Staff were so friendly!! Being steps away from the ocean was amazing and the snorkelling off the resort was great. Definitely go at high tide. The grounds were beautiful and the food was great! Only stayed for two nights but wish I could’ve stayed longer. Was incredibly relaxing

After 15 trips to Fiji staying in a wide variety of locations unfortunately this is the first bad experience we've had. Tambua Sands is a lovely location and a well presented resort. But I've never come across a place that had none of the positive feel and soul of Fiji. The staff were withdrawn and didn't appear to be enjoying themselves - the opposite of all of our other experiences in Fiji. The resort was quite empty, but although it said adults only we had a family with children in the adjoining Bure. This was the only resort in Fiji we've been to where we were asked to pay for the standard daily activities, with the reason we were given not making any sense at all. We were booked for 8 nights, but decided to leave after only 3 knowing we would lose the money we paid for the remaining nights - but we wanted to have our usual uplifting, fun, relaxing Fiji holiday. When we checked out the Manager came to see us and we were politely honest about our experience, to which she apologised and said they had to charge us for activities to help pay the land owners of the resort - however it is our understanding that this is no different from other resorts arrangements with their landowners. If we knew the money was going directly to a good cause we would have supported the idea. I really don't like writing my first ever negative review for any holiday we've had anywhere, but I feel a really good place has lost it's soul and isn't living and passing on the wonderful Fiji spirit

The overall venue is nice and clean, staff were kind, and we really liked our accommodation directly at the beach. The beach is beautiful. Breakfast was free for us. We had dinner at Tambua Sands several times, the food quality was great. I would have given 5 stars if not for the following reasons: - Swimming is not possible at the beach (it's a coral beach - you can go snorkling though) - There are no shops near the Resort, you better rent a car to get around - We think some items available for purchase at the Resort are heavily overpriced. You basically pay Australian prices or more, which I don't think is appropriate or fair. E.g. you pay $10 for a 1 litre bottle of water. - Breakfast is very very basic. Just toast, butter, jam, honey, peanut butter, plus fruits. Everything else must be purchased. - Food ordered for dinner took very long to arrive, sometimes 1.5 hours - We were mistakenly charged some of the expenses of other guests and it took the Resort too long to rectify this. PLEASE NOTE, Tambua Sands Beach Resort is NOT part of the Outrigger Resort in Korotogo. The current Google location of Tambua Sands Beach Resort is incorrect. Tambua Sands Beach Resort is located around 15km further towards Suva, just east of the small villaga Namada.

The property is well maintained and the staff is lovely. However, our air conditioner could barely keep the room cool during the day... it was really hot Also, meal service was very slow, even to Fiji standards. We were a party of 8 and time between food arrival to 1st and last of us could be close to an hour.

Good, but more could be desired..
Overall, we are happy with our visit to the resort, but I do have some remarks about missed cleaning of the bungalow on one of the days. The night light was constantly not working. There is not much light in the bungalow at night, and on top of that, our porch had no outside lighting. On arrival we were placed in connecting rooms which is unacceptable to us as a couple. The next day we were moved. The breakfast provided is a disaster and would be better off without it. One day I had to wait 1 hour for the gentleman who was in charge of the tours offered on site.
