Accessed by Fiji air on an easy 1 hr flight from Nadi on a small plane - we chose the ‘pay in Fjd ‘ option in their website & strangely it was significantly cheaper than paying in Aud - A bonus! What is there to fault at Savasi resort? Very little, it is the most wonderful atmosphere in a serene setting. There are a number of things that put this resort at the top of our many Fiji trips. it’s a combination of the beautiful environment, the staff who are amazing, the villas are authentic Fijian and the food was faultless. We stayed for a six day package and the fact that food is included here is fantastic. Having travelled all over the world, we can confidently say this food was up there with the best. No matter what cultural food they were cooking, it was a A1! We booked a 1 bed cliff top villa direct with the resort and were lucky enough to be upgraded to a 2 bedroom – villa 5 which was set back out of the wind, but still had sun on the pool most of the day. It was heaven! Take an eyepatch if you are woken easily as the villas are positioned for the views, so don’t have full window coverings. The only thing we found is maybe the air cons will need re- gassing as they struggled to cool the rooms fully at night when it was hot. The resort is kept pristinely clean and we noted that the small things, like staff brush all the many paths with a broom rather than using a noisy leaf blower, ensuring the peacefulness. They offer activities if you want to do a lot and you can relax if not. But what makes a resort like this has to be its staff. You can feel when people are happy where they work and the balance is just right here. They are the most beautiful people always friendly and willing to help, while professional and humble. A resort is only as good as the staff they hold and the owners are lucky to have people like this as the face of Savasi resort. We had a birthday dinner in the special cave area & the staff came & sang with a bday cake which was a lovely touch! After more than two decades of visiting Fiji, we can say we will be back – it felt like family. Next time we will time our flights to go straight thru to Savasi from home, as international & domestic terminals are side by side. Vinaka vakalevu
The Koro Sun Resort was an absolutely fabulous travel experience for our honeymoon! The room, the staff, and the amenities were all wonderful, and we recommend this trip to any couple or family looking for a fun tropical vacation. We stayed in an Edgewater Bure and enjoyed breathtaking views of the water and sunsets. The hammock was absolutely our favorite place to sit/lay and enjoy the day. we also loved looking into the water at the marine life and the reef. We ordered the Honeymoon Package, which included a wonderful beach picnic and romantic dinner, and we highly recommend it. The activities at the resort were wonderful. The kayak tours, spa services, and smaller activities (like the fire show and basket weaving) were fun. The activities off-resort were great as well—the waterfall hike was great, as were the cocoa farm trip and the trip into town. The food was delicious. We appreciated placing our orders for lunch and dinner ahead of time, and we got our money’s worth out of the all-inclusive package. The meals at Palm Grove were all great, and the meals at Sand Bar were perfect for eating outside by the pool. Our best pieces of advice: things like alcohol, off-resort excursions, and trips via the dive shop will cost money. However, they're all generally worth it (although the alcohol was a little pricey). Bring water shoes! It's fun to poke around the water during low tide. But if you have sensitive feet, bring water shoes to make life much easier. There's plenty of wi-fi in the main areas of the resort but around the Villas/Bures, it's a little spottier. Also, the golf course isn't the best golf course, especially the last 3-4 holes. But it's fun to just pitch and putt around and walk around outside. We highly recommend this trip to any couple or family!
