Wonderful service
Pros:

All of the staff at the hotel were so kind and compassionate as I was staying in Lautoka to arrange my Uncle's funeral. From the front desk, to the porters, the restaurant staff and housekeeping, the service was above and beyond. The room was lovely, the location excellent, the pool gorgeous. Everything was clean and well looked after. Our stay with you made everything so much easier for us. We will be back. Thank you so much.

THE BEST EXPERIENCE
Pros:

This was my first time to Fiji, i did not know what to expect. We chose Tanoa Waterfront as we wanted to be immersed in local culture and outside of Nadi. The hotel itself is beautiful, its located right across from the sea so the morning views are beautiful. Its also 2 min walk to lautoka town but its surroundings are very quiet and tranquil. The rooms are standard but worth the value. Air conditioning in the room is amazing. What was also surprising was the strength of the wifi throughout the hotel and its unlimited. Our rooms were serviced everyday and were never short of clean towels and linen. Overall the hotel itself was always clean and tidy. I also made use of the beauty spa and had a pedicure and a lomi lomi and that itself
was top notch. My favourite thing about our whole experience was the staff, i felt like part of family from day one. As a pacific islander myself I thought i knew what to expect but let me tell you the friendliness of the staff was at a level i have never experienced before. There was always smiles on faces and always a warm greeting even if walking down the corridors. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!!! I will definitely return and visit the family ❤️

Vinaka to my fijian family, David, Adi, Sam, Kolini, Lois, Ana, Queenie, my cheeky brother from the bar, im sorry if i forgot your name, just know you have a place in my heart.
