Our stay at Tropica Island Resort was nothing short of incredible, truly a slice of paradise! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warm smiles and genuine Fijian hospitality that made us feel instantly at home. The resort itself is stunning, with breathtaking ocean views, crystal clear water, and beautifully maintained grounds. Our bure was spacious, clean, and perfectly positioned to soak in the peaceful surroundings. Waking up to the sound of the ocean each morning was unforgettable. The staff were the highlight of our stay - so friendly, attentive, and always going above and beyond to ensure we had the best experience possible. You can tell they genuinely care about their guests. The food was exceptional, with a great variety and fresh, delicious options every day. Whether it was breakfast by the water or a romantic dinner under the stars, every meal felt special. There was plenty to do if you wanted to stay active (snorkeling, kayaking, cultural activities), but also the perfect environment to completely relax and unwind. If you’re looking for a peaceful, adults-only getaway with amazing service and unforgettable views, I cannot recommend Tropica Island Resort highly enough. I’ll definitely be back!

Myself and my partner had a 4 night stay at Tropica Island Resort and we could not be happier with our stay and are so grateful to all the staff there who helped make this trip so memorable. Location: Due to our flight arriving later after the last ferry departs we got a private water taxi with Sea Fiji (kindly organised and arranged by Tropica) the transfer from airport to there port was smooth and a speedy (45 mins) journey to Tropica, despite arriving at 7pm the amazing Ledua greeted us warmly and with a speedy check in process gave us all the information we would need and directly showed us to our ocean front bure with pool. Our return journey we took the ferry which only took an hour, would highly recommend the location if you are staying for a short period of time in Fiji, want to get off the mainland to get that gorgeous Fiji island feel. Atmosphere: We intended for this stay to be a very relaxing one for us and this resort suited this well! It is a lovely relaxed vibe with the people making the atmosphere warm, welcoming and fun! All the staff we met in passing or in conversation would always greet us with a Bula! After a day staff would know our names and even our meal/drink orders! To name a few Junior (tended to lead the evening bar during our stay) was so attentive to making sure we were having a great time, always "welcoming us home". The boys IlIesa and Gaby by the activity bure, they made sure to give us all the recommendations of activities to do and places to snorkel or kayak, they also participated in some touch rugby with us which was great fun and It was great to see them having fun in what they do day to day. The lovely ladies at the restaurant were so warm and wanting to conversate with us about our day and remembering our coffee/drink orders! Finally a mention to Ziggy who took time to talk to us about Fijian culture (over some Kava) it was great to hear about the island and the culture of its people. Cleanliness: Our oceanfront bure with pool was perfect! The room was perfect temperature with air con and fans and room service attended morning and evening for turn down to ensure the room was clean and bottled water topped up. Our pool was also maintained daily and overall grounds we always saw staff working on the grounds to maintain the beautiful surroundings. For those considering a special occasion, we got engaged here and it was made to be extra memorable, the staff did everything to make sure we were having the most special evening. We had a gorgeous meal (also huge mention to the chefs as all our meals were outstanding) at a private table specifically created on the resorts pier, it was gorgeous during sun set and the lovely lady (we are so sorry we can't remember her name, she will know who she is!!) who accommodated us that evening was genuinely so happy for our engagement despite only knowing us for a day by this point, she ensured every moment of the night was perfect. Overall we would highly recommend staying at Tropica Island Resort, it's adults only and a relatively small resort making the environment perfect if you are wanting a relaxed stay in a gorgeous setting, the people are what make this resort so we say Vinaka to you all 💙

My partner and I stayed at Tropica Island Resort for 3 nights in late September. We decided to stop in Fiji on our way to New Zealand from New York to get a bit of sun and beach in. Tropica Island Resort, for the price point, was exactly what we were looking for. Good food that didn't feel repetitive, friendly staff, and a very clean and secluded room. We did a few activities at the resort itself, such as snorkeling, spas, and relaxing at the pool. But the highlights of the trip were certainly the dives – easily coordinated from the front desk. The islands just off Nadi are all expensive and built up, so this price range did have some drawbacks, but we knew this going in from other reviews. No proper sandy beach at the resort, and not much exploration to be had on the island itself. Nonetheless, it was exactly what we were looking for to relax and enjoy the sun and warmth on our way to New Zealand.

The Tropica family looked after us from the minute we arrived. No need for a watch or my phone, just slot into Island time, swimming, snorkelling, paddle boarding, kayaking, cocktails and yummy food. This was my first visit to Fiji and I already want to come back. The goodbye serenade as we left was beautiful. Sota Tale!

We stayed at this resort for 7 marvelous days. The staff was very welcoming and friendly. The dinner menu rotated nightly but there was also an all day menu. We had an amazing time with plenty to do like swimming, snorkeling and kayaking. There were also other adventures that cost extra. The spa services were plenty and I had 2 massages during the week. Both were deep massages and also relaxing. Our Bure (hut) was right on the water and it was fun to watch the low and high tides. The hut had the bed, couch and desk when you first entered, with lots of floor space. The toilet was in a closed off space and we had access to two private showers, one inside and one outside.
