The Naviti Resort

.

Great place to stay, clean, everythin needed on site and staff are amazing. Its a very much A family resort, so lots of children and activites which is wonderful if thats what youre looking for.

Very outdated, buffet was not kid Friendly, food was ordinary. Kids activities were good but needs a big overhaul and better food.

People were lovely and friendly. The adults ocean front cabin room bathtub was old and manky - not the deep soak as described, bathroom in need of renovation. Buffet food below average, poor quality. Restaurants were nice. Adult bar was nice. No other adult only section or pool. Reflecting this resort is so far away from airport and denaru, those were long travels. Next time I would stay closer - Coral coast islands out from denaru were great to see. The staff made a good point that rather than a 3am get up , we could have stayed the night at their sister hotel closer to the airport for a more humane start to the day. Resort grounds were ok, not much to see in the glass bottom off the coast of the resort. No decent beach - mostly mud bottom in front of hotel.

Great staff, great vibe and overall a brilliant stay. Will be back!

Perfect place to relax. Has everything you need. Food was delicious. But, its a huge place and was a bit difficult for my elderly mum to get around.

The property is true to the advertised photos which is great. It's beachside and has a very relaxing vibe. There was a range of activities that you can choose to participate in if you wish too. The pool was always too packed that you could never get a lounge chair to just relax. Possibly investing in some extra chairs would be great. There are no locks on the bathroom door which has wooden slates (not sound proof) which makes it super awkward if you are doing a poo 💩 when someone else is in the room. Apart from the above mentioned, great experience we would come back again.

Most staff were really friendly. Staff loved greeting the children and the children's club had lots of activities. Swim up bar was really novel. Area surrounding the resort was filthy. Rubbish everywhere and we ended up doing a couple of beach cleans.

I suspect anyone else reading reviews on this property will have been confused; they vary so wildly. Expectation management is the key here. This is not a 5* resort: think 3* Spanish all-inclusive. The lobby area is beautiful but once around the corner heading to the rooms, it is clear Naviti is lacking renovation investment. The rooms are ok but missing bits depending on which room you get. The grounds are beautiful but the pool needs shutting and totally renovating. There is no way it would still be open in Europe with the missing cement etc. Also to run out of towels by lunchtime is unacceptable. The all-inclusive was very average. Food was rarely piping hot and the selection was limited. The drinks were ok but the rules petty. No cocktails, but you could have all the ingredients separately. No tea or coffee outside breakfast time; no bottles of water at all. Service was also very slow with a 50min wait one night. We tried out both adults-only speciality restaurants which were included. Service was better but still chaotic. The Chinese was significantly better than the other. One bright note was the staff in general: they must be the friendliest people on this planet. All operate on island time but they have the biggest smiles. From our exposure to outside the resort, the cost of living is low in Fiji, so with a turnover in the region of half a million Fiji dollars a day, the resort owners can afford to spend some money on this resort and lift it up to 4* status.

Staff were very kind
