Vaishali Shah - Antilog Vacations Fiji Review AVB0096560

My husband and our daughter both are a big nature lover and we finalized a Fiji visit to surprise our daughter on her 9th birthday, as it is top part on her holiday wishlist. We were beyond impressed with the services of our tour operator ‘Antilog Vacations’ more than our expectations. Truly thanks, to a dedicated team for offering us enticing array of distinctive relaxing options during our Fiji visit. We don’t need to deal hard or pay enough time to our tour planner. We were able to fulfill our wish with Antilog Vacations tour representative Mr. Prabhat Arora. He quickly and calmly managed the things with the blend of options for our complete family taste.

Traditional Fijian massage is the part which I really liked the most. It was a great soothing experience with the range of options like Thalgo therapy, Duavata island style four handed massage, mud and algae wraps. Here, I also want to share our Sabeto Hot Springs and Mud Pool experience. Entirely, it was full of fun and entertaining experience where we have to get a bucket full of hot mud and rub it all over the body and wait till it dry. Then go to a hot pool to wash off this mud from your body. It was a nice healing treatment for our skin and body. With the help of a staff member, we also enjoyed family photographs.

As per the planned itinerary by Antilog Vacations, we had a nice stay at Sheraton Fiji Resort. It was truly stunning in the tropical oasis of Denarau Island. We enjoyed all the luxurious amenities in the lush green setup. This beautiful beachfront resort provides a feel of heavenly setup on the earth. The professional and cooperative staff of Sheraton Fiji Resort provides a great experience of ideal family holiday with an array of dining venues and leisure activities. We also had magnificent outer activities with our visit at Kula Eco Park, Garden of Sleeping Giant, Arts Village, Port Denarau Marina, Denarau Beach and related attractions which have their outstanding charm.  

A big thanks to Antilog Vacations for this exciting and satisfied visit. Truly, we all loved the place and enjoyed the overall treat perfectly offered by you. Highly recommended services!

Pankaj Bhandari - Antilog Vacations Fiji Review AVB0097855

We were equally excited to view the efforts of Antilog Vacations (our tour planner) during our recent holidays to Fiji. We had high expectations, after reading their positive reviews from the end of satisfied customers. While entering in beachfront luxury accommodation of Radisson Blu Denarau, we had a fairy tale like feel. Truly, we had no words to explain our excitement. Antilog Vacations, guys you really did beyond than our expectations just in a standard budget.   

In this 5-star property, our room has a lagoon view with lots of special services for our family vacation. The staff was very polite and cooperative, we received almost everything or any additional service on a single request. I really appreciate their professional services and all the timely efforts to offer a complete wonderful stay. They offered appreciable fine dining arrangements with a romantic waterfront view. We had a memorable time at every location of sightseeing attractions or even from the pool area, room, restaurant and almost everywhere.

We had a great time at Sabeto Hot Springs and Mud Pool. Truly, it was relaxing and wonderful experience with an organic and earthy feel which was absolutely covered in mud. After scrubbing, we were delighted with oil massage. Truly, our skin feels good after took a bath from such geothermal water. We also had an unforgettable time at Kula Eco Park where we get the chance to closely view the endangered species of the place. We enjoyed this Eco Park visit through zip rail.

Definitely, it was a thrilling experience and enjoyable too. We were really impressed with the conservation and educational programs operated there. Thanks Antilog Vacations group, for overall offering the best time.

