Hotels With Bars in Viti Levu Group, Fiji

1. I arrived at the hotel at 9am, because of the room not yet ready, we wait until at 1pm, the staff said the room is almost check out, will be ready at 2:30pm, we wait for almost 6 hours, until after 3pm, it's the check in time, the staff said the room still not yet ready. OMG... but at last, thank you to Trip.com for resolving the problem; we got a refund for the first night. 2. Room service is really bad; the box of tissues, the shampoo, and the body lotion all need to wait for a day to refill. 3. The lobby is very, very small, does not look like a 5-star hotel, and many people sleep on the sofa; they also wait for a long time to check in. 4. The Fiji Airlines counter is not open all the time, so we had to take the luggage by ourselves and check in at the airport at last. 5. The only good point to stay is that the port is very near, it's convenient for island hopping, and the restaurants are not bad.

We had a very pleasant stay at the DoubleTree by Hilton Fiji - Sonaisali Island. The biggest highlight of this hotel is definitely the staff — everyone was genuinely friendly, welcoming, and always trying to help with a smile. You can tell the team really cares about the guests, and that makes a huge difference. The hotel itself is quite remote and isolated, which can be either a positive or a negative depending on what you are looking for. There is no real private beach for swimming, so don’t expect a classic white-sand Fiji beach resort experience. However, the location is absolutely perfect for sunsets. The evening atmosphere is beautiful, calm, and very relaxing. The breakfast is not really at a 5-star level in terms of variety or quality, but it is still more than sufficient and you will definitely find enough options to start the day well. One thing that really feels outdated though: charging extra for Wi-Fi in the rooms in 2026 is honestly absurd. Hilton, seriously — what decade are we living in? Free room Wi-Fi should be standard at this level nowadays.

Staying at the Lagoon Bure was a pretty good experience. The views were unbeatable and it was very quiet, with a dedicated shuttle service. The infinity pool at the fish bar had amazing views. It's best to rent a car yourself, as the hotel is about a 45-minute drive from Nadi. If you're not used to Western food and want to eat Chinese, taking a taxi to town isn't convenient. However, if you don't mind Western food, this hotel is absolutely perfect.

Wished we’d stayed longer! We used as a quick 1 night stay before departing for an island stay ferry. However after staying here, we’d recommend staying here and doing day trips to islands. Great location only 10 mins coach journey to the ferry port. One of the best breakfast selections we’ve had anywhere in the world - variety & freshness. Fantastic spacious & clean room, loved that specially filtered meant tap water was available, and the free reusable drinks bottle was a nice touch. Didn’t get to use the pool in such a short time, but it looked lovely. Would highly recommend!

The staff and service was great. Loved the breakfast, plenty to eat. The room was clean and big, bed was very comfortable. Well maintained gardens, right on the beach. Beautiful sunsets, plenty of free sunbeds. 2 great swimming pools to enjoy. We loved the themed dinner nights and the Polynesian fire dancers on a Saturday night. Great music, atmosphere and bar. Loved our stay and can't wait to come back ❤️

Check in was after 3pm, check out 10:30 , and you have to get the towel from the reception. Too many rules  plastered in the room as if you are going to rob them. A deposit of FJD50 in cash is required (no drinks in the room whatsoever, just instant coffee). I asked if I can check out before 12nn but was allowed only up to 11am. When I went back to get my luggage, the lady told me that I was supposed to have checked out already, without even asking if I already did. Only the cleaning staff were helpful. Would not recommend.

I really enjoyed my stay here and would happily stay again. The rooms were clean and comfortable, the location was amazing, and the view was beautiful. The staff were also incredibly friendly and helpful, making the experience even better. The only minor issues were that one of the toilets was broken during my stay, and the locker assigned to me was also broken, which was a little inconvenient. Aside from that, I had a great experience and would definitely recommend this hostel.

This is not up to standard with a 5-star resort. Overall it’s a nice stay, but overpriced and don’t go expecting 5-star luxury. It unfortunately has not kept up with the maintenance it has needed over the years. Negatives - had aircon issues and slept without aircon, they moved us rooms to fix this - had a leak above our shower in both tooms - fridge was broken in both rooms - lack of pool towels for number of guests, tried getting a pool towel on multiple occasions to be told they were out. When we eventually got some they were stained. - lack of snorkle gear for guests, we unfortunately couldn’t snorkle because they were always out. We spoke to other guests who went and bought some because they couldn’t get any either - aircon in rooms is very loud - internet access drops out constantly - we couldn’t watch tv as the internet was down for netflix on the tv and we were told we could only watch it on phones or ipads - food menus in the room are dirty and falling apart Positives - most of the staff is really friendly - adults only pool is calm and quiet - good assortment of activities and things to do in the hotel - staff is mostly helpful when you need things We actually tried to refund the end of our stay so we could leave. I wouldn’t recommend it to people and just know if you do stay here it is more like a 3 to 4 star resort.

The entire hotel is built by the sea, and the sea view is beautiful. Unfortunately, the beach and the sea are black, so you can only swim in the hotel's pool. Additionally, the hotel is newly built, and many facilities are still under construction. The room was a bit dirty, and there were small black bugs on the sheets. However, the hotel itself is beautifully constructed, and the staff are very friendly and enthusiastic. The prices for items inside the hotel are not much different from outside prices. Overall, my impression was pretty good, but they really need to improve the cleanliness and complete the hotel facilities.

Overall, the stay was just okay for a short period. The staff were friendly, but the facilities are clearly old and worn out – they really need urgent investment. The bathroom, unfortunately, was a disaster: a simple plastic seat, loose fixtures, and only hand soap. On the positive side: the pool was fine, the people were nice, and the food offered some variety. There are alternatives right outside the hotel, so you're not dependent on it. Conclusion: For a short overnight stay of up to two days – for example, upon arrival or departure – the hotel is acceptable. It's not recommended for longer stays.
