Fodor's Expert Review Radisson Resort Fiji Denarau Island

This resort made a big splash when it opened in 2007 with a magnificent rock waterfall as a centerpiece and the wow-factor, too, flows throughout. Guest rooms are spacious and stylish, while suites have full kitchens including all utensils and a large fridge. There's a kids' pool with impressive whitewater tunnel slide, an adults-only pool and, set before the beach, a third lagoon-style pool with a swim-up bar fringed by imported white sand. The four dining spots, one is adult-only, cover a range of cuisines, while Lomani Wai provides one of the most unique dining experiences you'll ever have as you sit at a table in a pool. The dedicated kids club is a bonus as is access to the Denarau Island Golf & Racquet Club. All this creates a less stuffy atmosphere than that of some neighboring resorts.
