    FIJI - where will we stay? HELP

    we are going to Fiji next April for a wedding, our friends are getting married. they are staying at naviti resort but we've heard some bad reviews about it, i think it is about 3.5 star. we don't mind paying that little bit extra to stay somewhere a bit better, perhaps a 4.5 or 5 star place. we will be staying for 5 nights. i am looking at shangri-la resort and also the warwick resort.

    has anyone been to fiji and can recommend a nice place to stay?

    i would really appreciate this! thanks so much!

    I can recommend the Shangri-la resort, I went there in 2004 and it was so great. Lots of different resturants, nice pools, very kid friendly (although I didn't have any kids with me) and lovely staff.

    I recommend buying any alcohol you may want duty free at the airport in Fiji when you arrive because it can be a bit expensive at the resorts.

    Enjoy it's a lovely place to holiday.

    Yeah the Shangri La is ok, good for kids. I wasn't impressed with the food though, usual bistro stuff..

    Our DD will be 15 months then. I won't be leaving her at all in a kids club as such but will definately take her in the pool. What about Outrigger? Anybody stayed there? All alcoholic drinks are included in the price if we stay at Naviti Resort but we're not big drinkers anyway.

    We had our honeymoon in Fiji and stayed at the Shangri-La resort. It was just perfect! we went in 2005, so not sure how much has changed.....but there were 3 different pools, quite a few restaurants, tour desk, money exchange, games room, sooooo many activites/sports/fun competitions etc. And their kids club was awesome! the ladies who worked in there were so happy and friendly.
    I remember the meals being a bit exxy, but their buffet was great! so much variety and everything seemed really fresh. But their alcohol was very over priced so I highly recommend buying duty free as someone else mentioned.
