Koro Sun Resort and Rainforest Spa

Koro Sun is a nice and quiet resort, with a very kind and attentive staff who's eager to help you make your stay exactly the kind of holiday you want. I wanted to relax on the water, read, and enjoy good food, and the staff were happy to facilitate. While there plenty of activities on offer, I never felt pressured to sign up for anything I wasn't interested in, but I always knew there was LOTS to do whenever I wanted to. There were activites both on and off site, and I did end up going to a tour of a local chocolate artisan, where I learned more about botany than I think I've learned in 10 years of [trying to] maintain my own vegetable garden. The quality of the food available at the resort is definetly understated. The food here is beyond gourmet. Chef Mo is the best kept secret of Fiji. I wish we had food this good anywhere in New Zealand, but I'm not sure we do. His dishes were phenomenal, and honestly made me sad that I would likely never ge to experience them again. So good. You have to try a dish from Latitude 17. My room was comfortable and peaceful. I could hear fish feeding just outside, and the sunrise was amazing every morning. There was air conditioning, but during the day you can just open both doors and get a great cross breeze. I had some a wonderful time sitting on the back deck and reading, and then around high tide (the time of high tides are available in the morning newsletters) I'd hop in my kayak (provided by the resort) and row around the lagoon. Andrew from the Activity Centre accompanied me one day, and took me to see baby sharks and fruit bats. It was one of many highlights of the trip. Sara and Anna at the Sandbar Cafe were friendly and easy to talk to, and they showed me how to eat a coconut the Fijian way (I had been clumsily scraping meat from the coconut with a spoon previously). Sara also very kindly offered to deliver food for me after dark, because my night vision is poor. Everyone at the resort, in fact, was perceptive and accomodating. They all knew, by the end of the first day, that I was a vegetarian and that I didn't drink alcohol, and I don't even remember mentioning either of those things except to a waiter. Their internal communication must operate like precision machineryv It's frankly impressive. The resort grounds are beautiful, and definitely worth a stroll. Everywhere you look is beautiful. It's also hot, which maybe obvious things to say about a tropical Pacific island, but I admit that I'd underestimated just how hot it would be, even in the rainy season. Compared to the South Island of New Zealand, you'll definitely be warm all the time, and you just have to get used to it. Luckily, the heat is a great reason to get out onto or into the water, which is one of the main features of Fiji, so embrace the heat and let it drive you into the clear temperate water. You'll have a great time.

I don’t know that I’ve ever had such a relaxing vacation. The property is well managed, maintained and clean. The employees are friendly without being over the top.

This place was incredible. The grounds were beautiful. The staff was super friendly. Chef More is the best. The massage was top-notch up mountains with the rainforest sounds and water cascading down in the background. It was raining while we received our massage. I cannot express how amazing this place is.

Absolutely best holiday we have had for some time Staff at this resort are the heart and soul of the organisation. So full of joy that you cannot help but feel the same way Food was plentiful and delicious Plenty of activities available if you wanted to partake or you can just lay by the pool and enjoy the beautiful surrounds

Six days at Koro Sun was so relaxing and comfortable. The staff are “Salt of the Earth” always kind, welcoming and ready to assist. Our room overlooking the ocean was a dream. Housekeeping is top of the line! The food at the restaurants is above average but the atmosphere is fantastic. I recommend anyone who wants to enjoy these Fiji vibes to give it a stay.
