I’ve been here 15 years ago when it was under different ownership. So I returned to find it to be very boring & undeveloped. Price changes for food daily here, it goes up 50% depending on the crowd. The food is just okay if you’re really hungry you can eat it. I didn’t understand not getting a room key to lock your door, we were told they lost them all so we had to leave the door unlocked at all times. This place needs a facelift. The good news you would love the staff & the village next door. They will feed you if you’re hungry & personally I was starving

We really enjoyed the friendly staff, mostly locals from nearby village. The whole property was well kept and offer a variety of activities. The negatives were that in some booking places, it is listed as an adults-only property, when it actually accepts children. It wasn’t a deal breaker, but unexpected. Also, make sure you go over and keep tabs on what you order, so there will be no surprises at checkout.

Absolutely awesome resort

This was one of the best experiences I have had with Hotels.com. Absolutely amazing from the moment I got to the property, to the minute I left. The beach was right at the foot of the property, the pool was awesome, the staff remembered my name, and Miki, the front desk hostess even lent me her phone charger. Dinner was great, rooms had amazing views. Absolutely worth the adventure.

We waited almost 2 hours bc check in time on this platform is 12:30 but in reality it is at 2. They gave us welcoming drink which was lovely. The staff were approachable but seemed too busy and out of touch sometimes. It was a lovely environment.

Crusoe's Retreat is a beautiful resort area on the Southern side of Viti Levu. It's remote for a relaxing getaway but still close enough to the cities for activities (about 2 hours from Nadi and 1.5 from Suva and about 40 mins from Pacific Harbor). The staff are all so lovely and really make you feel welcome. We went in the "off" season (March) so there were not a lot of people at the resort, but the staff still had fun activities planned for the guests. They are also great about assisting with arranging for pickups from the resort for buses for excursions. The food was delicious and the area is just gorgeous. Each night we went down by the water to watch the sunset.

I loved this place! The staff were so welcoming, friendly, helpful, fun and accommodating. It was awesome to be next to the village and to also be off the main road and secluded. The tour options were good, the on site activities were great, the food was yummy and the bures were very comfortable. It was sad to leave and I would go back in a heartbeat!

Plenty of activity for those interested. rooms were clean and new comfy beds with aircon and fan. nice to have a spa at end of day. The 2 young men running activities were awesome!

The cocktail bar right on the waterfront with stunning sunset views was unforgettable. The staff are very friendly and the food was excellent. The facilities don’t disappoint either. A hot spa after a long snorkel on the coral reef next to the resort was most enjoyable! I will certainly be coming to stay again when I return to Fiji next year!
