Overall, we had a great time. The resort itself was nice - could definitely use some upgrading though. The staff was very friendly. However, speedy they are not. I get the whole "Fiji time" thing. But for the expense, the staff shouldn't be bringing you the wrong meal nor should it take 2 hours to check out and get to the airport. There were lots of good activities (at extra costs) however the schedule can be unpredictable. We were only there for 5 days and we couldn't do a lot of activities because there was some big group there so by the time we tried to sign up, they were always full. We would love to go back to Fiji but we will likely explore other resorts before booking with Sonaisali.

Explore Polynesian culture in Auckland, then head to Rotorua to visit the stunning hot springs

Auckland

Situated on New Zealand’s North Island, Auckland is a bustling hub and home to the world’s largest Polynesian population. Visit the Auckland Museum to see an extensive collection of Maori and Pacific Islander artifacts. Just south of the city stand the towering peaks of the Hunua Ranges. Here you can hike to waterfalls and go horseback riding through the forests. Additional experiences to add to your vacation:

  • City of Sails: You’ll see scores of sailboats here, and with good reason: situated between two harbors, the city is almost surrounded by water.
  • Take a ferry or kayak to the islands of Rangitoto and Motutapu. Explore lava tunnels and enjoy panoramic views of the gulf.
  • Visit Waiheke Island to see great beaches and a wine tour around the island.
  • Bungee jump off the Auckland Harbour Bridge—the sport was invented in New Zealand. 
  • Take an optional city tour to see Auckland’s most famous sites, and/or explore the surrounding wilderness on an optional eco-tour.

Rotorua

Rotorua is a lakeside town (also on New Zealand’s North Island) with an enchanting landscape of geothermal pools, geysers, and springs. In Waimangu Volcanic Valley, you’ll see fumaroles spouting water amid lush tropical vegetation, sulphuric rocks, and azure lakes. Additional experiences to add to your vacation:

  • Dive into local history at the Rotorua Museum, which houses woodcarvings and weaving crafts made by of the local Te Arawa people. There’s a great view of town from the roof.
  • Tamaki Maori Village: Share a feast with local Maori people and enjoy a performance of traditional songs and dances.
  • Meet a kiwi bird at the live kiwi enclosure at Te Puia. This geothermal valley is also home to the famous Pohutu Geyser.
  • Explore the Waitomo Caves: Thousands of glowworms cast an eerie light in long underground chambers.  
  • Hobbiton Movie Set: Take an optional tour to the Hobbiton Movie Set, where scenes from The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings were filmed, or get to know Rotorua on an optional city tour (additional fees apply).
