Sigatoka Hotel with Pool

"Have visited Shangri-la many times, glad to be welcomed back and find it just as we usually do - great place to stay."

"Our fourth trip there so that tell's you how much we love it. The staff, primarily the local grown staff, are incredibly kind and engaging. The food is at the same level with a "Thank You Cake" on our last night, a Breakfast Chef who made special gluten free pancakes for my Daughter N Law, and the Head Chef delivering a Crab Macaroni & Cheese to "test" for their Summer menu. All facilities are immaculate. It truly lives up to the Resort name as we don't see a need to go elsewhere even when we had a rental car. Snorkeling is a 5 +; don't try elsewhere (unless an outer island) as honestly it's no better. Local masseuses next door, do it! Currency exchange with hotel but only up to 200FJD so if you need more, do it at airport. What has digressed since Reef Safari is gone is Kayak/Surfboard availability and times. Specific tides dictate this due to reef exposure but when I ( 45+ years surfing) pressed on launching from Sand Bar, they said no. Hopefully tide times coincide with their operating hours for you. Surf? Yes, there is surf out front but you need a westerly swell to hit the reef. If you want more of the local vibe, get a ride to Sigatoka down the road for the Farmers Market and shops. Intercontinental Fiji is extremely accommodating and earns every bit of a 5 star. They think of everything and deliver on it with a smile."

"Excellent place to stay for families , staff friendly and attentive. Kids had plenty to eat and the choice was varied "

"This is our second trip to the Outrigger, and it was once again really lovely. Most of the things I didn't like had to do with the excessive prices and fees that guests are charged. Things I liked *Facilities and rooms are well-maintained, modern and clean *Spacious room overlooking the ocean, with all the amenities you need (fridge, hair dryer, nice-sized bathroom, safe) *Afternoon snack & drink each day *Lots of activities for adults and kids (particularly enjoyed free use of snorkels) *4-5 restaurants to choose from (we liked the Sundowner Bar & Grill the most) *Bebe Spa experience was nice (the view is amazing up there) *Love that there is an Adults only pool and restaurant *Free wi-fi *Detailed information about amenities and services available through an app *Ability to track room bill through your TV *Channel ABC Australia was available (good for AFL fans) Things I didn't like *No options to purchase fruit or healthy snacks, which is a shame given that there are no shops near the resort. *No Fijian food on the menus *3% surcharge for payment with a credit card is insane when you're spending thousands on your room bill or accommodation payment *10FJD fee and 900 FJD max withdrawal using ATM *Hotel transfer cost is high, around 160 AUD (can get for 100 AUD elsewhere) *7.50 FJD for a 1 litre bottle of water (they only give you 1 complimentary bottle per day) *Although the views and the general experience at Bebe Spa were nice, the massage itself was pretty average"

"Friendly and helpful staff Property well maintained but needs more lighting at night Great location of room Great variety of food and drinks but need more restaurants Meal plan not fully all inclusive (ex: room service fees, 1 choice for lunch and 2 choices for dinner on a la carte menus) Buffet needs improvement Limited TV channels Minimal night entertainment Not able to US dollars on property"

"Breakfast is included which was a huge array of different foods and you could bring small Tupperware to take some “extras to-go” to munch on later! ;) The water snakes are NOT poisonous. Staff is great and helpful. There was an adult pool tha seemed more for Seniors. The main pool was nice, even with the week-behaved kids for the adults to hang out at with the swim up bar. The hibachi restaurant is awesome and so is the one on the little island for seafood! Make sure you make reservations in advance for the dinner! The waterfall close by is closed so I highly recommend you do the RIVER TUBING where they take you to a huge waterfall about an hour away from the hotel!!!! (Ask the hotel staff that scheduled events - brochure pic is included in my review) They have a salon and do an amazing job for hair services. They washed and braided my hair for a reasonable amount. The braiding here is exceptional! They use very good quality products and the braiding was FAST! Make sure to book with them! :) Book your travel to/from the airport in advance. We took the bus for $15 Fiji $ but took almost 3hrs with the bus stops."