Mudit Varshney - Antilog Vacations Fiji Review AVB0098456

I was very excited to go to Fiji last week as it was my first visit to the island and though Fiji is not as much popular as some of the other isles but this aspect of less visited places particularly engrossed me as I like the virgin and pristine locales a lot.
The Sonaisali Island was the first place on my radar there and Antilog Vacations booked my stay there. It was an excellent hotel of the famous Mamanuca Group located by the Pacific Ocean. I had a look at their website before travelling and I liked what I saw.
The first thing which struck me was helpful nature of the resort as they had sent a chauffeur driven car to the airport and I had no hassles at the time of the check in even though my flight was late by a couple of hours.
As I moved into my deluxe bungalow I saw that that the Sonaisali Resort was actually a small boutique property with a niche existence. It had nine spacious bungalows and given that I was travelling in the off season, only 2-3 were filled and thus I was able to get the perfect room.
The room was close to 600 sq ft in area and had a huge window in-built into the main wall just opposite to the entrance. The huge lagoon was visible from the windows which I understood later was the resort’s pride as it was superbly maintained and consisted of various coral reefs. A visit to the beach is a must too.
Free wi-fi in the room was quite helpful too as I was travelling alone and the speed was good probably given the low number of guests at that time. Thus I would definitely recommend this hotel to all. ☺

Ramya Venugopal - Antilog Vacations Fiji Review AVB0097895

The trip to the Mana Islands was a pending quixotic wish for me and my husband which materialized only because of an excellent 5 day, 4 night package in the website Antilog Vacations. The package included air travel, accommodation and sight seeing and was available at a completely affordable rate. This travel site is highly recommended if you are looking for a trip to the islands which were formed through volcanic and geothermal activities starting around 150 million years ago.

The picturesque Mana Island in the Mamanuca Group contains the Tadrai Island Resort. The Resort lies 15 miles from the main island of Viti Levu and another 30 kilometres from Nadi International Airport. Our stay in Mana was a ‘complete’ one with great milieu, delectable food, friendly staff and grand swimming pools. The coral reef and the sandy beaches were also a stone’s throw away from the main resort thereby amplifying the locational advantage of the Tadrai. The best part of the resort is its idyllic charm and how it cut us away from the daily monotonous life and presented us with an opportunity to converse with our other side.

The rooms were neat and well maintained. They were of approx 45 sq mt in area and my wife particularly like the violet velvety pillows which provided a nice contrast to the bed sheet. The bath was well equipped with toiletries and the view from the windows was stupendous. The crew was very friendly and gave us many tidbits about the history of the place.

The Fisherman's Village was another major tourist attraction there. It was around 10 mins from the resort. We took a cab to visit the village and the fare of the same was nominal. Various themed restaurants and bars outlined the flavor of the island there and thus all in all we ended up having a great time.

Kiran Saran - Antilog Vacations Fiji Review AVB0097590

Browsing through hotels before visiting a place is one of my favourite pass times as you not only have a plethora of options at your disposal but also get some useful knowledge about the place and its surroundings. Consequently while planning a trip to Fiji last month I surveyed through a lot of travel portals. My husband had given me a free hand in choosing the resort and consequently I read all the reviews of hotels in Fiji in the travel portal Antilog Vacations and finally zeroed in on the Namale Resort. The site also prognosticated that the time we were visiting was the best season for staying in Fiji and we were on our way.

We reached the resort promptly as it was close to the airport. We had booked the double deluxe room and the receptionist directed us to our room immediately. The room was majestic with luxurious wardrobes, LCD TV, split air conditioners, refrigerators. The majestic double bed by the window also provided a nice view of the outlining greenery. The butler reminded us of our freebies – a free massage and complimentary breakfast!!

The foot massage was so relaxing that we ended up taking some more of these and also whole body massages in the consequent days. The therapists were skilled and the assortment of massages offered was also diverse. The service and attitude of the other staff members is praiseworthy. The dining centre was a boutique place. The chef complimented it with the most delectable dishes and choices.

Next day we visited the Nananu-i-Ra Island — off the northern coast of Viti Levu. The coral reefs are also located quite nearby and hence reef viewing is quite easy if you are here. Thus we had a lovely time at the Namale and would definitely like to return here in the future.

Sanjay Bhargava - Antilog Vacations Fiji Review AVB0096298

I visited the Fiji Islands last spring with my wife. Holiday leaves were at a premium as we both were working but we managed to get through our approvals and decided to pack our bags and enjoy a trip to the isles.

