Coral Coast Romantic Holidays

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.

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

A great family resort (the best on the coral coast) and one of the few in Fiji that genuinely caters for toddlers right through to teenagers. Big points for the free nanny service during breakfast, and for not counting teens as adults until 17 - unlike most resorts who make the switch at 12. Would I come here if I didn’t have kids? No. But if you’re looking for somewhere to stay on the coral coast with kids - this is the place.
