What Should You Expect from Local Staff at a Fiji Private Resort?

Fiji is widely regarded as one of the friendliest countries in the world, and for good reason. Locals in Fiji are certain to welcome you to Taveuni with a warm smile and friendly greeting. From the moment you step off the plane, you’ll notice the acceptance of visitors on these islands. And the open generosity and friendliness don’t stop at the airport, your entire trip is certain to be a series of genuine and lovely interactions with the Fijian people.

Other than this well-known welcome and the famous Fijian greeting of bula, what can you expect from hospitality and local staff at a Fijian private resort?

Refining Fiji’s Hospitality Sector

The best word to describe hospitality throughout Fiji, from backpacker hostels to luxury villas, is genuine. Local staff in Fiji take substantial pride in their work and for the most part love their jobs. The result is an effortless kindness during your stay in Fiji that is entirely authentic and real. However, it’s difficult to reconcile genuine hospitality with a refined or formal form of service. And for a long time Fiji’s island attitude permeated all aspects of the tourism sector, and even in the high-end resorts, staff tended to be informal and lax.

At a Fiji private resort, you will still find a genuine approach to guest services and concierge. You’ll receive honest answers to your questions and upfront advice. You will also note the same friendly approach that’s defined Fijian hospitality. However, formal training and introduction to specific skills have also improved other aspects of Fiji’s hospitality.

Whereas tasks and timing were once regarded as minor details, staff are now fully prepared to provide a topnotch experience. Today, Fiji’s private resorts offer some of the best services in the world.

Regard for Privacy and Discretion

Another defining characteristic of the local staff and management at a Fiji private resort is incomparable recognition of privacy and discretion. At a boutique, private property, such as Raiwasa Private Resort, the staff is skilled at appearing, as if by magic, at the perfect time – and otherwise giving our guests total and absolute privacy.

The combination of acute awareness of guest needs and wishes, yet seeming to disappear at all other times requires immense dedication by our Raiwasa staff and fantastic leadership. As your local hosts, Richie and Rosie not only bring extensive experience to their roles but also provide an excellent example for our staff of 12.

Incredibly Personal and Attentive

Private resorts should be specifically designed to deliver an immensely personal experience. However, achieving this vision for a property relies on everyone involved. Ownership, management, must stay committed to the entirety of the guest experience. It’s a commitment, you’re certain to find at Raiwasa.

We often say that Raiwasa delivers an experience and level of service that is beyond a 5-star resort. And truly, the experience of staying at our property is distinct from anything a typical resort could provide. A great deal of this distinction is owed to a staff that quickly learns the wishes and whims of a guest and tailors the overall experience and interaction to suit. No detail or personal request is left undone or unaddressed by our team.

Replicating the Feeling of Home

Finally, visitors to a Fiji private resort are impressed by the staff’s ability to make the villa feel like home. We truly believe that for the duration of your stay, Raiwasa is all yours, and our staff impressively quality perpetuates the fairytale that this beautiful place is your home.

For a week, two weeks, or longer, Raiwasa can be your home away from home. During your stay, our staff will impress you with their knowledge of hospitality and service and the genuine approach in which each request is carried out.
