Hotele z: bar w Mamanuca Islands, Fiji

Matamanoa Island was the highlight of our 2 week Fiji trip. Thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay on the Island - this was the true Fiji you dream of, warm/hot weather, blue skies, sunshine, lapping clear blue ocean, snorkelling off the beach, beautiful infinity swimming pool, relaxing meals & comfortable accommodation along with friendly staff. Great overall resort experience & enjoyed the relaxing evening entertainment, staff singing/guitars & serenade singing as well as knife throwing/dancing & fire show. The restaurant is only one which some may find a little restrictive but after travelling around Viti Levu & other resorts for 10 days prior, not havibng to choose or decide where to go to eat was actually kinda nice. Breakfasts were American style, fruit & pastries/choices of cereal/starters & then cooked options of egg styles & fish - we ate a lot of fish !! All brought to your table & included in room rate. Great substantial breakfast, making you feel very lazy for the rest of the day. We did some snorkelling of beach (I stayed close to shore) but hubby went out further to reef & saw some big fish/starfish etc. We took out the hobbycat briefly one afternoon, would liked to have had time to do again. Took the guided snorkelling trip one afternoon - with 20 of us / 2-3 guides. Out to deeper reef...I was very nervous but stayed close to hubby & guide & after a while really relaxed & thoroughly enjoyed - really recommend this little trip. A friend from NZ who had just been, also recommended this trip. Others on island were doing the Village trip to another island but we just ran out of time & had seen quite a few villages on Viti Levu. I could have easily stayed 5-7 nights - was just really wound down & just loved it.

All in all a good hotel to recommend further. However I am struggling a bit with the organizational structure. Why is beachcomber not customer oriented in a way to arrange pick up directly from the airport? They leave customers allone just mentioning the office at the harbor. So you have to deal on your own with all those sharks that are trying to take out all your money from your pocket to get to Denarau. Then there are those so called „scheduled“ and „non-scheduled“ departures whereas the second part cost you the almost the double price. There is no real explanation why it is that way you just have to accept or you stay on the main island. So in the morning we were suddenly told the 5pm departure is not taking place and we have to wait for the 7pm departure. We just arrived from the airport and there was no other option then to wait. Being a family with 3 and 5 year old children, coming from a long-term flight, you cannot imagine how terrible and impatient they can be except you are parents. So we staid on our costs, lost the afternoon we wanted to stay on island, without any real excuse or potential compensation. Then the stuff over there is obviously trying their utmost to make your stay feeling as comfortable as possible. But we don‘t understand how fast they csn get overhelmed if you start asking questions. For example, when you say please share one cup of hot chocalate by 2. you always get 2 full cups of hot chocolate. When you ask for äa extra plate at dinner you can spin a coon wether or not you will receive an extra plate. Once they completely mixed up our meal with aünother table and we haüd to wait longer to get our meals served. At least there we got a free of charge drink to compensate for this mess. There should be 3 times a düay complementary snorkeling tours. Out of 3 days ir happend only one day. In the second they morning tour they mentioned something about engine problem. On the third day there was even no official comment about it. We booked the full pension offer, but drinks like coffee are not included. To get your free of charge water you have to make yourself your way through the restaurant to the bar and then the way back so that every single guest can see that you don‘t want to afford a drink at the restaurant. There are some tiny things here and there they could do better from a customer point of view. For example excavator work at the beach front side during the day, exactly throughout our stay. Construction work on the island, including drilling noises also during evening times. For all those things there is no communication or excuses at all. Quality of food is very good and the location us such is beautiful. Shows are cool, we very liked the kava sessions with dance or to see how lovo is preparred.

Facilities: The facilities in the room are OK, some furniture is a bit old Hygienic: The room is not bad, but the bathroom is outside, there will be cockroaches 🦎 small bugs Environment: Every day is like in heaven, opening the window is the sparkling sea Service: The service is very good, eat well every morning, noon and evening, you can explore different islands and beaches. There will be special people to take you boating, snorkeling, and be responsible for your safety.

Stayed for 2 nights and felt that the house was clean. There was no hot water for showering on the first day, but there was hot water on the second day. The living environment is good, you can see the sea from the window, and the hotel has good greenery. The food was generally good. I had four main meals, one was simple, and the other three were rich and self-service, with meat and vegetables, moderately salty. Breakfast is a little simple, with juice, milk, bread slices, etc. You don't have to pay extra for the fried eggs you want. Drinking water is provided for each meal and is provided by yourself. The service attitude is also OK.

This hotel has a very good value for money, and the service is also very good. When entering and leaving the island, there will be people playing guitar to welcome and see you off. Treasure Island is also a treasure island, very quiet, and the scenery is beautiful.

I saw some reviews saying this Sheraton is better than the one on the main island, and I agree, especially regarding the rooms. The beachfront rooms we stayed in had amazing views and felt very private. However, this hotel is much smaller than the main island's Sheraton. The buffet food was just okay, but the à la carte options were decent. For those on a full-board package, lunch and dinner can be ordered à la carte, with three courses per person. The Sheraton's service, environment, and hygiene were all excellent.

We really enjoyed our stay at Serinity sands glamping. The glamping tents are brand new and really fancy!  The infinity pool was stunning with sea views. The sunbeds were the comfiest. The decor around the pool/ restaurant is stunning.  Great to have access to a gym whilst on the island.  We loved the turtle feeding & the activities they provided each day! We really enjoyed having a tea and cookie in the afternoon also, was a nice treat! The staff were very friendly everywhere we went and always helpful!  Thanks  Matt

The hotel is in a great location, but it's too old, so if you want to enjoy the hotel, you'll be disappointed. The kitchen is just a decoration, you can't cook, but it's strange that it has kitchen utensils. If you don't have any requirements for the room, this hotel is first-class. First of all, it includes meals, although it's not delicious, it's enough to fill you up. Breakfast and dinner are buffets, and lunch is a set meal. The hotel provides a lot of free entertainment, and it's quite fun. Whether it's going to the sea bar or snorkeling, it won't disappoint you.

Overall it's pretty good, the scenery is beautiful, the room is big and clean, the snorkeling activity is worth it, we saw dolphins and turtles, most of the staff are very warm and friendly, especially the farewell song is very nice and touching, but don't expect to get the same price resort service. However, on the first night of check-in, the hotel fire alarm ran out of power and made a very sharp and harsh sound. We were really tired, but it woke us all up, and it rang every once in a while, and we couldn't sleep. We called the front desk and they said they would call someone, but they didn't come for half an hour. In the end, we had to remove the battery ourselves. The hotel just said sorry lightly without any compensation. In addition, we booked two orders for the same room type, which is equivalent to staying for one more night. We contacted Ctrip customer service and the hotel to communicate that the original room could be unchanged. When we arrived, the staff said that we needed to change rooms. Well, it's okay, I can understand it. I confirmed with the front desk the night before that I wanted to change rooms. In the morning, I packed my luggage and went to the front desk, and they said that I didn't need to change. There was no notice, and they even said they wanted to change rooms the night before.

My recent stay at Plantation Island Resort was absolutely delightful! The location was stunning, with pristine beaches and crystal-clear waters perfect for swimming and snorkeling. The resort itself was immaculate, and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The facilities were top-notch, offering a variety of activities for all ages. I especially enjoyed the delicious food and the lively entertainment. Overall, I highly recommend Plantation Island Resort for a relaxing and unforgettable vacation.
