I recently returned to Tambua Sands Resort earlier this month, my second visit, the first being 20 years ago and it was just as magical as I remembered. The resort is small and intimate, with just 21 bures, giving it a wonderfully peaceful atmosphere. I stayed in an ocean view bure, which was spacious, clean, and very comfortable. As a solo female traveller, I felt 100% safe at all times, both in the resort and exploring the surrounding area. The resort has a genuine “real Fiji” feel, with all local staff who make you feel like part of the family from the moment you arrive. Every team member introduces themselves and remembers your name, you’re never just a guest or a number here. The food at the resort was very good, and for something special, I highly recommend taking a taxi to the Crab Shack for dinner, it’s very reasonably priced with amazing food and a great atmosphere. What really makes Tambua Sands stand out is the people. I couldn’t possibly single out one staff member, from the front-of-house team, kitchen and bar staff, gardeners, activities and tour guides, to the security team and the amazing cleaning staff. Every single person worked together to create a truly welcoming and memorable stay. If you’re looking for a small, authentic, and warm Fijian experience, Tambua Sands is the perfect choice. I will definitely return again.

The prices of the food and drinks were over the top expensive and not enough options for food. The same boring breakfast every day, coco pops, corn flakes, Weet bix, toast, and a small selection of fruit, concentrated juice, tea and coffee long life milk. We ended up eating out most nights and so did other guests. No atmosphere at the resort. I have stayed at the Warwick before and this place disappointed.

I was traveling alone. I had my trip extended a few days, so I booked Tambua Sands. Its a nice place for the price. There were a few staff members that were great; but, overall, I found it to be a disappointing experience, to say the least. They were pushy about using their taxi people, (which significantly overcharged,) and claimed it was in the name of safety. Meanwhile, I had a random stranger message me on Facebook since the night I got there. Given that I met several friends on my holiday, I thought it might have been a mutual friend at first. After trying to get information from me, to which I did not respond, he sent me a video, clearly showing me that he was right in front of my bure. I reported this, and was met by an awkward "don't show this to anyone else. I will look into this further." Especially considering the "security" there, (nobody goes in or out without going through a gated entrance,) it was apparent that the staff seemed to know who he was. They assured me that they were investigating it. Since it was my last day in Fiji, they said they would continue to investigate and let me know the outcome. After arriving home, I received an email telling me that since I didn't actually tell him where I was, it was determined to be a "coincidence" and that the person had been "educated on how to communicate with guests," It absolutely was not a coincidence. It left me with a very uneasy feeling, and knowing that they brushed it under the rug made it more unsettling.

We loved the location, with wonderful snorkelling and beautiful grounds. Our bure was great, with good air conditioning. A car is a necessity when staying here. We travelled about to find good food, coffee and activities. We were on a romantic holiday, and struggled with the staff coming up to us constantly. We put in a request for space, and they adjusted well.

I have been to Tambua Sands 3 times in the last so many years. I found personally that it was better when it was a Non Adults Only Resort. When the kids were there it seemed to be more lively. My husband and I are in our 60s but to us it was too quiet.
