wouldnt recommend lautoka
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 3/1/06
my boyfriend and i stayed here for 3 days. (we are 22yr old white americans) lautoka is NOT your typical tourist destination, in fact we were the only tourists we saw there. i like being off the beaten path, but this place was kind of scary, the kind of place you dont want to be after dark and there arent any beaches nearby. the hotel itself isnt bad especially for the price. the staff was friendly enough, helped us get cabs etc. and the room was fine ( we got the one that includes a bathroom, i would definitley reccommend that!) we got the room that had the fan and it did a fine job. it was pretty empty when we were there (jan 5-8) except for some locals using the pool. lautoka doesnt have any good restaurants or nightlife that we found. we didnt know what we were getting into before we went so hopefully this will help someone before they make our same mistake! we also met people that had similar situations in nadi..after my experience i would recommend staying in the denaru area (where the sheraton hotels are) or on an outskirt island, i also heard good things about the first landing. hope this helps someone!

not the best
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/20/05
i found that it was very old school, the air conditioner was too noisy, the phone didnt work, the best thing was the pool! there was a smell of hospital every where we went! it was bearable though for $60 per night
