STAY AWAY!!! Money making operation!!! TOO EXPENSIVE AND QUALITY HAS BECOME POOR, FOOD WAS NOT INCLUDED AS IN PREVIOUS YEARS AND STAFF KEEP EYE ON EVERYTHING YOU EAT, DRINK, AND TOUCH. THEY WOULD CHARGE FOR AIR WE BREATHE IF THEY COULD. Boat ride 1 Way is $300 American, BLUA BIKES RIPOFF, SOMEONE TOOK OFF WE MY 10 olds daughter bike we renter for $50 for 24hours. They charge and keep charging while quality has suffered, along with quality. We stayed previously in 2023 and had great experience, but this time we stayed and will not spend $1700.00 for 2 day stay, NOT EVEN CLOSE TO BEING WORTH IT. IF YOU THINKING ABOUT IT, DONT DO IT. WASTE OF GOOD MONEY and be ready to be liberated from your cash. BTW, on our way back waiting for ferry, guy tried to explain someone stoked his wallet, but staff not having it. Him and his family sat in corner trying to make arrangements for payment. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED FROM SOMEONE THAT HAS BEEN THERE WITH FAMILY 2 years in a row, NEVER AGAIN!!!!

Plantation Island is an absolute paradise for families with young kids or teenagers. There is so much to do 4 beautiful pools, a beautiful (yet tidal) beach and lagoon, Bula bikes, snorkeling, paddle boarding, small yachts, kayaks. Our kids are not usually ‘kids club’ kids but the little one went a couple of times with their cousins and enjoyed it. Made a very cute ty die t shirt which he wore the rest of the trip. The new cabanas around the pools are awesome! It never seems too busy. Some beautiful photo opportunities on the beach towards Lomani Resort. At High tide the beach is gorgeous around there. It’s our second trip, we stayed for a week and we will be back. I probably wouldn’t choose it for an adult only trip. There are a lot of kids which brings crying, whining, splashing etc. we did the sandbank snorkeling and dolphin safari. The snorkeling on the dolphin trip was amazing! Got to see dolphins too. We also did the sunrise Kayak. Very hard to get up at 5.30am but it was worth it. A great adventure for the kids.

The island was beautiful, the people were beautiful, the room was great. Food was ok, drinks were a little slow.. sometimes the drinks we ordered before our meal came after our meal. But loved the island and the staff will definitely be back,

The photos in review's didnt do this property justice. The view of the ocean and the tropical paradise resort is simply breathtaking

Great resort and fantastic staff. Could not ask for a more pleasant level of service.

Despite being a large and busy resort there is always somewhere you can have no one around. Also expire 2 other resorts. Heaps to do for teenagers and a good variety of restaurants. Clear water and snorkelling just off the beach.

Budget friendly. Not super clean

Just returned from nine nights (single Dad & two kids, 11 & 5) and we all loved it. I've been to Fiji a couple of times previously but this was the first time out to an island and it was definitely worth the extra expense. Water activities were excellent, in particular the water jungle and even the sand-bar snorkelling was good for kids. Food was pretty good, though it was difficult to get booked into anything other than the main buffet rom for evening meal, but we did go to Tavola twice. I'd probably only do 5-nights next time and go somewhere else too, but I would definitely return here.

Great for families, lots of activities to do. I found the food very expensive, especially for the buffet at Copra. Unfortunately we got sick and weren’t the only ones at the time. The doctor told us not to drink the filtered water, but we think it came from either the fresh fruits/veggies, or the pools.

Need new pillows in the rooms. Pillows are in horrifically bad state.

Staff are charming. It’s beautifully situated. Very family orientated. But also great for those whose children have grown. We will be returning!!

Beautiful views and friendly people

Great holiday destination. Perfect for kids

We really enjoyed our stay. Plenty to do especially with kids. Really liked being right on the water with good snorkeling at the reef or a short boat ride nearby. Look forward to returning.

We had read some average reviews on plantation island so had lower expectations than our previous stay at Castaway. We were pleasantly surprised at how great plantation was and rated it even higher than Castaway for a lot of things. The selection of great restaurants and la carte menus was fantastic. Also we were able to afford a beach bure which was amazing (the bed was only a queen though, would have preferred a king, and the set up of the room didn’t allow you to lie in your bed and look at the sea). We were right in front of the beautiful beach and turquoise water, near snorkeling spot. For the kids (our 4 and 8 year old) there were so many fun things to play on and the kids club was great. Note kids have to be 4 for the kids club or you’ll be paying a nanny $15 Fijian an hour). We bought a lot of our own food as don’t like to eat lots of buffet meals, there’s a fridge, but no microwave which we recommend booking before you come as it took us 3 days to get ours. We went first week of Jan which was nice. It rained a couple of times at night, but clear days to do activities. Was a bit on the warmer side after 10am to sit outside in the hammock and read so spent afternoons in our room while kids napped. Snorkeling at plantation wasn’t as good as Castaway but the short one hour snorkeling trips were well worth it and only $35 Fijian a trip so we did a couple. Loved the couples massage on the beach but the let them know where you want them to focus or you’ll be disappointed.

Great place for holidays. Nice resort, good customer service. Beaches are finest and plenty to do. Facilities are good. Would have been nice if there was more local food in the menu.....

Great resort
