fiji Orchid. The small size and amazing staff made it a perfect place for me to wind down after an active holiday.

The staff is very attentive and made the experience at this well maintained and beautiful property that much better.

The kitchen staff made very tasty and varied Fijian food made with locally sourced ingredients.

Thank you to the whole team for this authentic experience!

Be sure to dine at the restaurant
Pros:

My wife and I stayed four nights and loved it. The gardens are just magnificent and really well curated. Unfortunately, the orchids that give the resort its name were "resting" when we were there; apparently the peak flowering time is August.

We ate at the hotel every night and that was a big part of the experience. The nightly offering at Raymond's is worth staying in for as the menu changes every night and the talented chef makes excellent use of locally sourced ingredients including the freshest fish we've had in a while.

The prices (entrees 28-30 FJD and mains 48-50 FJD) are higher than the usual Lautoka pizza and burger options (which you'd have to arrange transport to get to) but are very reasonable once converted to AUD/NZD and VFM.

The hotel provides an inclusive shuttle to and from the airport and excursions or simple trips into Lautoka can be arranged at a nominal fee.

The bure contained everything we wanted and was restocked with bottled water every day. And we couldn't speak more highly of the staff, who go above and beyond to ensure you feel welcome.
