Thank you to everyone at the Fiji hideaway resort and spa.
This was the first time my family and I had visited and we had an absolutely delightful time.
The staff were fantastic. Everyone was so friendly and consistently smiling and willing to help out.
The food, especially the tandoori chicken, was such a highlight.
In terms of the room, the room was lovely. We had the family room which managed to sleep my mom, dad, my 9 year old niece and myself.
