8/10 Very Good! (492 reviews)
Don’t come here if you don’t like sand littered with coral and seashells, swimming in amazing coral reefs, watching once in a lifetime sunrise and sunsets, swinging in hammocks between palm trees, and being the honored guests of the most kind, good-humored, talented Fijian hosts, and eating delicious food made from fresh local ingredients by a talented chef.
Were the complainers in other reviews telling the truth?

THE BEDS WERE CLEAN! TRUE.