We stayed at the Koro Sun Hotel, a place which became famous after being featured on a popular primetime reality series, The Bachelorette. Our reside at the Koro was superb, well managed by Antilog Vacations team. From the exterior the hotel looked very elegant with parquet flooring, crafted walls and sculptures. The main essence of a resort – the maintenance staff and the crew were very efficient. The reception area had decorated walls and clean floors.

The rooms were around 40 sq mt in area and were quite spacious and airy. Their bed sheets and towels had a nice and pleasant smell. The staff looked interested on more than one occasion but I felt that they were more eager as the resort lacks a proper manager. Most of the times they worked on our advice and instructions.

The food was quite tasty throughout our stay. For all the 4 days the menu comprised of the various sea food stuff with multiple variance. There were soups and desserts in the buffet. The resort re-worked on their menu and increased the option of dishes on offer frequently to increase the footfall and guest engagement.
Hence all in all I would recommend the resort and rate it very highly. However this resort is worth a visit only in case you are planning to visit a few nearby places in and around the multicultural Savusavu area (called the Hidden Paradise) and going to stay for 1-2 days. The fact that most of the popular tourist attractions are located nearby would be beneficial for you in that case. All in all, it was a great effort and a part of well managed services by Antilog Vacations.

Bhavish Aggarwal - Antilog Vacations Fiji Review AVB0096930

I visited the picturesque Fiji Islands with my wife last week. We made our bookings via this online travel portal Antilog Vacations and we must confess that we had a mix of a time at the isles. Pre-booking through Antilog Vacations took care of all hassles and ensured a rejuvenating vacation. These guys have become quite renowned for planning trips to the Fiji Islands in a short period of time and the site is definitely worth a dekkho in case you are southward bound.

The Koro Sun Resort in the island Vanua Levu was our abode for our Fiji sojourn of 5 days and 6 nights. There were adjoining bamboo cottages in pairs throughout the resort and the two special rainforest Cottages located on the southern end provided an unheralded view. These cottages were comparatively more popular in the resort. We got a room in the bamboo cottage as the rainforest cottages were already booked.

The Koro guys had methodically planned the rooms and hence there was little scope for improvement. The view from the rooms was breathtaking with the serene Loto Island Cave right visible from the balcony. One caveat here based on our experience is that our cottage being a sea facing cottage had its entry via a cumulative rise of stairs. The stairs were quite steep and provided no alternative like lifts etc. Hence these rooms were not very conducive for elderly people.

The food in the Bay View restaurant initially appeared quite delectable and we enjoyed the spread on the first 2 days. But by the end of our trip it had become repetitive and hence quite bland.  Also my wife sometimes found the food a tad too spicy. The breakfast buffet though was really good and they changed the menu on every day. Thus overall a recommended stay.

Antilog Vacations Fiji Review - AVB0096193

I visited the geothermal active Fiji Islands with my family – my wife, children and parents last week. We stayed at the Koro Sun Resort during our 4 days stay at the islands. We made our bookings through the popular online portal Antilog Vacations. The portal was beneficial as it reduced the lead time for bookings considerably and we were able to enjoy a hassle free trip.

The resort was near to the airport and gave a very pleasant feeling as we entered. It was very sparkling and orderly and well maintained. The large bungalows and the deluxe rooms were both available at the resort. We got a large bungalow.

It was close to 550 sq ft in area and had adequate space for the 5 of us. The room consisted of two chairs and a plastic table and two double beds. On request the third bed was arranged in the room for nominal cost. The bath had decent white tiles and was spacious too. An assortment of toiletries was available too.

We checked out the hotel premises on the consequent days. One thing we noticed was that in general, all bungalows were quite white. Between two rows of bungalows there were hordes of coconut and palm trees. The sea was pretty close to the palm grove too around 7 mins on foot.

The food at the Koro though tasty but was not the best cuisine on the island. My parents thus relished the fare at the smaller northern islands bordering Fiji’s second largest island. The food was not very spicy and not very bland - perfect for their buds. The third village restaurants located nearby had much more choices and hence is worth a check in. At the other side close to the fifth village cafes were cheaper too. Thus all in all the Koro Sun Resort provides a recommendable option for travelers to Fiji. Meanwhile, never forget to appreciate the best efforts of Antilog Vacations team.

