Family happy place
Beautiful resort with happy and very friendly staff. Kids are welcomed and we were always greeted with a smile. Make sure you have a birthday there and they will sing their song for you.

Great family friendly affordable resort. Great time to go as it wasn’t too packed and loungers/seats/bikes were always readily available. Very clean room & ammenities, gardens/grounds maintained beautifully. Easy transport to and from airport to island. An easy, affordable family holiday. Just pray for good weather, it’s a little boring without the sunshine and beware of the sea lice!

Not Impressed
Stayed here over Christmas and unfortunately struck a rainy week. We used to stay at Plantation regularly when our kids were little and came back this time with the Grandkids. Grandkids loved it even in the rain but we found the whole hospitality side needs a shake up. We arrived on late ferry because of Air New Zealand was delayed. On checking in were told even though we were unable to book a restaurant reservation we would be fed. Yeah Right after unhappy discussions we were then sorted out by someone who overruled the young officious ones and we were told to sit in the corner and later served a half cooked pizza and cold fries. Reluctant service which unfortunately became the way this resort was run throughout our stay. There is still some of the real lovely,friendly Fijian staff but the strict holiday camp way the restaurants are run do not account for a relaxed holiday appeal. Someone running this food and beverage side has forgotten about the customer and who is paying their high prices. Obviously some of the staff do not want to be working there and it shows in their attitude. Once back on the mainland it was nice to see the smiling faces again. There are other resorts in the Pacific Islands who welcome our hard earned dollars.

We made a last minute change at check-in and requested a bigger room, luckily they were able to accommodate and gave us the additional space. It was so convenient to everything we needed. Food, dancing, bars, water activities, swimming and good old fashion chillin. It was a good getaway for us. Also the themed menus at Copra were awesome too. We will be visiting again. Vinaka vakalevu

The room was a little run down; however it was clean and the staff serviced it regularly. The staff were very friendly and nothing was a problem. We only dined at Tavola; however the food was nice and reasonably priced. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there.

8/10 Very good

Our toilet overflowed a couple of days into our stay due to the septic tank being full. They emptied the tank but it took multiple calls to get someone to mop the bathroom floor so we could use the toilet again, and even then it was a terrible job cleaning it. Tavola isn't a good restaurant. Worse than an RSL. The buffet is ok. Black Coral is good. Highly recommend the trip to the sandbank for snorkelling if you have kids!! Proabably wouldn't return to this resort.

Super lovely staff. Lots of good activities and things to do and learn. Would be nice to have one pool designated for adults only. Very aware this is a family friendly resort but not all guests are families so one area that was child-free would be lovely

Plantation Island Resort is located on the most beautiful island and so close to mainland, just a 50 minute ferry ride to get there. We love having the option of multiple pools and swimming/snorkelling in the gorgeous sea. Tavola is a great restaurant too. PIR is a tropical paradise!

Good potential based on location however the resort is quite run down. The food options are very limited and poorly exicuted and the pools and beach are not as advertised and not equal to the price you pay. The staff are the saving grace for this resort but cant recommend this resort for others unfortunately, may be ok for large groups.
