2/10 Poor

returned after 7 years, won't come back again

I've returned to Crusoes Retreat after 7 years, hoping it will be the same resort I remembered. But aparently lot has changes. Resort is quite run down. They are working on some renovations, but still lot of work ahead. We were 4 adults, they have organised an airport pickup for us, but sent a small car. It was quite uncomfortable, especially when the resort is rougly 2.5 hours drive from the Nadi airport. But what really spoiled the vacation for us were some of the resort staff. Especially the old lady serving food and taking orders. Cant recall if I ever met somebody so rude and useless. She was unpleasant and never made any order right. Quite a shame as most of the resort staff was actually quite nice. The hotel is also quite isolated and without a car, there is not a lot of options to get out. Hotel restaurant is ok, but quite pricey for what they offer. They say you come as a guest and leave as a friend, but that was definitely not our case. After this experience, I am sure I will never return again.

We waited almost 2 hours bc check in time on this platform is 12:30 but in reality it is at 2. They gave us welcoming drink which was lovely. The staff were approachable but seemed too busy and out of touch sometimes. It was a lovely environment.

Absolutely awesome resort

This was one of the best experiences I have had with Hotels.com. Absolutely amazing from the moment I got to the property, to the minute I left. The beach was right at the foot of the property, the pool was awesome, the staff remembered my name, and Miki, the front desk hostess even lent me her phone charger. Dinner was great, rooms had amazing views. Absolutely worth the adventure.

The staff were amazing, always interacting with the guests. The food could be better. Beautiful location however can be difficult getting to places as a single traveler if you don’t have your own car.

A true Fijian experience

Absolutely perfect stay! We have stayed in 3 hotels on Fiji over the past 3 months and would choose Crusoe’s every time since staying there. It’s a true Fijian experience!

Stunning gardens and location, we came for lunch on a previous visit and decided to come back and stay. Lovely beach and village, we stayed 5 nights and had a great time. Plenty of activity for those interested. rooms were clean and new comfy beds with aircon and fan. nice to have a spa at end of day. The 2 young men running activities were awesome! Nice low-key place to chill out , good food and reasonably price but everything else great - would go back

I booked 3 rooms, on one of the rooms the fan never worked, the other room ac was fixed @ around 8pm, one room had a dead lizard stuck on the door
Salesh, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Heaps of palm trees made the view and the property look beautiful. Close to the water and very nice views. It was quiet, calm and safe. The staff was really nice and welcoming!! The bed was comfortable and we had a lot of space in our accommodation in general. The AC was perfect! We also liked the hammock. The outdoor shower was pretty cool too but unfortunately the water pressure is not that strong. The way from the Main Street to the resort is not sealed and you have to be careful with pot holes. It’s about 3km around 7minutes. Also, we would have loved to use the lounge next to the hammock a little bit more but unfortunately it was a bit dirty. We recommend getting a new cover for this one. Also, we suggest to get new hair dryers since the once provided are not the strongest as well. My partner and I are both from the hospitality industry and we know that these replacements are on the owner!!! and not the staff!!!

Crusoe's is a lovely option if you want quiet and secluded. The grounds are lovely, there's a pool and hot tub, perfect when it's rainy and the views from the bures on the hill is majestic.
