Just amazing

Plantation Island was everything we could have hoped for and more. The staff were beyond wonderful and the grounds and accom were perfection. We stayed in a 2 bed garden room and it was clean and comfortable.

Food was good, service sometimes slow but you're on Fiji time so it doesn't matter.

100% would go again. Just magic.

A lovely resort with room for improvement

Whilst we had a good time and appreciated kind staff and enjoyed the buffets as well as kidsclub and complimentary water activities, we really would love to see improvements in the following areas:
- the ability to take bikes outside of the resort as it would be nice to explore the island.
- provide a cupboard so we can hang shirts and dresses (room 288 didn't have one).
- ensure meals are consistent, including delivery time and quality
- provide simpler breakfast choices like toast with spread as that's what most kids eat.
- simplify the 'kids eat free' program and ensure your staff understand the rules. On arrival we couldn't get into Tavola and were forced to eat at snack hut. Staff could have advised us that our child could have eaten for free at kidsclub.
- teach your staff to handle pressure. It is very frustrating to be told restaurants are booked out for our preferred dining time when we could clearly see the restaurant is only a quarter full.
- Please offer another affordable dining space with asian inspired cuisine so we're not eating the same things in Tavola all the time. We didn't visit Black Coral as the price you pay for steak you have to cook yourself is simply too expensive.
