Koro Sun Resort and Rainforest Spa

In Savasava for a Tony Robbins event, Vanua Levu was not on the Bucket List. Searching online for convenient 4-5* accommodation, which was close enough to access for those long 15-hour event days, and also provided ease of healthy food options without paying an "all-inclusive" premium, I wouldn't have time to enjoy. Koro Sun looked perfect. Airport pickup, ease of checkin, albeit I was early and used the time to eat lunch at the Sand Bar on the lagoon edge. I had the National dish Kokoda with fries, which I enjoyed. The Tropical Bure was situated close to the main reception and restaurant, which was perfect for those late night returns and early breakfast starts. A highlight walking back at night, the frogs. I loved the decor & layout of the Bure. It looked recently renovated and had a new bed, which was hard, how I like it. The outlook serene Rainforest, I can "suffer" this. ;) There was a kitchen bench, and the reasonable size fridge kept my requested ice solid for the three days I was there for my nightly Baileys. The bathroom was small, compact, and the only con unable to keep the large toiletries bag on the bench top. The pre-select meals were clunky, and as I was having to order both daily meals a day ahead, this created some communication issues. This is a reminder to anyone when there are 2 different languages and cultures to be clear about what you intend and that the receiver comprehends. Anyway, they were gracious with the mixups and resolved it where possible. The food, for the most part, is tasty, although a couple of times I misjudged the serving size. The highlight besides the breakfast staff, Maria, on reception... was my included daily massage. With Geeta (spa manager) accommodating my tight time windows and Alissi having the most healing hands for massage I'd received. I had a Fabulous time at Koro Sun Resort and am planning a return trip where I can explore further the rest of the island paradise.

Awesome staff, great food and relaxed to the max. The staff there were truely amazing. Plenty of activities and relaxation areas. Went to the waterfalls for a look and took a few snorkling trips, Rooms were cleaned daily and well...... what else can I say. Worth the trip.

We brought a group of 25 people for a wellness retreat and this resort exceeded our expectations. They staff was helpful, supportive and friendly. Beautiful property, exceptional clean rooms, and the staff blew us out of the water! Their warmth and kindness made our experience extra special. We will miss everyone and hope to return again soon!

This is a wonderful resort with an amazing staff! Namesake Philip was wonderful as were everyone else! Everyone is welcoming, friendly and happy to take care of you. The grounds are beautiful, the lagoon is warm. Only draw back is no beach but there is one near by. Food was delish, transfers were free, Will return!

We really enjoyed our stay at Koro Sun. Didn’t get off to a good start though. At check in the concierge Philippe, was more concerned with making sure I understood that we would have to pay extra for the wifi than letting us know about what was included in our stay. We didn’t learn that breakfast was included until our last morning (we were there for 5 nights) At checkin Philippe informed that the three bedroom villa we booked (over $700 Cndn/night) only included free wifi for 4 of our family of 6, and that I would have to pay extra for the 2. I questioned this, and was asked to ‘please understand that only 4 are included and the other 2 are extra’ whatever I said he kept repeating please understand…’, when we were walked to our room, he asked the front desk person who accompanied us to make sure that I understood that we would have to pay extra for the 2 additional guests. Sure it wasn’t a lot of money, but it was insulting to pay for a 3 bedroom unit for 6 people and to be drilled on understanding we would have to pay extra for Wifi. We enjoyed our stay and hanging out at the pool area next to the beach, the food was great. Due to the money grab on the wifi, we opted to book our excursions directly with JHunter Pearls, and Ocean Ventures for snorkeling, both were great!
