Sunrise Beach

The hotel is not luxorius by any means, but the trip was amazing. The island is very small, takes less than 10 minutes to walk around. The sand has corral in it. However, I would go back any chance I get. If you are looking for a younger crowd and a good time, this is the place to go.

Overall, we had a good time. The staff weee very welcoming and nice and the food was above expectations. However a couple items to be aware if you stay here: We chose the all inclusive option but it’s not a true all inclusive resort. Food and drink are only covered during “meal hours” which exclude 2-6 pm. Their system to track all inclusive guests is also faulty as they rely on paper receipts to tally up drinks that don’t have time stamps. So at checkout I was surprised with large charges for drinks that should have been included in the all-inclusive package. Thankfully the staff was great about making adjustments at check out. The only other negatives were that we never received our welcome drinks and communication with staff was difficult (both taxi arrangements never showed up) and room didn’t have bath towels for a day. Not a huge deal but an inconvenient nonetheless.

It was perfect for our extended families needing to stay close to Nadi International Airport (5 min drive) for an early morning flight to Australia or, in our case, a late flight to Canada. Thank you to the hosts for allowing us to check out at 7 pm. Plenty of bedrooms exist for large or multiple families, each with its own ensuite. The communal family area overlooked the pool and views of the Fijian mountains. The pool was super-clean and a suitable temperature for extended swims. The entire estate is behind two security gates, so we felt very safe during the evening. There was also a brand-new supermarket only 3 minutes drive that had everything you need to drinks, snacks and cooking. Our only concerns were that the WiFi was only working in the communal area and that the air-conditioning wasn't turned on before arrival, which required a few hours to cool down each room. The hosts greeted us on arrival and showed us everything we needed. Thanks again for your hospitality.
