Very glitzy, and majority of staff where great. How ever the breakfast options were the worst I have experienced in my 20 plus years of travelling and living in Fiji. In addition, we have paid for one room twice, and they refuse to refund so have stolen a considerable amount of our money.

They had no television during the Olympics so I had to leave That's the only reason I love the place other than that and Sarah and the bartender at check in was wonderful I don't like that you can't bring your own booze policy and all their stupid rules that you wouldn't know about until you got in your room and read the book if I get charged for anything extra we got a problem.
