The staff were amazingly friendly and made us feel very welcome. There is a very relaxed vibe about the place. The two swimming pools are extremely well maintained. The reason for a good not an excellent is that the resort is looking somewhat tired, the food was very average, and simple requests were forgotten (like a booking for a massage and a request for beach towels). However, given the price point I’d come again, especially given the lovely staff.

Service was good. Kitchen was closed before 7.24pm when we arrived as there were hardly any guests. They managed to whip something for us. Quiet, peaceful surroundings, with a good pool. Bit secluded and not much to do or see. Rooms were spacious and clean. Good for a night or 2.

I liked the free DVD rental to watch in the room, since the property is across the Queen's Road from the beach and not so easy to go for a stroll or swim. I also liked that there ware no mosquitos in the room, since it was sprayed just after I checked in, although the toxic fume made me nautious. I didn't like the insecurity of having to write down my credit card details on a paper for the security deposit, despite having given it to Expedia.

friendly staff was the main bonus and was enough communal areas for us to make friends with some other families which was great so positives is it has a friendly, relaxed vibe. definitely a place to stay as a base to cut costs in Fiji however, I was disappointed on arrival as the pictures made it look more upscale/better decor than it is. also there are many older reviews which made it hard to know what we were really getting before arriving. breaksfast was great, but dinner really wasn't great and was expensive, although there is an amazing local restaurant down the road, half the price double the portions. TV didn't work - needed to put on DVDs kids pool water colour wasn't great- didn't go in I think pre COVID would have been great where you could go over to Shangri-La. now they don't let people not staying there in it detracts from gecko being a place to stay as you have to go by car to everywhere- nothing else is nearby. there were other beachfront places which were similar prices which it retrospect could have chosen but had gone with the option of going to ShangriLa the cultural night however with dance and fire show was really good. its an ok place to stay if you just want a place to sleep however I think they are rebuilding the cultural village they used to have. once this is up and running again and a few revamps I think it will be a good place to stay at for at least a few nights and definitely does make the budget stretch further in Fiji

Pros- ez parking, breakfast and dinner we had was very good! Cons- do not go at check in time, according to 1 lady, check is around 2ish,,,,check out is not later than 11 or or get ready to be liberated from your $$$$$ room isnt ready,, we got in at almost 4 after having to leave the place to burn some time. No Wi-Fi as advertised,, even though I asked twice at front desk while checking in, other people had same compliant and 1 of the ladies asked if I had to I can use my own SIM card or buy 1 like she doing me a favor. Rooms too small to accommodate 4

初めてのフィジー
家族3人で1週間滞在しました。食事はフィジーにしてはお手頃価格です。部屋は広くてまあまあ綺麗。エアコンも強いし熱いお湯も問題なし。wifiはレストランエリアのみ無料です。速度はまあまあ動画も問題なしです。ピールも2箇所。週3回ポリネシアシヨーがあります。前のシャングリラに比べて5／1以下の値段でお得感あり。ただし車が無いとどこに行くのも大変です。近くの街Sigatoka迄10分くらい、なんでも揃います。お土産から日用品まで。

We had an awesome stay, the service was amazing, the staff were very friendly and efficient. The cleanliness of the environment was great. I would encourage my family and friends to stop over here. It is just a walk away from the Junction restaurant, one of the best restaurant in the area and just near the Shagrila Fijian Resort.

Great resort with amazing value for money
Fantastic experience in a beautiful resort with super friendly staff, all the comforts one needs to enjoy a holiday. If you are after 5 star full luxury pampering by staff focused on getting as much money out of you as possible then this is not your place. If you want a very comfortable room, with access to 2 pools, a great restaurant, a bar staffed by friendly people, a front desk that goes out of its way to help you, and beautiful tropical environment at a very reasonable price, then go to Geckos. During our 1 week stay we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We felt like family members as the staff learned our names, were super friendly and helpful, and went out of their way to make our holiday enjoyable. For the price of one night at some other resorts we had a week of comfort at great service at Geckos. The food at the in house restaurant was first class, ranging from Lobster Thermidor to a fruit platter it was all very tasty, served professionally and with a smile. The cocktails and drinks were great value, and the front desk helped us organise tours and transport faultlessly. Highly recommended!

We stayed only once night and it was a good choice. It's an older property, we liked that it wasn't super modern and everything is in really good shape. Luckily we stayed on a night with the dance / fire performance, what a treat. The dinner menu and drink pricing was somewhat high but it's acceptable if you're getting the show. But if not...? Check in had a minor hiccup when they gave us a room with a non-functional A/C unit but it was quickly remedied. One of the pools was under construction, and some of the grounds need some TLC but overall would be happy to stay again. Gecko's is definitely more traditional Fiji than the Shangri-La across the road.

It is a good place to stay when in this part of Fiji. The rooms and the resort have been very clean and the staff friendly. Only the limited (or extra charged) WiFi might be unfavourable for some travellers.
