" We spent a week at Lomani Island Resort to celebrate my husband’s special birthday, and it truly exceeded our expectations. This boutique, adults-only resort is a quiet, peaceful, and beautifully The staff are are friendly, polite, and genuinely attentive. They even left a lovely birthday message together with a gift voucher organised from Canada on the bed—no fuss, just thoughtful gestures that made all the difference. The accommodation is clean, spacious, and very private. perfect for those seeking a more intimate, upmarket island experience. Despite the understated photos on the website, Lomani is far more beautiful and luxurious in person than the images suggest. The new spa facility is stunning. We were pleasantly surprised by the sauna—who would have thought of such an experience in Fiji? Breakfast offers a modest buffet but is backed by an extensive à la carte menu, with every dish being excellent. However, we were surprised that no coffee was included with breakfast. Also, an early morning lawn mower before 8am disrupted the otherwise peaceful start to the day. There were a few small hiccups: communication between reception, beach table staff, and the snorkelling tour team could be improved, and we couldn’t get iPad TV mirroring to work in our room. That said, the in-room WiFi was fast, even if it was a little slower in the common areas. Despite a few minor issues, Lomani Island Resort remains, in our opinion, the best resort on Malolo Lailai. It’s a real gem"

"The best holiday we have ever had. The most beautiful place we’ve visited and the kindest team looking after you on your trip. "

"The service from the reception staff was outstanding. We booked outside transport that was less than spectacular when we arrived and we were soaking wet, but the hotel welcome staff immediately brought us towels and a foot bath to make us comfortable, and assist us for in easy check in. The front desk staff was so very gracious and helpful with adjustments we had to make for returning by ferry when leaving. We did not dine in the restaurants so I cannot comment on that service, but we enjoyed the room service. The room itself was very clean and bed was super comfortable. I would definitely stay here again, the island is lovely."

"Great stay in garden room. Spacious room, not fancy but had everything we needed. Beautiful island, stunning beach, wonderful friendly staff. Meals were adequate for a 3 star resort and plenty of restaurants to choose from. Family group had a wonderful time. See you again in 2 years."

"Serenity Island Resort offered us a truly memorable stay thanks to the incredible staff who made us feel like family. A special thank you to Emosi, Nate, David, Peter, and Seru for their kindness and hospitality. Our oceanfront bure had beautiful views, and we enjoyed walking in the shallow waters at low tide, spotting purple starfish and other sea life. Snorkeling was good all around the island, and the sandbar trip to the coral walls was a highlight. The resort is older than pictured online, and some equipment like kayak paddles could use updating, but the experience was still lovely. The handline fishing was fun, and the staff fried up our catch for a delicious meal. The lovo dinner was another standout. We recommend the full board meal plan as the food was fresh and varied each day. One challenge was with their reservations team, based off-site, who were out of sync with the actual resort schedule. Activities we pre-booked, like massages, fishing, and scuba, did not match what was available, and we needed medical clearance for scuba that wasn’t communicated. It’s better to book activities once you arrive. Despite a few hiccups, Serenity Island Resort offered a wonderful experience filled with warmth, culture, and beautiful scenery. "

"The Oceanfront Family Bure with a hammock between your Bure and the ocean, beautiful touch. Our family of four had plenty of room to sleep comfortably. Enjoy snorkeling, kayaking, paddle boarding, mini golf, karaoke, or just bathing in the sun. Enjoy the experience as a day trip or stay over night and feel connected with other guests and the staff. The passion from the traditional Fijian songs to the Sunday evening church option makes this tiny island a unique experience. You can't help but enjoy your time there. It's the first place where I never opened my work laptop nor thought about working. VINAKA!"

"Tadrai Island resort was an amazing experience. The sights, the food, and staff were some of the best we have ever had."

"Stunning magical place to celebrate my partners 40th birthday! Snorkelling off the beach, crystal Clearwater! We loved our stay here and the staff had a massive part in this, could not do enough for you and so friendly. Food is amazing too, bbq buffet was my favourite but over all it’s all good. Had a beach front bungalow which was a good size and perfect spot. Sunsets cocktails unreal! Recommend doing the meal plan as it’s not cheap, shame there was no drinks package as we would have done this too. Thanks to all at the resort for a great stay, also our 3 yr old bit loved it too, kids club is great. "

"The only thinng I wish would have been different is more menu choices for meals. If you stay more than 4 days I think you will get bored of the same choices for food. I wish I had an option to order a steak or a Yasawa lobster. Also make sure you get all of the menues for lunch. "
