Serenity is a beautiful island and resort. We loved the location, the water was amazing and great snorkelling opportunities. However, the dining really let it down for us. The food was not very good and very expensive, often things would be out of stock for our entire stay (a large portion of the menu) and on one morning the buffet was pasta and grilled chicken and fish which seemed a bit odd. They definitely run on Fiji time here and we were often waiting hours for the boat for our excursions.

The biggest downside was the food, i highly recommend you buy your own food before going to the island, because the only food available is whats on the menu. Thats it The food was below average and at time not eatable. There is a shop for buying junk food like noodles and biscuits but its super expensive The breakfast which was included in price is good, they do eggs! And they provide fruit and its a buffet rather than a menu When you book, choose ocean bure up to 17 you can swim in front of, any bures (rooms) from 18 to 33 have rocks so impossible to swim. And they do not do room swaps! The garden bure location is actually good too! On the plus side, The people were amazing they made us feel part of the family which is why i will definitely go back!! The free activities were really good: turtle feeding fish feeding weaving oil making cava drinking and more The water around the island was so clean and clear that we could snorkel from anywhere, corral was very close to shore and fish everywhere Snorkeling gear and kayaks were free including life jackets which was amazing They have good coffee and nice cocktails Note that you need to pay for bottled water. Rooms were very nice and comfortable, hot water and shampoo , towels etc provided Also a nice hammock in front of room and 2 chairs to sit We loved our stay and will be back thank you serenity island and it’s lovely people

We spent 3 nights at the resort with our 4 year old and 6 year old. We enjoyed that the resort was quite quiet - we never had a hard time getting beach chairs, tons of space at the beach, we could grab paddleboards and kayaks throughout the day. The staff was very friendly and kind to our kids. The resort maybe isn't the fanciest in Fiji, but we had a great time and appreciated how it was more laid back and calm. The food at the restaurant was good, the spaces around the resort were clean and we could see staff cleaning throughout the day in the common spaces, and there were activities throughout the day we could participate in if we wanted. Overall, I would recommend the resort.

Unforgettable stay!
I’m so excited to share the wonderful experience I had with my family at Serenity Island Resort. From the moment we approached the island, we were greeted with a joyful welcome song and a delicious drink. We arrived quite early, but Grace and the rest of the crew were ready to receive us. We have 2 young kids, and the room we booked was spacious, cool, and comfortable. The grounds are beautiful and well-kept. This is not a perfectly polished and manicured resort. It is a little more rustic, which, in my opinion, makes it more enjoyable and authentic! The staff on the island were so warm, caring, and engaging. They invested their time and energy into treating us (and everyone else) like family, especially our children. For a portion of our stay, they were the only children on the island and were treated like treasure. Emosi, who manages food and beverage was always considerate of their needs. The food was delicious. We embraced Fiji time while we were there and it made everything so much more enjoyable. No need to rush. There is never a wait if you sit back, relax, and enjoy the views, sounds, and delightful people. We have visited some hospitable places, but nothing compares to the welcome, hospitality, and joy of staying at Serenity. I really could go on and on about it, but I will say with staff like Grace, Emosi, Danny, Nemo, Saki, Sammy, Ulamila, and many others, Serenity Island Resort stands out in ways I never imagined. Fabulous experience. I highly recommend.

They had a great variety of food on their menu They offer so many activities every day like grass skirt, making Fiji culture and language, coconut oil, making, Fijian food, cooking demonstration. The Snorkeling and kayaking around the island were excellent as well. Nemo And Sammy The resort directors were fabulous!

For anyone looking for a very quiet holiday, Serenity definitely ticks that box. There were three members of staff at the resort that were absolutely wonderful: Sammy, Oula, and Sereana. They really made sure to try and take care of us during our stay. Unfortunately, other than the beautiful surroundings and the three staff mentioned - I would not recommend Serenity to anyone. The food was absolutely terrible, the bartenders couldn’t make a drink to save their lives. I would not drink anything there that didn’t come out of a bottle…just because you simply did not know what you were going to get, but you knew it wouldn’t be good. We were thoroughly disappointed with our stay, enough so that we left early just so we could get a proper shower and experience some decent air conditioning. We had a 10 day stay on Serenity, and trust me - one night was enough.

Serenity Island Resort is on a gorgeous little island. It is peaceful, and the staff are very lovely and welcoming. The bed is sooo comfortable. Fell asleep listening to the waves on the shore. The only thing that prevents this being a perfect place is the food and service in dining room. The food is barely edible and takes ages to arrive. Example a BLT took 1.5 hours to arrive and then the fries were cold. Would benefit from having a much smaller menu and doing the options well. Avoid serving leftovers from dinner for breakfast.

Serenity island could be so much more. The staff that work there were fantastic and did the best they could do with the resources available to them. Always friendly and happy!. To bring the island up a notch, a safe in each room, a coffee maker in each room (not instant ) have someone walk around the island and clean garbage that washed ashore every morning. Have a proper waste and recycling program….its there Fiji!! Fine tune the dining experience, try an electronic bug light/zapper to control flies. And lastly this is a big No No , don’t have the gas and diesel storage next to the dining area as you can smell the fumes in the dining area, and don’t unload fuel drums into the water in front of the guest!!! For the price point it was good these are items that I believe should be corrected. My biggest like was the Fijian staff, their friendliness and easy going way and how much they embrace there culture!!

Serenity Island Resort gave us an unforgettable experience, which we could not have had anywhere, esp. staying away from the mainland. Being our first time in Fiji, we wanted to have an enjoyable Holiday and Serenity Island was perfect -- away from crowds and the daily hustle/bustle. The Booking was perfectly managed and the Trip to the Island was perfect. The Welcome at the Island was amazing and from the time we landed, we were made to feel like we were at home. We opted for the PalmView Bure. Although it was nice, clean and quiet, Beach Bure would have been a better option. There were plenty of activities around the Island and we stayed for 7 Nights and especially enjoyed the Turtle Feeding, Fish Feeding off the Island, Setting up the LOVO, Removing the LOVO, Volleyball with staff and the Coconut Demonstration and Tasting with Daniel. My Wife enjoyed her 5-6 days with an artistically hand-made Coconut Leaf Beach Basket, which sadly we could not carry back. The Food was amazing, and the portions were huge. We had gone for an All Inclusive Package and that was a good pick and it came with an excellent choice of drinks. Both the food and the drinks were presented nicely. There was a wide selection of dishes from the Menu and even after 7 days, we had more options we could have tried. The Beauty of the Island was mesmerizing and the sunset was divine. We thank all the Staff who went out of their way to make sure that our 25th Wedding Anniversary was memorable. "Sota Tale"
