Tropica Island Resort

We had a lovely relaxing stay at Tropica with great food and a lovely bure. The staff absolutely made the difference - including Sarafina, Litia, Laisa, Junior, Joe, David, and Sam (to name a few) - who all were so caring and friendly. There special attention and hospitality made us feel so at home. Thank you!

Stunning location with breathtaking scenery! The real magic, though, is the people — Kitione, Ziggy, Mosese, Viri, and the whole team are simply amazing. There’s never a dull moment with so many activities happening all the time, yet it’s still the perfect place to relax. Can’t wait to come back!

We specifically chose Tropica because it was adults only and faced west so we would get the sunset. It is closer to Nadi than we usually stay, but we still took a helicopter there which was great - meant we had virtually a whole extra day there as our bure was ready when we arrived at about 11am. It is a small resort so never felt busy. because of its location there is no service road round the back of the resort so when sitting out the front of our beach front bure at certain times of day there was a constant stream of staff or vehicles back and forth. For that reason, I would recommend staying in one of the bures behind the restaurant, as being beachfront wasn't that great - it is not a particularly stunning beach and there are no beach loungers/umbrellas etc. The bures are quite plain and basically fitted out - no bathrobes or wine glasses (first world problem!) and no wifi, which for some is a blessing and worked well for us. The Rejuvenation Package was great value and we chose not to by the Meal Package as in the past that has led to us overeating. In the end, we saved money doing that. Some of the meals were fabulous, and none were bad. And as ever, the friendliness of the staff was wonderfully friendly.

We spent 12 days at Tropica and had an amazing time. The staff are very kind and go above and beyond to make your stay memorable. The snorkeling right off the beach is AMAZING. We had many "favorite" staff! They were all outstanding. The singing! They can REALLY sing! We were captivated each time they sang for us. The food is delicious and the rooms are comfortable and they provide whatever you need. There are many day trips available via resort boats and captains. We have snorkeled many different places and we were blown away by the snorkeling both at the resort and nearby. We really loved the Garden Reef Snorkel trip, Sandbar Snorkel trip and Cloud 9 day trip. You can see unique sea life and coral at each spot. We also did the Castaway Island day trip. It was really cool to see the site where the movie was filmed. I recommend watching it before you go if you haven't seen it. It changes the experience. Highly recommend the resort. If you are on the fence you will be glad you chose Tropica.

Unfortunately our experience was very average….no internet in your rooms and this was never mentioned in any advertising….….the food was not great…tough meat (inedible) and the portions were very small ….calamari three small pieces. The staff kept saying they would do anything to assist us during our stay ….each time we asked for assistance they would say sorry we can’t help with that. And we had hut number 1 and at 5 am one morning we were woken by work men on boats ….we had been told to expect noise at 9 am….we told staff nothing done….Also sitting at our pool and about 5 dogs ran through our pool area fighting….was actually scary….again nothing done….please ask to be moved if you get hut 1 as close to staff quarters and you hear talking etc…constantly…..disappointing especially when paying over $1000 aust per night.