Visit to Fiji - AVB0098651

Our trip to Fiji last year is still vivid in my memory and I wanted to review our abode there – The Namale Resort. Firstly a word about how we booked our commute and stay – we booked it through the online travel portal antilogvacations.com and decided the Namale based on reviews and pics available on the site. The site was informative and the pics were supplemented with numerous reviews of this resort. Moreover the resort was recently won the very prestigious ‘Traveller’s Choice 2013' award and both my husband and I decided to give the Namale a go.

The arrival was smooth from the airport as the travel agency had arranged for a cab and the entry to the resort was also grand. We were welcomed with a welcome drink and a cold face wipe. After getting ourselves refreshed, we were directed to our rooms. We got a sea view room. While going towards our room we walked across the swimming pool area which was flanked by the bar.

The room was very comfortable and spacious too. It was around 50 sq mt. Sitting in the balcony was a fascinating experience with the view of fishermen gnawing their way into the seas and the cool sea breeze acting as a perfect foil. The room was replete with most kinds of superb accessories and furnishings like large majestic Thai styled beds, LCD TV, large patio with privacy screens etc.

The food at the Namale was a tad disappointing. The choices in the menu were very limited. One good alternative here is to visit the Hibiscus Highway, around 15 mins away from Namale which has a delectable menu and serves an authentic buffet. The service of the staff though is noteworthy at Namale and the manager is an informative fellow. So a recommended stay despite the food aberration.

Meenal Shah, Mumbai (Visit to Fiji)-AVB0018222

There are no words to portray that totally impeccable, a mind boggling trip that we took to Fiji. As I would see it, this visit was flawless due to all the effort set forth by our tour specialist and her organization Antilog Vacations.

Before sharing this experience, I want to reveal a secret. Basically, this outing was a 35th birthday present to my husband and as per the planning it was a tour of two people, exactly me and my husband as a couple. But as the time went on, both my dad and mother-in-law chose to go along with us. I have an exceptionally extraordinary style of travel and that is quick and cover as much as you can. So, have some disappointing feeling, but cope up with the situation. But, due to some emergency at work just 5 days before the travel, my father-in-law has to cancel his plan and so that of his, mother-in-law naturally cancels her.

The things were in quite difficult situation for my tour operator. But, she managed the overall changes without putting a single disturbance on our side and arranged the entire bookings related to airfare, lodgings, local transfer and sightseeing for both of us with the cancellation of the other two members.

Micky was our operator and we feel she did a remarkable, brilliant and awesome job. We made several outings abroad and were somewhat worried about going on this holiday with a new travel agency (Antilog Vacations). For that the whole credit goes to Micky !! Every one of our exchanges, visits and associations went precisely as planned. Truly, no hiccups or late shows by any of our visits. Everything was proficient, perfect and in the exact direction which we expected. The lodgings were precisely as guaranteed. Actually, it is a part of online review on which basics, we decided to book this tour from Antilog Vacations. Truly helpful!

I must share few highlights about our memorable moments:

  • Sunset Cruise.
  • White Water Rafting.
  • Matamanoa Island is one of awesome attractions of Fiji. Here, you'll get a real tropical getaway feel.
  • With a small distance from our room, we fully enjoyed the place with the snorkeling like joyful activities.
  • Similarly, Castaway island is a pretty awesome site for snorkeling. Even, we also visited the site which is popular among movie shoots.
  • Garden of Sleeping Giant.
  • Boat ride on Navua River.
  • Shopping in the local craft market.

Overall, it was a great trip with friendly staff, eye pleasing sites and a variety of dishes. Both my husband and I were satisfied with it. Thanks Antilog Vacations for offering such lifetime memories that will completely be cherished.

For us, it is definite to go with the best group of travel operators 'ANTILOG VACATIONS' to further continue this kind of non-stop enjoyment in our future tours. Good Luck! Go ahead exactly on the same track and happily cover the expectations of all of your customers.
