"We booked 2 glamping villas, one for us and the other for our 17 & 22 year old sons. From the moment we were picked up by the red boat, we were made to feel so welcome with everyone we met giving us a huge genuine grin and a “Bula”.
The people, the food, the pool, the snorkelling and the glamping villas were all awesome. Simi makes the best lemon, lime & bitters at the bar.
The glamping villas were next level with all of the amenities of a hotel room while also feeling like you were camping on...
"I had a wonderful stay at The Fiji Orchid.

"Room was beautiful and staff responded promptly to our needs. Breakfast was very good, however, prompt refills needed. Check in Check out was easy. Hotel placement is excellent as many amenities are within vicinity."
"It’s my favorite resort in Fiji! Great for families with small children, they have many activities and facilities catered for them. Service was excellent and the atmosphere is friendly and pleasant. Will be coming back soon"
"The staff at this resort are by far the most friendly and helpful i have ever encountered. The scenery, wildlife and amenities are fantastic, the food is good and reasonably priced, the fish bar being our favourite. Solid wifi across the whole resort, adults only pool available, lovely beaches and the bure felt very luxurious, overlooking what felt like a private beach. Great selection of drinks, huge selection if food at breakfast, including free flowing mimosas, just a genuinely stunning place.
I only have 2 criticisms to make, and they are minor.
Firstly, the sandwiches from the cafe were absolutely disgusting. No butter, hard bread, questionable ham. Not a problem if you are staying all inclusive but if, like us, you are paying, I would honestly avoid. Also, the resort has an upmarket feel throughout, big, gorgeous, solid furniture, beach views, fantastic staff, beach buggies to drive you around, sunsets, heaps of free toiletries etc, but the cleanliness of the soft furnishings throughout the resort really hold it back on feeling like absolute luxury. As silly as it sounds, it was hard not notice that the day beds were dirty, as were the couches, the towels were often a bit tatty, and the chairs in the buffet and waiting areas were mucky. Not a problem, and definitely not a reason not to go, the whole place was amazing, but sitting in someone else's suntan lotion sweat does take a teeny bit of the otherwise shimmering resort away for me."
"Friendly professional staff all the way.
Delicious affordable meals.
Lots of varieties and catered well for kids and adults and Muslim meal and vegetarian dishes.
Good sanitation and hygiene
Clean rooms and washroom.
Nicely organized team serving and accommodating our request and showing concern. No discrimination.
Very well planned and lots of pools and restrooms and
Pool options. Pools clean and crystal clear water. Freshly served food. Coconuts and drinks option endless.
Wish you all good health and wealth.
Good management very professional.
Moce and hope to see you again.
God bless the team and
Management and all involved.
Parking is very convenient."
