The hotel is convenient for the airport. It has a range of facilities. The food is good, but probably a little better at The Gateway Hotel next door. There is a laundry but you have to pay staff for the service rather than wash yourself which some hotels allow with a guest laundry. There are strict rules about having guests on site who aren't staying at the hotel. Everything works fine and I would happily stay here again for what I paid to be close to the airport. However the shower whilst working, can only be used in a particular direction is straight down vertical rather than at an angle. When at an angle it floods some of the bathroom.
This stay at The Pearl South Pacific Resort was a real moment of happiness and relaxation. I highly recommend this establishment to all those who are looking for a luxurious and authentic getaway in the heart of Fiji. I only want one thing: to go back as soon as possible!
The staff were very friendly and helpful during my stay with them. I had noticed a bedsheet was not completely clean, but I was able to find cleaning staff easily and they were able to resolve the problem quickly. The Epic Transfers and Tours staff were especially helpful when I had an incident with a taxi driver that was unpleasant to me. The rooftop pool and bar was nice in appearance and the bar was nicely used, but the pool water was cold and nobody was using it. Additionally, although being a non-smoking hotel, there appeared to be old bins at the lifts / elevators with the cigarette ashtray-like tops on them; to be a non-smoking location, it needs to be clearly demonstrated as being just that, particularly where some countries still allow smoking in their hotels. The biggest concern outside the hotel rooms, though, was the buffet breakfasts, which sometimes had soiled tongs used by other guests that were not being replaced quickly enough with clean tongs; food safety needs to be a serious concern for any establishment serving food.
The room itself looked rather clean, had a patio looking at the wooded area out back; however, the patio door was not easy to lock and this was a bit of a concern with insects being readily present. There was also a sofa that could convert into a sofa bed, but it looked like it had a dent in the left arm. The bathroom was often stocked with new toiletries, perhaps too often as I was receiving a new bar of soap every day, but there was also mould trying to seep through the grouting behind the sink; I did inspect this and it seemed to be contained completely within the grouting, but it is a concern to be resolved soon. Additionally, though, the bathroom would sometimes smell horrible, as if you could smell sewage from the ventilation; there was a floor drain that could be the cause of this, but the ceiling ventilation looked like it needed cleaning and it was not sealed properly to the ceiling, either. There was a toilet paper holder, but it was poorly placed and it was evident it replaced another toilet roll holder that was in the correct location. Inside the shower, there was what appeared to be a stain running vertically down the wall where the shower head was located. The towels were kept clean and most had proper hotel labels on them, but some had the name of the hotel written on them, seemingly with a permanent marker, which was quite strange, especially for a hotel with a 4* rating.
The hotel has a 4* rating on Trip.com and has the amenities to be that, but the quality of those amenities needs to support their existence; otherwise, they cannot be considered. The staff were friendly and trying to make the stay as nice for me as they possibly could manage, so the issues mainly appear to be from a failure of the management and ownership not regularly checking the rooms and updating the quality and ambience of its hotel. Simply having 4* amenities does not automatically make a hotel 4* and although Trip.com has it listed as 4*, I would rank this as being a 3* hotel at the moment as they need to make further improvements to the hotel so that the quality of the amenities will make for a valid 4* rating in the future.
When looking at the hotel via any booking site, check out the other sites, too, and look up the hotel website, too, as that should exist. The images I saw on Trip.com were quite enticing, but they also include a picture of Jack’s of Fiji, which was not available on site, and random pictures of the outdoors that were nowhere near the hotel as it is located more inland and not by the ocean. The hotel is the biggest and most expensive element of any holiday/ vacation, so it is important to spend more time investigating each eligible hotel prior to seeking a room, and do not feel rushed by websites telling you there are only so many rooms left; there are many hotels in each location, so there are always options available.
We had a lovely stay at Mercure Nadi with our whole family and few friends! 💛 The service was great — the staff, especially the receptionists, housekeeping, waiters and waitresses, were warm, friendly, and attentive. The hotel also offers good facilities, and while it may not have the full amenities of a five-star resort, the people and atmosphere definitely made up for it.
My only complaint would be the bed — I wish it were softer, as I didn’t get the best sleep over the past few days. 😅 Unfortunately, I didn’t get the chance to enjoy the pool because of a packed schedule, but it looked really inviting!
Overall, a pleasant experience in Fiji. Vinaka! 🌺
We stayed in this good standard hotel one night before going by ferry to Yasawa islands. This was a great choice to have a relaxing transfer. The pool is nice and big - also all other facilities are well in shape. Footwalk distance we found the center of Lautoka for some easy local shopping.
One of the best ways to increase customer satisfaction and encourage more reviews from guests is by providing excellent customer service. Make sure your employees are well-trained and know how to handle any situation that may arise. They need to go out of their way to help visitors where they can, from personally booking tickets to scheduling itineraries for their stay. If any stressful events occur, they must know how to remain calm and deal with it swiftly. Making your guests the highest priority will ensure they leave with a positive lasting impression, and your reviews will reflect this.
