This was our third time staying at the Shangri-La and once again we were not disappointed.
We had read reviews about some rooms being mouldy etc. but this was definitely not the case with our room which was very clean and well looked after. The staff are really friendly and always go out of their way to say Bula and help you out if needed. Our check in was smooth and our room was ready on arrival.
As for the resort itself, the beach is paradise and all the pools are great! There are loads of fun activities organised for the kids and our kids (5 and 7) didn’t go to kids club as there was too much other stuff to entertain them. Our kids loved the inflatables at the beach in particular but also loved riding bikes, playing mini golf, playing soccer, softball and touch footy, pool games, snorkeling and parasailing. There is also plenty to do for adults including walking, gym, tennis, massage, jet skiing and golf. We stayed here 6 nights and put simply we never were looking for things to do!
The restaurants are all good except they are all very expensive (more expensive than restaurants in Australia) and many times we ate outside of the resort to reduce costs. A big inconvenience was the lack of laundry facilities which made washing clothes very difficult. The resort charge $35FJ for 20 items which is ridiculously expensive so we took our laundry outside the resort to get washed for much cheaper but obviously this was inconvenient. Surely some washers and dryers could be put in a room somewhere for guests to use.
After staying here we stayed at Port Denerau and can honestly say staying on the Coral Coast is far better and a more Fijian experience.
Overall we loved our stay here and look forward to visiting again soon!

This was our third time here although it’s been a long time and previously with our 2 boys when they were younger. This time it was for a wedding. I was a bit worried reading reviews to be fair. However I didn’t see or experience any issues at all. Yes it needs some refurbishing or repairs and they have started on areas, but nothing is awful. Our room was clean and spacious and comfortable and everything was in working order. The restaurants were all great and we especially enjoyed the adults only breakfast held in Black Marlin bar at present. The staff were all friendly and very helpful and soon learned exactly what we liked I.e. coffees, tea etc each morning. It’s easy to get to Sigatoka town which is worth a look, walk around. Eco Trax is nearby too which was an amazing experience, highly recommend but make sure you book. I can absolutely recommend Shangri-la but yes it’s definitely more suited to families.

Had a wonderful 8 days at Shangri-La, Fiji. We had been there twice previously, but this holiday was by far the best.
We stayed in a Reef Delux room, which was great. It was spacious and well designed with a separate bathroom which had both a bath and a shower ((not over the bath).
The Reef wing is "adult only ", so the pool and restaurant located right at the Reef wing, were both adult only. We also had access to adult only restaurants for breakfast and dinner. While we love children I must admit it was very relaxing and peaceful to dine without them.
Staff in all areas were wonderful....friendly, helpful and thoughtful. They all remembered our names.
