Hey Lykkers! If you've been dreaming about a tropical escape with stunning beaches, delicious food, and an unforgettable experience, you're in for a treat. Outrigger Fiji Beach Resort is the ultimate getaway for families craving relaxation, adventure, and a taste of paradise.
Here's a sneak peek into our unforgettable 8-night stay at this magical destination.
From the moment of arrival, Outrigger Fiji Beach Resort enveloped the family in warmth. The friendly "Bula!" greeting felt like a personal invitation into the island's embrace, setting the tone for the entire stay. After a smooth three-hour flight from Brisbane and a comfortable 1.5-hour transfer, excitement built up as the resort's lush greenery and coastal beauty came into view. The phrase "Welcome home" took on a whole new meaning as everyone felt instantly at ease in this tropical haven.
One of the highlights for families with little ones? Kids Eat Free! Lulu, our youngest, received a green armband upon check-in, granting her access to free meals throughout the resort. The kids' menu offered plenty of tasty options like burgers, pasta, and tropical fruit, ensuring every meal was a fun and delicious experience. Parents, this is a game-changer—delicious meals without worrying about the tab!
For the adults, Outrigger Fiji truly knows how to deliver on culinary delights. Seafood lovers will be in heaven with a variety of dishes featuring fresh local catches. Whether it was the simple fish and chips or a flavorful plate of Kokoda (a traditional Fijian dish), every meal was a treat. The resort boasts eight different dining options, each offering something unique, but the beachside Sundowner Restaurant won hearts with its amazing sunsets and mouthwatering prawn pasta.
Meals were flexible too. With various packages—such as full-board, half-board, or à la carte options—guests can tailor their dining experience to suit their needs. Whether indulging in a buffet dinner or enjoying a laid-back meal by the ocean, there's something for everyone.
What's a holiday without a little pampering? A couple's massage at the Bebe Spa was the perfect way to unwind. The tropical setting, soothing Fijian tea, and skilled therapists provided an unforgettable relaxation experience. The Fijian massage was pure bliss, and even the spa's panoramic views were enough to make anyone feel rejuvenated.
Cool down after a day of exploring the resort's lush surroundings. Choose between the adults-only pool, the main pool with its poolside restaurant, or the expansive lagoon for a swim or snorkeling adventure. The lagoon was a highlight, with crystal-clear waters and vibrant coral reefs teeming with marine life. For those craving more action, complimentary kayaking and paddleboarding kept everyone entertained on the water.
The resort's accommodations are as stunning as the surrounding landscape. Our family stayed in a newly refurbished Ocean View Room that provided breathtaking views of the palm trees, gardens, and turquoise waters. The room was spacious, with modern amenities, including Pure Fiji products in the bathroom—a treat for anyone who loves luxury toiletries.
And then there was the Talai Butler Service. Every evening, our butler delivered canapés and drinks, including soft drinks for the kids. It was a lovely touch that made the stay even more special. The little things, like personalized greetings and thoughtful surprises, truly made Outrigger feel like a second home.
Though it was tempting to simply relax by the pool or lagoon, Outrigger offers a wealth of activities for everyone. From coconut bowling to water aerobics, there's no shortage of fun. Kids can enjoy the Kids Club and Teen Programs, while adults can explore the cultural offerings, like a kava ceremony or Polynesian Fire Show. There's even a Meimei nanny service for parents who want some quiet time while their little ones are in great hands.