The host of this hotel is very friendly and helpful. The breakfast is very healthy and delicious. I love how they always served it with fruits such as papaya, pineapple, and banana. The location is near shops, restaurants, and the beach. They are all within a 10-minute walk. However, if you are into diving or island-related activities, it will take you around 20-30 minute drive to get to the Marina. Overall, it's a good place to stay for a few days without hurting your wallet.
amazing facilities including pools, restaurants and a gym. Lovely views across the resort and also a beautiful sunset!! All staff were so great and welcoming. Only thing to note that it’s not greatly close to anything (walking distance) but taxis and shuttles are available to everywhere!!
I had a disappointing experience relating to service. My room had no wifi upon check in. I made the staff aware of this straight away, yet nothing was done until mid-morning the next day after I insisted it be resolved. All up I had to visit reception 2 times and call reception 5 times before they finally sent someone for a rather quick fix. When I called reception (outside of check in/out hours) often there was no answer. Furthermore, I paid for an oceanview room with 2 single beds, at check in I confirmed this was what I booked and requested that the room was not overlooking the pool. All these requests were ignored, and I was given a pool room with 1 bed, with no explanation for why.
While the staff are friendly (most hospitality staff across Fiji are), for a ”5” Star resort I found the service very lacking.
Excellent choice downtown Suva. Rooms are spotless and large. Gym and washing machines are very convenient. But the wifi is painfully slow at times - so slow that it becomes impossible to even read emails.
Very Good

SsereleaThe room was clean and comfortable. I stayed in a villa, so there were a lot of locks, which was confusing. The back door was out of place and couldn't be opened or closed.
The sea is shallow and very good for walking! The staff were also friendly. It was wonderful to have a welcome drink while watching the sunset.
It's a shame that the access is not good, but it's worth staying!
I told them that I couldn't eat breakfast the next day because of a remote island tour I had booked, so they gave me a lunch box. In the morning, when I went to the restaurant to get my lunch box, the chef didn't understand what I said, so he made it for me in a hurry. There was only enough for four people instead of five, but I was grateful that they made it early in the morning because I had asked for something.
GGuest UserWell the staff and people are all to accomodating. Lovely people , helpful and try very hard. Friendly and do their best. Rooms are dated and need maintenance, they were half empty so perfect time to do a room at a time. The bed has been turned around from the side of the room to the middle. Good outlook , but now no PowerPoints to charge phones etc. light switch you have to get out of bed to switch lights off at front door now. Configuration is out of whack. These need doing asap. No toilet roll holder. Just screw holes where it was originally. After complaining they fitting one. Shower head needed to move around to get wet. There are pack of dogs that frequent back of the resort. My first night I arrived 12 midnight. Dogs yelped and barked to 2am from what I know because I finally fell asleep. I told them about it. Seemed like they had some workers chase them away for a few nights. But there was 2 more nights the barking happened again. So 3 out of 6 night. Breakfast was good. But no bacon 3 days out of 6. Not on. Money exchange rate was awful. 1 to 1.30 Fiji. I actually went to resort up the road 1 to 1.42 , the taxi through the hotel was 30 Fiji dollars dearer than the rest. Example went to ghecko resort for dinner. 60 Fiji return trip taxi I booked. Hotel wanted 100. Need a profit but not accomodating guest very well. Booked outside all transport. Dinner was good assortment. But went out few times. Better cuisine outside. No wifi in the rooms or resort unless you go to the front reception area. Big drama. Heard numerous people saying this is ridiculous and checked out early. One couple booked in. Went to there room. Ask at reception where’s the wifi. Told only available here in reception. They said check us out now. We are going elsewhere. Could be a lovely resort. Staff workers are all there. Area and position is good. Just need management to get their stuff together. First is wifi immediately and then rooms maintenance
GGuest UserQuite happy with my stay, Doubletree is ideal for a solo retreat in a quiet place or for family, you’ll find both peace and leisure activities for families. Excellent service and helpful staff, I stayed 2 nights and enjoyed it, the staff accommodated me with early checkout and late breakfast.
AAndyTraveling with family (2 adults + 3 kids) from USA. We had a great time there. Kids absolutely the pools/beach/soccer field/the grill/pizza restaurant by the pool. Very quiet, peaceful and beautiful. We have been to Tahiti before and found this Marriott Momi Bay is even more relaxing, romantic, and picturesque than Tahiti. But there are also some cons: 1) the location is in the middle of nowhere (though no so far from Nadi). So once you are there, you will be pretty much stuck there; 2) food at the main restaurant is just average. They have an Asian food section for breakfast/dinner buffet, but quite a joke (to our standards, as Chinese Americans). The fish bar is awesome but requires a bit of walking/buggy ride; 3) snorkeling wise, the fish is not as colorful as in Tahiti, but is still very good; and 4) the layout of our room (2 beds by the pond) is not so much different from an upscale city business hotel. Overall, if you are just looking for a relaxing time in a resort, this would absolutely be great place. But if you are looking for a new cultural/food/city adventure, this would not be the right place.
NNadia777!The place is good if you need to get to the airport in the morning or plan to take boat trips from the port, as the beach in the area is not swimmable. Wi fi in the lobby / room is not good, wi fi in the restaurant: good :) the dorm room can be cleaner tbh, but it’s cheap so can’t complain
People are nice and friendly. There’s a bicycle rental nearby and o highly recommend renting e-bike and drive around.
