I stayed here July/Aug as a Gold. My fifth stay, and I was upgraded to a one bedroom deluxe beachfront (from the standard garden room I paid for with points) with full kitchen, BBQ, laundry and shared access to a plunge pool, close to the adults only complex, which meant a newer villa. Not sure what upgrade you might get n a first stay, but the HH recognition is now better (IMHO) than it was two years ago - I think the whole place was at a low two years ago due to stalled investment plans.

Full breakfast in the new restaurant buffet, which is not as good as the a la carte breakfast used to be in Maravu (which now only opens in the evenings).

Some things don't change, reception is still what it was - i.e. not very grand, and the service can be a bit haphazard. But its still my happy place, I can be in the sunshine 5 hours after leaving home, and its so easy to walk the 15 mins to the Port in the evenings (or a Bula bus ticket is about $8 FJD for a day) if you want some dining variety.
