Serenity Island Resort

Nice location with good snorkeling all around the island. Beautiful area. Lovely staff. The rooms were a bit dated but the bed was comfortable and it was nice to have air conditioning. The food was ok. The vegetarian options were quite good. I loved having a little beach right outside my bura. All in all a nice stay. Vanaka!

Bula We can't say enough positive about each and every staff member. They are all friendly, helpful, never make any request feel like a burden and know your name from the minute you arrive. The room was clean and comfortable. The bar has limited selections but okay. We were disappointed that there was 1 menu for each meal and it never changes. As we were in there in the low season, the buffet and traditional cooking night were not available. Food was prepared fine but lacked seasoning. There are no between meal options, fruit etc, available. If you like to snack, bring things with you. The common areas really need some updating. The staff do the best with what they have,but the owner needs to put some money into paint, replacing pool decking and cushion etc. This resort is not suitable for anyone with mobility issues, you take one boat from the marina and then have to change to a smaller tender boat to take you to the beach as there is no dock. The ocean access from your Bure is very rocky and the sand coarse, recommend bringing water shoes. We loved the staff singing to greet you and send you off.

Staff amazing, location amazing.

The staff was excellent, however the resort needed repairs, and several things in our room did not work. We finally moved to another room. Also, the availability of food and drinks was a challenge.

The staff were excellent and friendly and always willing to help.

Not an overstimulating environment with some activities available. Loved the wooden slats on the windows. Not crowded.

The Island is quiet with only the hotel for meals. The staff were amazing, friendly, knowledgeable and no effort was spared to please from Wee in management to Peli teaching us the history of the culture. The breakfasts were more than adequate with hot and cold foods, fruit, toast, banana bread, cereals of many varieties. The day/Evening menu could do with variation but presented well. Drinks/cocktails change daily. I absolutely loved the island as a single adult. For children it is lacking. They have snorkeling, canoes, padel boarding and a variety of daily programmes from fish and turtle fishing, cookery, island hopping language lessons etc. Serenity by name and serene it surely was.. I will definately return. Great introduction to Fiji. A must if you just need chill and recharge your batteries.

TV didn't work the whole time I was there. No one could fix it. Waited three days for a replacement hairdryer. If I didn't ask again I would have never got it. Some cash and shoes stolen. Food is terrible and over priced. Lady at the restaurant not friendly and it looked like I was a burden to her. Facility run down and broken. Not a good experience. Some of the other travelers agreed.

90 % of the cabins were oceanfront. Comfortable bed. Nice deck and a relaxing hammock. Great staff especially Cero.

Amazing destination!

We have just spent 12 nights on Serenity island and loved every minute. The staff are so lovely and helpful especially the restaurant and bar staff they made our holiday very special! The food was good we didnt have one bad meal lovely salads, burgers and amazing curries and the traditional buffet was amazing. We stayed in a garden bure and it was lovely private and well equipped bed was comfy and room was cleaned every day to a very high standard. We went all inclusive so food and drinks between the hours of 7-9am 12-2pm 6-9pm were included which was plenty lovely cocktails and nice cold beers and a great varied menu, as its an island if they didn't have all the ingredients for they improvised which was great and totally worked, big hands up to the chef ! There are plenty of beds and large bean bag beds by the pool for everyone and there are huts along the beach with beds in to soak up the sun and atmosphere. There was singing every night at 8pm and if you had a birthday or were new to the island or leaving they made it extra special. The sea is amazing and you can snorkel or take out the kayaks, we saw some amazing fish was just beautiful! You can walk around or through the island which is great and takes about 30 mins. The staff do thier best to make your holiday fun there is a board refreshed every day with activities free and paid for we especially loved the crab racing event was great fun ! We would definitely recommend and definitely go back!

Serenity certainly lived up to its name and is an incredibly beautiful and relaxing island. My husband and I along with friends enjoyed the most amazing 10 days. From the beautiful welcome to the farewell song, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel at home with family. Everything was always done with a beautiful smile and friendly Bula. The location was an absolute dream with our bure right on the beach with the crystal clear water only steps away. The rooms were clean and comfortable. Snorkelling was next level amazing, there are no words...... Sunrise, sunsets and walking around the island everyday was another highlight. We enjoyed every minute of our stay and cannot wait to return asap 😊

Travelled as a solo female traveller the staff were friendly and very accommodating food was really nice and would love to stay again.

Isilated and peaceful. Great facilities. Exceptional staff.

I love the location of the island. The water was amazing. The staff need more training, but were lovely people The whole resort is very tired and some parts of it are very rundown

Wonderful resort to getaway for a relaxing holiday. Beachfront acccommodation good and close to to water, a bit rocky during low tide. Staff make the place, friendly and always willing to help, tradionitional songs each night. Food in restaurant good, included breakfast limited but does the trick - eggs made to your request. Water and off island activities available, highlight for me was Malika traditional Fijian massage, went everyday I was staying. Solid 3 star resort, great value for money and not many kids, great place to relax and unwind.

What an incredible time we had on this beautiful island. The staff welcome you as family and are so generous of heart. We couldn't believe the accommodation was right on the shore and everyday is like a day in paradise. The snorkeling out the front of the island was phenomenal. From spectacular coral gardens to a myriad of fish every day. We enjoyed walks around the island, joining in the activities and the incredible views. I would go back in a heartbeat. The accommodation was clean, very comfortable and perfect for relaxing by the water. Embrace 'Fiji Time' and slow your own pace at this lovely island. Each night your are treated with a series of songs from the staff and joining in the staff volley ball game is a highlight.

Shockingly horrible experience, confirmed by several other groups who said serenity is one of the worst resorts if not THE worst, in Fiji. Broken kayaks, literally 6 lounge chairs by the rundown pool, no chairs for bure decks, no hot water, service unfriendly (shocking in Fiji), and oh - we were left for 1.5 hours on a neighboring island because they didn’t pick us up (common according to south sea island). What a shame. We dug into the resort and they are apparently going through bankruptcy, which is how it feels! Under no circumstance should you stay here!

Property needs a face lift. Lots of amenities and buildings way past due remodels. Broken walk way boards, horrible lack of simple fresh water in the island to drink.

Serenity Island is beautiful and the snorkeling around the island was amazing! The staff at Serenity were wonderful and treated us like family! We enjoyed their beautiful singing everyday and the meals were delicious! We loved our ocean front Burre! Note for management purchasing more complete paddle boards with fins & paddles, and kayaks & paddles and snorkel gear to allow for more guests to enjoy the water sports would make experience even better.
